Signature Takedowns (Burnout Revenge) was Burnopedia's Featured Article in May 2010.
A Signature Takedown is a takedown which has to be met with a specific criteria or location on a track. Burnout Revenge features a variety of Signature Takedowns on every track as did its predecessor Burnout 3: Takedown.
A Signature Takedown can be performed in any World Tour event in Burnout Revenge which features rival racers. A Signature Takedown is shown during an event in a similar way as to a regular takedown except a camera will show the vehicle that the player has taken down with a flash of light and a camera shutter sound as well as the name of the Signature Takedown.
Signature Takedowns in Burnout Revenge are only shown once after you have acquired it for the first time as opposed to Burnout 3 when the same Signature Takedown would be shown every time it is acquired.
In Burnout Revenge all Signature Takedowns are based on the physical environment and no special vehicles are used in a Signature Takedown. In Burnout 3 some Signature Takedowns require the player to smash an opponent into a vehicle such as a Big Rig, Motor Home or Tuk-tuk.
Each location also has a Takedown Book, like a photo album for your Signature Takedowns. There are 3 Signature Takedowns in each location, and these 24 Signature Takedowns count towards the 100% completion of the game.
