What Made Burnout 3: Takedown One Hell of a Game? 

This is one of those game that you remember looking like 1080p when you were younger

This is probably my favorite racing game ever

Man loved the soundtrack for this game. Really takes me back

My favourite racing game ever. Nothing has compared since.

Driving at high speed in burnout games is extremely satisfying

I listen to the soundtrack of this game religiously lmao. My favorite racing game of all time

The best thing of it all is hands down the soundtrack. The concept of racing at high speed, taking down rivals and listening to awesome music was simply genius. The feature that you could even skip tracks to the ones you wanted was so clever.

Burn Out 3 and Revenge has some of the best soundtrack for a fast paced racing game. There's no satisfying feeling than drifting thru a high speed hairpin and the rock music picks up!

I remember playing Burnout on Xbox. Never was into racing games, but when I first played it, it honestly blew my mind. So much fun.

100% the best racing game I’ve ever played. Spent sooooo many hours playing this game!! We need more Burnout man

they HAVE to remaster this, it's amazing!!! The sound track was incredible as well

I've been waiting 20 years for game like that, I cant believe they haven't made a remake it would make a mint

Burnout 3 was a great racing game but we were all there for the wrecking simulator lol

The gamplay, the soundtrack, it just gives you that early 2000's feel. I love this game and its my favorite racing game of all time.

I remember playing this as a kid and this was one of the hardest games I ever played. Recently dug my ps2 out and made one last attempt at beating the game, and got it, man that felt good. That circuit racer can be a pain to drive at times

Don't forget about how awesome Split Second was too!

It's nice to know I'm not the only one that LOVES Arcade Racers & doesn't care if their avatar has licensed cloths/shoes, realistic environments, life like looking/handling cars! FUN is the most important part, which usually means AIR & VISERAL crashes! I've owned & loved the entire series. Great vid, thx!

DJ Atomica CRASH FM 📻 really made it even more fun I love how every time a song would start or end as your racing Atomica would barge in and say a few words damn bruh this needs to comeback 😍🏎🔥🔥🔥🔥

Burnout 3 and revenge are the best for me. Still don’t understand why ea remastered paradise

The soundtrack and radio station announcements, the crash junctions, an almost perfect game

There needs to be another video on this, the more we talk about burnout and push it, the closer we actually get to a remake/remastered version. I think I speak for everyone when I saw we NEED that!

If any game deserves a remaster it's Burnout 3.

This game had the best soundtrack!

This will likely continue to be my favorite racing game of all-time. I still remember being so incredibly exciting coming home from school to play it for the first time.

I remember playing this so much. Was among some of my favourite games, along with speed kings. I managed to complete the game, but I remember my brother not saving the game properly, so we ended up losing all our save data. So we just played through it all again. Was one of those games you'd never get bored of.

Crash mode was my jam. 😂😂😂

Still to this day listen to the soundtrack on shuffle like once a month thank you for reminding me of the visual aspect of this, the best racing game ever

One of my favorite racing games ever. So much fun! Especially when you did well in crash mode on the later courses!

I sunk so many hours into this game as a kid. So much fun to just have a quick blast through a track and crash into everything you possibly could.

One of the best racing games I've ever play, I still got the original ps2 and still waiting for a remake that game was amazing Great video, thank you

It had awesome cars, awesome levels, awesome OST, and a DEFINITELY AWESOME mechanic, that's what make it one heck of a game.

Damn, this video brought back awesome childhood memories. I'm really hoping for a remake/comeback of the series

The soundtrack on this game was what made it so damn special. I often play burnout paradise and chuck the Burnout 3 takedown soundtrack in the background (highly recommend)

soundtrack: perfect. gameplay: perfect. nostalgia: perfect. that feeling when you hit someone into the median and the crash into the skyscraper: perfect. my favorite game ever.

Loved the Alpine and Winter City tracks. Perfect places to give everyone a cold shoulder and homes to some of my fave Signature Takedowns: Snowed Under, Euro Tram Ram, Avalanche! and Paid The Price!

Yes we will see something like it! Waiting for the second installment of the Burnout clone "Dangerous Driving 2", made by a studio with several people who worked on the original games. I love the first one despite some flaws and I thing the second one will be a fantastic game!

