Burnout.
Not modern Burnout.
Burnout 1.
Some observations from an hour or two worth of play.
So in line with the reduced price it is a stripped back experience that does what it says on the tin. The handling doesn't feel as nuanced as Burnout 2 did and I think it is trying to ape that experience but include the takedowns from Burnout 3.
I'm glad it exists and I'm happy to pay for the title but I can see why it didn't set the world on fire.

Burnout 1.
Some observations from an hour or two worth of play.
- There are barely any options
- It doesn't seem like there is any music, I can link my Spotify account but I just CBA
- There looks to be a healthy amount of races to play
- It is too fast. Even the initial Sedan Class is too quick, maybe I'm old now but it feels like it starts far faster than it should
- The collisions are unforgiving, again, I don't remember the recent games being so punitive, the slightest nudge of pedestrian traffic results in a crash
