A modern retro game

I know it has been getting middle of the road reviews but I've been really enjoying Burnout Crash. It reminds me of a retro game. Something that wouldn't have been out of places on the NES or Colecovision. I can almost visualize an Atari 2600 Activision game box for crash. It is more of a pinball game with a built in social element that encourages the player to keep playing until the beat at least some of their friend's. Play it for short periods. It will burn out its welcome quickly if you attempt to power through all the modes and intersections. Also it is far better with the controller.
