The PlayStation 2 and PlayStation Portable gaming devices are supported by the latest entry in the Burnout video game series, which is called Burnout Dominator.
The primary focus of the game is on the return of the burnouts feature, which allows players to deplete an entire boost meter without coming to a halt and was most last seen in Burnout 2: Point of Impact (2004). In conjunction with the return of the burnouts feature, four new game types were included, including the following:
In Maniac Mode, players must risk their lives behind the wheel in order to rack up the best possible score by accumulating drifts, air, incoming vehicles, and close calls. In this phase, stringing together a series of burnouts will enhance the score multiplier.
The objective of the Drift Challenge for players is to rack up as many feet of drifting as they can. The score multiplier can also be increased by stringing together a series of burnouts.
The Near Miss Challenge is very similar to the Drift Challenge, but instead of scoring drift bonuses, the player must score near-miss bonuses.
The Burnout Challenge is quite similar to the Drift Challenge, with the primary objective being to rack up as many burnouts as possible.
There are some modes that are not available in this version of the game, such as Crash Mode, Traffic Checking Mode, and Online Multiplayer. For example, the Burnout Dominator does not include Crash Mode. Burnout HQ is included in the PSP edition, and it allows players to upload scores and download new tracks.
There are a total of 12 unique courses spread across 8 distinct real-world sites in this game. There is a forward configuration and a reverse configuration for each track.
