If Burnout 3 sells less than four times what its predecessor sold we'd be very surprised indeed.ĭespite EA already having a best seller in the racing genre in Need For Speed Underground, it was a no-brainer for EA to sign Burnout 3. Acclaim's loss was very much EA's gain, and if any games publisher in the world knows how to sell to the Yanks, it's EA. They couldn't have been more wrong, and the fact that it still stands out as one of the best looking games and most addictive ever says a lot. Maybe it was Acclaim's ongoing inability to compete with the big guns in the US that was to blame, or maybe consumers weren't that convinced about the original and wrongly assumed the quick-fire sequel would be more of the same. It seems utter madness that a game of the quality of Burnout 2 wasn't a massive hit outside of Europe.
