You can play this game either in quick one-off record-breaker races and events or you can go for the career and play the world circuit where you can take on challenges like drifting, near miss, speed, eliminator, grand prix, maniac and more.  Logging medals and awards along the way, you can move up in the rankings, racing classic (fake) American cars, hot rods and more.

One of the greater features of this game is, while you are moving up in the racing world, there are also mini-challenges that you can rack up in order to earn trophies (starting with, of course, Rookie.).  Outside of winning a race, you will have to focus on how many boost chains you get, overall maniac points you collect as well as near-misses and hundreds of others.

If Grand Theft Auto is the Mario for psychotic people, then Burnout is the Gran Turismo for road-rage drivers.  The PSP version of the game is nearly 100% identical to it’s PS2 counterpart (the PS3 Burnout 4 is promised later in the year) and, surprisingly, never gets lost on the small screen.  All in all, Burnout Dominator is easily one of the most fun games of the year and lives up to its predecessors.
