    Sure, this trailer for the upcoming downloadable arcade racer Fireburst has some fun jumps and explosions in it. But if you're anything like us, that song is what caught your ears. That's Dayton, Ohio's Hawthorne Heights performing "Drive," which you can get for free on the game's website.

  • Fireburst to offer explosive (budget) racing on XBLA, PSN and PC this summer

    Zoo Entertainment clearly never learned not to play with fire. Its upcoming Fireburst is an off-road racer in which cars appear to be regularly set aflame. Beyond the pyro gimmick, the game's features sound rather impressive, especially when you consider the $10 price tag. Fireburst promises to offer 16 different cars, including buggys, muscle cars, trucks and 4x4s, and 15 race courses. Given the arcade nature of the game (you didn't expect a racing game about cars on fire to be a sim, right?), it should come as no surprise that there will be power-ups, including fireballs, fire blasts, walls of fire and other predictably fire-themed weapons, too. The Unreal Engine 3-powered racer will also feature four-player split-screen -- a nice throwback to the Mario Kart 64 days. You can expect Fireburst on Xbox Live Arcade, PlayStation Network and PC this summer. See the first trailer after the break. %Gallery-118036%
