      More “left to rot” than ruined. Paradise was great too, and then there was nothing until Paradise Remastered (unless you count that one mobile game).

        Paradise was great, but I think strict tracks are way better than finding your way from point A to point B.

          It’s such a buzzkill to lose a race because you took a turn you shouldn’t have after blazing through the first 3/4 of it in first. For a game that requires twitch reactions at high speeds, it certainly was a choice to make players have to constantly take their eyes off the road to find the map.

            It was so frustrating. It would be better if they had tracks set up after you start a race.

    I’ve been playing Burnout Revenge on my Steam Deck recently. It’s incredible how well the Burnout series has aged, still some of the best arcade racers out there.

    Was just emulating this last night. Thank heavens for PCSX2 at 4k60. The art is so well done in this game it still looks awesome at high res.

    I still get flashbacks to the Tropical Drive Westbound time trial with the F1 car. Took me years before I got good enough to beat it. Also one of the first games that I got 100% on.

    Oh yeah! I played Burnout Legends on my psp for years. A couple years ago I pulled it back out and played it again, so many good memories.

    Loved listening to “Lights and Sounds” by Yellowcard

    I had a modded PS2 and this game (back up) came in two discs. For some reason the chip got damaged at some point and I wasn’t able to swap discs so I could only play half the tracks but it still was my favorite game on that console

    Burnout 2 is my favourite. Spent so many hours back then taking it in turns playing with mates. This and NFS Underground…

      There is a NFS underground 2 demo on here that really made me miss that game. The little Nokia phone notification sound was a huge nostalgia hit

    A couple of years ago, I played through Burnout 2 on the Wii. It’s still a fantastic racer. I’m sure I had Burnout 3 on the original Xbox but I can’t remember much about it.
