Reviews on Burnout Legends [PSP]

AJMouse on Burnout Legends [PSP], 01-11-2006

"Wow, this game. Addictive. I like it. This is the first game I played on my PSP and while I had some other games here I just left this one in my PSP. I've always liked the Burnout franchise alot, and this game is no exception. It works just like Burnout, and it features the same tracks. Loads of unlockables.

It plays nice on the PSP, loading time is annoying from time to time, but that's no reason not to buy this game. Graphics are okay for a PSP game, I guess you can't be too picky for a handheld. I was amazed how many audiotracks they fit in the game, and it's a good soundtrack at that.

I've stopped playing it for quite some time because I had alot of other games I really wanted to check out, but I can't wait until I get bored so I can finish this one. If you don't already own this piece of UMD, get it now!

I'm giving it a 4 out of 5 because I think it's better than just 'OK'. I already had hours and hours of fun. Some of my friends disagree and rather play it on their consoles, but I think they're two seperate things. I bought it on a console too, and still have alot of fun with the handheld version."
