Alias: “Mom”

 I’m not a big player of video games but through the years I have had a few favorites, Dr. Mario, Contra, Zuma, and the Burnout series.  

I like Burnout revenge on the Xbox 360 more than the previous versions of Burnout. I especially like the graphics and the ease of play on the 360 version. The crashes are easier to control and still challenging. I like that you don’t have to “launch” your car for a crash, as you had to do before. In Burnout Revenge I really like the checking traffic, though the after touch does not seem to have as much control as the earlier versions.  

The graphics are so real looking. You can really see the progression of damage to the cars as you tangle with other cars, or walls!  I like the variety of vivid colors in this game. I especially like the green paint job.  

I like the concept of all the burnout games. I think because I drive for a living and have to be extremely safe all the time that the concept of wrecking the most havoc you can appeals to me. I also can beat my children when I play it and that is not something I do easily.  

And clean your room!