Sick video 🔥

We 100000000000000% need a Burnout 3 takedown remake!! Imagine it with the tech of Today!

Man the early and Mid 2000’s really had some of the best games. Revenge Of The Sith, Rachet&Clank Up Your Arsenal, Mortal Kombat Deception & Armageddon, Jak&Daxter, Harry Potter and the Prisoner Of Azkaban and Chamber Of Secrets, Burnout Takedown, Star Wars Battlefront 1 & 2, Star Wars Bounty Hunter and Spider-Man 2. These are just some games that I remember from my childhood

This game was my childhood, and I still have the disk for the PS2. It sucks that they might never give us a remake for this game. I would never stop playing it

I played this game when I was 8 in ps2, I am 19 now. I don't know what made me comeback and listen to this game's sound track... still my favorite racing game.

Truly amazing game! I had so much fun with this game. It's a shame they don't make them like this anymore. I'm so sick of the constant current day releasing of broken games that may or may not be patched to a playable state.

Still is, I think. Why EA never remastered this game, I never understood!

Also those signature takedowns were something else, the camera flash, the time stop..it all felt good when you got them Also yeah, soundtrack slaps hard

Like Farcry Burnout hit it’s peek with the third installment. Burnout 3 is definitely one of the greatest racing games ever made.

The best part about this game is that me my brother and cousin would play this and NOBODY would ever win 3 in a row it was RARE but we would beat each other race after race after race which made it so fun competitive and entertaining. VERY underrated racing game

It was probably the first racing game I became obsessed with. And I was already 20+ by then.

Greatest and most fun racing game ever! Im so glad I got my copy on og XBOX. Playing it atm and Im a kid again! This game needs a remaster! Still holds up in 2022!

This is one of my favorite childhood games!

Grinding enemies into the rails while Blasting early 2000 pop rock was so tricking Awsome

what a game, childhood fave up there

This and Need for Speed 2012 are my favorite racing games to exist.

My favorite arcade racing game with Split second velocity😍

I recently used FreeDVDBoot, obviously my original burnout 3 disc is long gone, but my ps2 still works, I burned a copy of the game onto a fresh disc. And NOSTALGIAAA, THE MUSIC

The soundtrack while going at insane speeds felt so dangerous and that’s what made this one of my favorite racing games ever. Also introduced me to some new artists.

One of the first ever games I played with my aunt as a kid, great memories

This is what introduced me to video games

I used to play this game all the time when i was like 3 or 4. This was my favorite game ever. Still is actually. I just wish Criterion would remaster it

This was one of my childhood favorites

I still play Burnout 3 Takedown Platinum Edition on my PS2 and i love it.

This was the few games my dad likes, tons of memories with this game

I remember loving this series so much, a couple years ago I went and played Burnout Paradise though and hated it, so boring, would love a new one though with engaging gameplay this time!

Just downloaded xemu on my PC to play this again and it's still amazing just like it was when I was a kid.

Found an old copy of this game today and I thought I had lost it almost a decade ago lol happy asf!!

Every other series getting remakes and remasters while Burnout 3 and Tony Hawk sitting here like a skeleton in a rocking chair.

Should probably note that Acclaim didn't own Criterion. In fact we were owned by Canon (hence the font. and yes. That Canon). As a side note - it's bizarre to see games I worked on as a younger man now appearing to be... Retro. Hardest and best 9 months of my life. AMA.

Honestly, I never enjoyed crashmode that much. I would do it every now and then just to cause some mayhem. But my favorite mode was road rage, I just loved taking down other the other cars and seeing all the cars deteriorate instead of being completely fixed was awesome. In addition we actually get to listen to the awesome soundtrack of the game

2, 3 and Revenge were all fun. 3 is probably my favorite. Currently we have a shortage of arcade racers, need more. Dirt 5 is cool, but need some more combat ones back like this, Motorstorm. I would dig a reboot of twisted metal if it was on tracks instead of arenas.

