It looks good. If it used N-Wifi I'd buy it... I may buy it anyway if its substantially different enough.
Things developers should look to incorporate to validate a DS port of traditional games:
* Single Cart Multiplayer
* Online
* Unique content that may or may not use the unique interface 2ndScreen/stylus/microphone
ORRR... just put out the game on a totally different pricing tier.

It looks pretty good from those screens but I'd like to see it in motion.
Bearing in mind one thing, most DS games tend to hover around the 60 fps mark. If 60fps is Burnouts framerate on the DS then it's better than the PSP's 30 fps. 
Seriously though guys why the bitching? Your getting burnout on the PSP and the DS. Thats better than not having it on the DS at all. If people want all the extra stuff and better graphics then the PSP is the one to get but if your on a budget then or are a harcore nintendo fan then if the DS version is okay then get that. Just be thankful your getting Burnout on the go!

Looks really good for a 3rd party racing game on the DS! Especially cause DS games tend to look much better in motion than on screenshots.
The blur present in those shots is of the most basic variety. Both PSX and N64 were quite capable of displaying that effect as well. Many PSX and N64 games made heavy use of it as well.Deku said:
The blur actually seen in Burnout 3 and Revenge is on an entirely different level.
Err, yeah, of course it works. You wondered how it was possible, and I was telling you. It's a simple trick that any ultra basic 3D hardware should be able to do.Deku said:
There are so many different possible methods for creating motion blur and the quality varies heavily. You can't refer to "motion blur" in the generic sense.
Andy787 said:Yes, I know what it means, and I know what context is. You don't get my point. Black still looks good. It doesn't matter if it is on the Xbox 360 or on the Commodore 64. Whatever machine produced Black, Black still looks good. Competing against other 360 games is what would make Black unacceptable if it were on the 360, not that Black doesn't look good (And just to poke a little fun, Gun and THAW say hi.
Where have you been? That's why everyone who bags on the DS hardware...bags on the DS hardware. It can do 3D well enough that developers will use it but not well enough to make it look good - kind of a lousy combination, if you ask me.
I think there's a reason why the best games on the system aren't heavy 3D games.

It looks ok. If the developer puts half the effort they could make something worthwhile. What's up with the useless second screen? Burnout is all about over the top action and pizzaz. Have the second screen show the mayhem left behind after you crash into stuff. I wanna see cars flying and tumbling in a ball of fire after me. That would be cool.

Hell no. PS1 racers looked better.

I wonder. Racers haven't traditionally been huge handheld genres, but certainly on the PSP that looks to change. NFS and RR both tanked on the DS, but Asphalt: Urban GT did decent.Tony HoTT said:

Burnout 64 looks pretty good actually.
I dont like the series however, so Ill pass, but Im sure some people will be pleased.

exactly. the vs. monotony is a little dumb, but games that seem shoehorned onto their respective platform don't deserve this much comment or analysis.
I think it looks great, especially when you consider that these are fuzzy captures to being with, and overcompressed. Can't wait to see a video, it is really pointless to judge DS games from still most of the time, as it doesn't tell even half of the story.
I'll buy this in a second, because Burnout is awesome.
As for people complaiing about how the second screen is used. Shut up already. Not every got damn game has to use every god damn feature of the DS. I mean really. And I persoanlly think moving the map and all the junk off the main screen is a good thing anyway.

The blurry is probably hiding a lot of flaws, though. We'll see.

the car model in that crash/closeup screen looks terrible, easily worse than most PSone racers. They shouyld have just gotten rid of the crash cam if its going to look like that.

Probably the best looking racer on DS. Nice. Obviously the PSP one is the one to get on the go though.
