I've never been a racing game fan (my favorite "racing" games are probably Mario Kart and Excitebike), but Burnout 3 is the major exception. It sounds like all the crappiness (annoying announcers, weak music, unbearable AI) have been addressed in version 4. The one glaring issue from Burnout 3 I would like to eliminate is the way it pulls you from the race everytime you take someone out. It would be nice if you could turn it off for racing. After the first 1000 opponents have been mashed it starts to get old.
