Burnout goes handheld! Ostensibly a "best of" compilation, Burnout Legends takes the form of a portable version of Takedown with content added from the previous two titles. Takedown's obsession with twisted metal brings a Crash Junction tour and requires you to destroy opponents during races to earn a larger boost bar, but the standard world tour brings back classic tracks and Pursuit mode. Legendary vehicles are there to be unlocked but can't all be obtained alone; to complete the collection they must be won from other owners in multiplayer.

A random set of coloured bubbles are arranged at the top of the screen in a hex grid pattern, and a bubble gun is positioned at the bottom. Bubbles are fired out, ricocheting off the walls until they come to rest against another bubble. If a chain of three or more like-coloured bubbles is formed, they burst, and if playing multiplayer, the excess bubbles are sent to the opponent's screen. The game ends if the bubbles rest below the line at the bottom of the screen.
