Among many gamers' considerations for the best racing games, Burnout 3: Takedown excels when focusing on its myriad Crash events while suffering (at least in getting all gold medals) when its inconsistent physics system makes races an inferior half during the late-game events, notably the last Grand Prix and its horrendous F1-type car. Thankfully, the soundtrack is a full of enjoyable background tunes when not interrupted by the annoying DJ Striker, who I turned off alongside the Takedown camera after so much repetition. Need for Speed: Most Wanted remains my favorite, but this is spectacular at enough times to challenge my general distaste for the genre.
