When you start up a new racing game, what's the first thing to do? If the answer is crash the cars, then Burnout is the only game you need. With gameplay that encourages dangerous driving, Takedown, the third and best in the series, is the best action racer on any consol🍸e. It's packed with high-tension contests and spectacular crashes. Michael Bay should be jealo🐷us. You'll be addicted.

A casual glance might not reveal much that stands out from other arcade driving titles. There are basic races, a grand prix and a garage full of cars to unl🎶ock. The key to most races is boost -- a supply of nitro that will never run out so long as you drive aggressively.
