** The ''VideoGame/FlatOut'' series, which feels a bit like ShoddyKnockoffProduct due to its name, but it plays more like the Playstation classic Destruction Derby, with no cut-off cutscene if a destruction happened. Their distinguishing feature was "windshield cannons" -- that is, if you get in a big crash, you go ''flying through the windshield''. (Wear seatbelts, kids.) There were even {{mini game}}s where you took advantage of this, throwing your hapless driver at giant bowling pins or trying to hit a target.
** The ''VideoGame/MotorStorm'' games are basically ''Burnout'' [[AC:[[RecycledInSpace off-road!]] And with NintendoHard difficulty!]]
** ''VideoGame/SplitSecond'' is ''Burnout'' meets a Creator/MichaelBay movie.
** ''Burnout'' itself is ''Destruction Derby'' with intersections and traffic instead of demolition derbies.
** ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeed: Hot Pursuit'' is basically ''Burnout'' with licensed cars and a major emphasis on police chases. Justified, as it was developed by Criterion. Taken a step further with the 2012 ''VideoGame/NeedForSpeedMostWanted'', which is ''Burnout Paradise'' with licensed cars (including a singular DLC-expanded part of the map!).
** ''VideoGame/{{Driver}}: [[VideoGame/DriverSanFrancisco San Francisco]]'' incorporates a near-copy of Burnout's boosting system, event types, and event selection, worked into more standard ''Driver''-style gameplay and missions.

Now they were migrated, along with some of the Criterion staff (technically following the leaders) to their own studio named ''Three Fields Entertainment'' and made 2 games that has a Burnout influence:

''Burnout 2'' was a great game that touched on dangerous driving, but ''3'' brought it to the forefront with the takedown and aftertouch mechanics, making the racing super tense and exciting. No wonder that it's frequently hailed as one of the best racing games of its generation.

* HellIsThatNoise: The countdown sounds in the 360 version of ''Revenge''. It sounds like the usual at ten seconds left, giving a beep every second. At five seconds left, it'll add more hurried beeping. It's not done yet, though- at two seconds left, it'll add some loud, arrhythmic beeps, like a bomb's about to go off. It might not scare the pants off of you, but it'll definitely instill a sense of dread as the sounds build up.
