Burnout Revenge will Be better without multipliers

I truly hope the multipliers are not included in the revenge game.
The addition of them really took away something, because once you got
a 4x multiplier you were almost certain to get Gold.
and took away from how much damge you actually caused.
Also the explosions, although can't be on every vehicle you hit but
should be possible on every vehicle that gets "TAKEN DOWN " after
falling back to the pavement. this would add alot more visual
excitement but may only be possible on next gen consoles for obvious
reasons.

Burnout 3 was a disappointment all around compared to the previous two. Can
anyone verify that on the XBox that you can actually see more than two feet
in front of you? I only have the PS2 version, and GC of the previous two.

And on the flip side, you HAVE to get the 4x multiplier to
get gold.

The demo on Madden kicks ASS! I have never played the other 3 but I'll be
damned if I don't feel as if I have missed something.

Burnout3 is one of, if not THE best racing game out there...especially from
the arcade racing side of things. It is a must play, and own really.

Damn. I was hoping it was better. Then I would have bought an XBox.

You're in the minority, it seems.

It appears you're referring to Crash mode in Burnout 3, which had the 2x and
4x multipliers. Well, then I've got good news for you: the Crash mode in
Burnout Revenge doesn't have the multipliers anymore! I think the point
scoring will be more like Burnout 2, where it's mostly based on how much
damage you caused. The gold/silver/bronze bonus tokens will still be there,
as well as the Crashbreakers.

I'm not sure what you mean, but if you're referring to Crashbreakers, then
they will apparently be available in some of the racing modes (not just
Crash mode). The Crashbreaker is present in the Burnout Revenge demo (which
lets you play a race), although it's a little out of hand there, since you
automatically get a Crashbreaker every time you crash. I recall reading
somewhere (unfortunately, I forgot where) that the Crashbreaker won't be
available in all the racing modes, but just certain races.

I'm surprised you never tried any of the other Burnout games. But, you can
still make up for lost time!

Buy, or at least rent, a copy of Burnout 3, which is a Greatest Hit now. I
have heard that if you have a Burnout 3 game save on your memory card when
you first play Burnout Revenge, you will be rewarded with additional in-game
money for Burnout Revenge.

Midtown Madness is the only racing game outside of Mario Kart that I have
ever enjoyed.

PS2 version has the best graphics again this time.
480p 16:9 better sparks, particle effects, and blur.. again.

Even the texture work is better.
