EA's Burnout 3 Soundtrack

Electronic Arts today announced the license-heavy soundtrack for its upcoming racing game, Burnout 3: Takedown, and boy, is it…interesting...

Featuring 40 songs from today's most...trendy, FM-friendly, and right-down-the-middle-of-the-road bands, Burnout 3: Takedown does away with the pleasurable in-house music from the previous game and gives you Jimmy Eat World, Yellowcard, New Found Glory, and more.

Plus, if you liked the DJ from SSX 3, well, there's a very similar one in Burnout 3: Takedown. They call him DJ Stryker, and if you have listened to once alternative KROQ-FM, you'll know him.

Here is the full list of songs:

Burnout 3: Takedown is rated "T" (Teen) by the ESRB and is slated for a worldwide release in September 2004 Xbox and PlayStation 2.
