I love Burnout series better because it gets straight to the action, fun starts right away and it's all about crashing, driving realistic gets boring to me. GT: driving realism BO: Drive to crash How can the two mix together? It's like saying water + fire:/ You mean Need for Speed+Burnout! Sorry I don't think Grand Turismo+Burnout will work:/

GT: driving realism
BO: Drive to crash

How can the two mix together?

You mean Need for Speed+Burnout!

Another list of suggested crossover games: Here are my top five video games that should arrange a play date. 5) Tomb Raider and Uncharted This seems like a dream come true. Imagine Drake battling through an Aztec temple when a bold heroine comes blazing through to help him in a jam. Sure, Drake has his own female sidekick, but would it be epic to throw Lara Croft into the mix? Take what Naughty Dog has done to advance the genre and give them the legendary Lara Croft to play with! Lara is in desperate need of a reboot anyway, so sticking her next to Drake with the help of Naughty Dog?s story writers might be just what she needs to finally rise from the abyss. 4) Dead Space and Aliens EA Redwood did a wonderful job scaring my socks off with Dead Space. However mutated, fleshy? whatevers? can only terrify you for so long. The problem is that in all of their gory, disgusting looking glory, they were just a little too unreal. Now, if you were to end up stranded on a mining ship full of Hollywood?s most terrifying extraterrestrials, THEN you would have something to jump at! Aliens would be fun as hell to dismember because of the whole acid-blood thing. Plus, they are dark skinned, so when they attacked all you would see is the shimmering light off their skin. Careful though, you would definitely still need to keep an eye on the vents? 3) Grand Turismo and Burnout This would be a combination of the two complete extremes in racing games. Grand Turismo is arguably the most beautiful racing game on the market, featuring hundreds of licensed car brands and an incredible sense of realism. In sharp contrast, Burnout has some of the most spectacular vehicular destruction since the invention of the monster truck. Combine the best of both worlds and you would have the most comprehensive racing game ever devised. The only thing that could make it better would be the ability to throw green turtle shells at other racers? 2) Assassin?s Creed and Hitman Taking elements from two of the best silent assassin games in history could create the perfect blend for Alta?r?s (or at least, his decedent?s) second video game appearance. Since Assassin?s Creed takes place a tad into the future, the stretch wouldn?t even necessarily be that extreme. Given 47?s ability to steal disguises, hide weapons, and most importantly and wield a silenced pistol, Alta?r would make a formidable opponent. Imagine strapping a sniper rifle on the back of a guy who can climb buildings like a spider monkey! Meeting the fabled 47 might be a stretch, but getting a little help from ?The Agency? might be fun addition to the lore. 1) Starfox 64 and Star Wars: Rouge Squadron No, I am not saying that Fox McCloud should Join Luke Skywalker in the battle against the Empire. Instead we should take Fox off of the rail shooter and put him in the same open 3D world made the Rouge Squadron franchise successful. This would also give us an opportunity to introduce more then just three of Fox?s buddies into the fray. A combination like this could save the Starfox series from a case of death by platformer. Of course, hearing Slippy Toad ***** and moan about enemies trailing him in a fully 3D environment might end up compounding our irritation.
