    Hi,
    I thought my son would love Forza Horizon 3 Hot Wheels but instead he wants a game with lots of crashing. He loves watching YouTube videos of Nascar crashes. So I'm looking for a game with either big, entertaining crashes or a game where crashing is keybtinthe game (eg demolition game)
    Any recommendations please?
    Thanks,
    Pa

    It’s an old game and you’ll need an older Xbox but....

    Burnout 3 hasn’t been bettered in regards to entertaining crashes.

    Burnout 3 is an original Xbox game, so it's not (yet) playable on the Xbox One. The sequel, Burnout Paradise, is available through Xbox 360 backwards compatibility on the Xbox One.

    It's a free roam racing game and not as crash focused as Burnout 3, but there is a crash mode (called Showtime) you can enter any time.

    I think 'Flatout: Total Insanity' is a crashing game. I haven't played it myself.

    Burnout 3 and Burnout Revenge on the Xbox and 360 were great and had this mode as a separate sub game - who can cause the most damage.

    Paradise brought it into the main game, you kick it off by pressing LB+RB at any point on any street and you can steer the wreckage to try and keep the carnage going.
