Burnout 3 looking to scorch the scene

There's no doubt that EA is expecting big things out of recently purchased Criterion's Burnout 3: Takedown.  This time around the action is certainly going to be faster and more frenzied.  As the title implies, this latest installment focuses on the takedown, which is fairly self-evident—run the other guys off the road.  The new "trick" is highlighted by a special camera system that swings around behind you while slowing the action down to a crawl so that you can watch your dirty work in real time.  And it all seems to be looking quite gorgeous.  One final note: this one's going to be online for both PlayStation 2 and Xbox.  Look for Burnout 3 in early September.