this is the game that took 6 year old me's music taste, threw that shit in the dumpster, and changed my goddamn LIFE. even ignoring how absolutely fun this game was (which, why would you? this is still a phenomenal racing game almost 20 years later) this soundtrack aged AMAZINGLY. literally a "who's who" of post-hardcore and metalcore TITANS from back in the day, and some of their greatest songs both back then and in hindsight. eighteen visions, atreyu, motion city soundtrack, yellowcard, from first to last, jimmy eat world, fall out boy, my chemical romance...i know people who, even now, say that if it wasnt black parade that got them into mcr, it was I'm Not Okay being in this game. if any studio ever makes a spiritual successor to this game thats the one element i hope they keep faithful to this game; seeing a new generation of kids experience this type of hectic racing while listening to bands bringing that sound back like seeyouspacecowboy, static dress, or kaonashi would probably be the one thing that gives me hope in such a dark world

I lost my mind, playing this game while “Shake That Bush Again” played. EPIC! 🔥❤️

Never forget playin this and getting a deja vu feeling then we saw the hillsburough ave signs and were like holy shit we drive this route every day in florida I-4 mixed with tampa and sunshine skyway. great track our minds was blown.

I would do anything to play burnout three. I grew up a tony hawk kid. No other games were interesting. But when I would visit my cousins house i would play burnout 3 nonstop on his xbox. Our 5 year old selves had a blast just playing the crash mode

I really hope this one gets a remaster soon

I seriously don't see how this game hasn't had a remaster, especially on new consoles that can handle 60+ fps. If only 😭

I remember playing this and one of the muscle cars (black and white but can't remember which) was actually so OP you could glitch enemies into the sky by pressing them against the walls.

Great video. I think Burnout 3 Takedown and Burnout Revenge were the best games in the series I wish they would remaster them or make a new one

This game, Underground 2 and Midnight club 3, the peak of arcade racing games, it was glorious

Ironically, I was performing takedowns before I had ever even heard of the Burnout games. When I played Need for Speed II: Special Edition, I would often slam into the computer racers, forcing them to crash.

First game I got on the ps2... I miss those times

Miss this game

We need a remaster NOW

Only thing I want is for EA to open up their servers again so I can play Burnout 3 online again.

I played this religiously till about 2007, this and NFSU 2 were amazing. I remember trading it in for halo 2, but quickly buying it back.

My Chem, New Found Glory, Yellowcard, Funeral for a Friend, No Motiv, Amber Pacific, Franz Ferdinand, Ramones, Autopilot Off, Ash (also in midnight club 3), LocalH, Sugarcult, Fall out boy, etc, etc, etc!

Wait, Burnout has a racing mode?

The soundtrack for this game pretty much defined my entire music taste

I logged s sh ton of hours on this game and i say this was a racing game that makes your heart race. The soundtrack was phenenomenal. My favorite was turning off the crash-cam. It made it even more intense. Ive never been satisfied with a racing game since playing this

Such a good game I remember playing when I was younger

I remember when we found this game 😅 crash was everything and next wast the takedown races good times 👌

It still amazes me how those 2000’s games were so fun to play with the technology and graphics being what they were, I cannot think of the last good racing game

Played this on a madden NFL game as a demo and was hooked

I miss this game so much

This was my favorite burnout

They Should Remastered For the PS4 Nintendo Switch and Xbox One

This game is fucking gorgeous. I remember it being one of my last game of the PS2 and it felt equally as awesome as Motorstorm on the PS3 when I got that in 2007.

had a friend and I get so crazy good at takedowns we'd have 10 before the first 1/3 of a track sometimes with nonstop full Turbo bars.....hated the later versions of the game that allowed you to smash the rear end of NPCars without crashing, the fact you had to dodge Incoming AND Oncoming traffic in this game upped the ante for skill.

Nothing else like smashing cars and listening to I’m not Okay. Wish I could go back.

We will never forget Acclaim Entertainment for publishing the first 2 games of this legendary franchise, and while they disappeared from existence, Burnout did not

I adored Burnout takedown on original Xbox and sunk many hours playing it cause it was sooooo much fun so making a faithful remake of Takedown would make me buy it in a second 🥰😁🥰😁🥰😁😍👍🏾👍🏾😍

Split screen is what made it so good. There are no good crash racers that have split screen today. Give us split screen!!!
