Dangerous Driving Reviews
All in all, Dangerous Driving is a marked improvement in basically every facet over Danger Zone 1 and 2. This is Three Fields firing on all cylinders and giving Burnout fans the experience they've been craving. While a few technical hiccups stop this from achieving greatness, you really shouldn't sleep on this if you're a fan of arcade racers. Dangerous Driving is the real deal and any Burnout fan would be crazy to skip it.
I had got plenty of enjoyment out of Dangerous Driving. Handling is excellent, the different modes give you plenty of reasons to keep playing, and watching your Takedowns is as addictive as it gets.
Dangerous Driving may be rough around the edges, but it succeeds at being a worthy Burnout successor.
Despite its limitations, in short, it is a pleasure to run dangerously between the slopes of Dangerous Driving.

The spirit of Burnout returns in a game that trades big-budget spectacle for pure speed.
Leave it to the creators of Burnout to bring the action racing genre back to basics with Dangerous Driving!
Dangerous Driving is the arcade driving game I've been waiting years to play.
Dangerous Driving completes Burnout's revival, but not flawlessly.
Despite the sparse menus and weird gameplay hiccups, Dangerous Driving is still a hell of a great time.
Dangerous Driving can be fun in short spurts.
Its limited budget is obvious but as an unofficial reboot for the Burnout series this is one of the best arcade racers for a long time.
Burnout fans who want to revisit the series pre-Paradise will love everything Dangerous Driving offers. But it’s hard to look past the nagging issues and missing features that could have pushed Dangerous Driving past the competition.
Dangerous Driving is undeniably fun. Taking out other racers at 200mph always will be insanely enjoyable and Three Fields has taken full advantage of Burnout nostalgia. However, underwhelming crash physics, poorly balanced AI racers, and some technical problems keep their game from being the modernization of Criterion's classic that fans hoped it would be.
The most impressive piece to Dangerous Driving is its aesthetic design. Each map is vibrant and awash color and the sound design has noticeable polish. However, the rest of the game feels rather shallow, especially for a spiritual successor to the Burnout series.
A pale imitation of a great franchise, Dangerous Driving just can't quite fill the hole left by Burnout.
As a spiritual successor to Burnout 3: Takedown, Dangerous Driving bottles up some of that Criterion magic, but these moments are fleeting and too many issues pile up to make it little more than a pretender.
Dangerous Driving bets that spurned fans of Burnout still want more Burnout made by the only people they would trust to make more Burnout. It's a skilled recreation, albeit one that forgets wild innovation and grinning novelty were as important to Burnout's identity as racing and smashing up outrageous cars. Dangerous Driving, ironically, is defined by familiarity and comfort.
Dangerous Driving delivers a tight, streamlined racing experience, but that comes at the cost of features that players have come to expect.
