Burnout by Acclaim has Shipped for the PS2
Created by Criterion Games Limited, an award-winning developer of interactive entertainment, Burnout is an arcade-style driving game that has the gaming industry buzzing with its stunning next-generation graphics and white-knuckle, foot-to-the-floor game play.
Description
Burnout(TM) takes the white-knuckle, foot-to-the floor action often associated with track racing, and brings it to major highways and densely populated city streets.

With dramatic crashes possible with every turn of the wheel, competing drivers are rewarded for pushing the envelope and their skills to the extreme. Burnout(TM) also includes a simulated in-game heart monitor, which rewards the player with incredible bursts of speed as they experience danger and their pulse increases.
