Burnout Dominator is a video game in the Burnout series. It was announced on December 5, 2006, only to be released for the PlayStation 2 and the PlayStation Portable. The game will retain the core gameplay of the series, as players will race at top speeds through dozens of World Tour events testing "reckless skill-based" driving techniques (however, GameSpot has confirmed that the game will no longer have a Crash mode^[1]). Currently, there are no plans for the versions for each platform to interact with each other.^[2]

The main focus in Burnout Dominator is the return of Burnouts. Burnouts are the result of draining a complete boost meter without stopping. The boost meter in Burnout Dominator is primarily orange flames prior to a full boost meter, in which it turns into blue flames on full (known as Supercharge Boost). Driving dangerously whilst using supercharge boost will light up the arrows on the boost meter, and when they are all lit, you can obtain another Burnout when you completely drain the boost bar. The process can be continually repeated and is known as a Burnout Chain. Prior to Burnout Dominator, Burnouts were last seen in Burnout 2: Point of Impact, released in 2002.

Features removed from the previous game (Burnout Revenge) include Traffic Checking (the ability to ram into small traffic going in the same direction as you) and the game mode Traffic Attack, Crash Mode (a puzzle-orientated mode, in which your vehicle is driven into a junction full of traffic with the aim to cause the biggest amount of damage/money for damages possible), and Online Multiplayer.

The main single player mode known as the World Tour is split into 7 different series, based on the different classes of car that are in the game. The series are Classic, Factory, Tuned, Hot Rod, Super, Race Specials and Dominator. The events and new challenges in the World Tour include:

• Race (standard racing for finish line)
• Road Rage (timed event where the goal is to takedown as many opponent drivers as possible)
• Eliminator (similar to race, but the driver in last place every 30 seconds is eliminated from the race)
• Burning Lap (single lap time trial)
• Maniac Mode (a new mode to Burnout Dominator, it involves players driving as dangerously as they can to earn the highest scores possible by earning drifts, air, oncoming and near misses. Chaining Burnouts in this mode increases the score multiplier)
• Drift Challenge (a challenge mode where your aim is to obtain as many feet as possible by drifting. Like Maniac Mode, chaining Burnouts for higher scores also apply here)
• Near Miss Challenge (same as Drift Challenge, but focusing on narrowly missing traffic to earn scores)
• Burnout Challenge (same as Drift Challenge, but focusing on obtaining Burnouts)^[3]

The other single player mode in Burnout Dominator is known as 'Record Breaker', and this mode lets you set high scores for Race, Road Rage, Time Attack and Maniac Mode, without being restricted to specific event/location/series combinations that exist in the World Tour mode. Co-existing with the Record Breaker mode, the PSP version of the game allows uploading of high scores via the Burnout HQ option, which can be viewed in the EA Nation section of the Burnout Dominator website^[4]

Burnout Dominator consists of 12 different tracks, in 8 different locations, all based on locations in the real world. Each track has a forward and a reverse configuration. More tracks are planned for the PSP version of the game, and can be downloaded via the Burnout HQ option in-game.
