for burnout revenge was terrible compared to 3, they took out the fun physics and replaced it with "nevercrash" physics.

completely ruined the game for me, the whole idea was rushing through city traffic at 180mph and dodging opponents and cross traffic. Now you can harmlessly rearend cars doing 180mph and they just harmlessly (read: Cartoonish) fly out of the way.

I was very dissapointed with BO:R.

NFS:MW all the way. I'm on Blacklist contender #1, I'm having such a blast playing it.

I'm gonna have to say c) neither. Burnout Revenge is a horrible, horrible sequel to Burnout 3: Takedown - if anything, buy that! On the other hand, NFS:MW is pretty cool, but it runs like ass on the Xbox1.. get it for either PC or Xbox360 or you'll be disappointed with the graphical chugging.

Personally I thought NFS was horrible and had PSone like graphics. Terrible, terrible game compared to Revenge. Rent it first.

You're right, nfsmw does look like it has psone graphics :disgust:

I've played both, and while both are good the cop chases in nfsmw will blow you away.
Cops are ramming you and trying to spin you out, they setup road blocks to stop you, spike strips to shut you down, kamikaze suv's plow into you head on, helicopters try to block your path. There's just no comparison between the two, go with nfsmw.
Did i mention that one point in the game the squad cars get upgraded to corvettes? Cant outrun those :)

where are the screenshots saved for NFSMW ? I believe I took one when I hit F12, as the screen froze for a sec.

Did you even read the original post? He was asking for the xbox not the pc. Again, I say the graphics on the xbox are sub-standard compared to Revenge.

Well duh if you play NFSMW on a Geforce MX400 its gonna look like PSone graphics.

See above.

Burnout Revenge is a good game if you give it time and play far enough through it. Its more challenging than Burnout 3 was, which while a very fun game was way too easy for me (I did enjoy 3 more, but I hadn't played any Burnout prior to it, so it was totally new to me). I'm not a big fan of being able to hit the back of cars going in the same direction as you, but that doesn't ruin it.

GT4 was disappointing to me. The 3rd and 2nd ones were a lot more fun to play. Personally I felt that they ruined the handling a lot. Its like they tried to make it ultra realistic but went too far. Forza wasn't any better in my opinion.

I haven't played NFS: MW, but it sounds like its more like NFS: Undersground, which I didn't like. I liked Hot Pursuit 2 a lot better. I still want to give it a try, but it doesn't sound like I'll like it quite as much as I was hoping I would.
