If you got bored of burnout get this
Flatout mixes racing with party themed gaming such as the minigames where you have to fling you driver into gaint dart boards of using him as bowling ball.
The single player mode in flatout is resonably long and in some place quite challenging. As you progress through the career mode you can upgrade you car with performance parts and, if you feel like it just buy a new car altogerther. The game requries some skill as the ai oppents are no pushover, they will slam into when you try and overtake them. Sometimes the rubber band ai gets very frustrating because they seem to pull out massive leads. The graphics are impressive but still not much of an overall improvement from the ps2s graphics. The sheer amount of objects to destroy in each race is neverending. The load times are shorter than forza 2 so i haven't got a clue why gamespot said they were long.
overall i recommend this game to all of the burnout fans and generally to gamers who like to smash stuff up. This is agood fun laid back racer that you can just pick up and play for 10mins if you feel like it or you can play it for a longer amount of time with its highly addictive racing style.
