rules of the road and total domination. This time it’s personal. And
this time it’s on Xbox 360.

Revenge slams into the Xbox 360 with a suite of new online features set
to define next-generation automotive anarchy, jaw-dropping
high-definition graphics and the retina-searing speed that the Burnout
series is famous for.
Through Xbox Live™, the brand new Live Revenge feature tracks your
rivals and calls out those that need some serious payback. Build up
relationships with gamers that you take out, or take you down, and then
let Live Revenge track your hit list. It’s about long memories
and short tempers.

maps, Hollywood-inspired special effects and bigger explosions than

Burnout Revenge on next-gen still features multi-level tracks designed
for fighting, wicked vertical takedowns, explosive crashbreakers, a
huge array of gameplay modes and wide open crash junctions for epic
crash sequences that put Hollywood to shame, Burnout Revenge redefines
speed and aggression for the ultimate in vehicular combat.

About Author
Hi, my name is Charles Husemann and I've been gaming for longer than I care to admit. For me it's always been about competing and a burning off stress. It started off simply enough with Choplifter and Lode Runner on the Apple //e, then it was the curse of Tank and Yars Revenge on the 2600. The addiction subsided somewhat until I went to college where dramatic decreases in my GPA could be traced to the release of X:Com and Doom. I was a Microsoft Xbox MVP from 2009 to 2014. I currently own stock in Microsoft, AMD, and nVidia.
