5. MISSION 4: PASSAGE TO GOTHAM
======================================================================
Welcome to Burnout 3.5: Passage to Gotham! You've now reach the first 
of two racing levels in this game, and if you're a fan of the Burnout 
franchise, you will enjoy them. This level sees three objectives, and 
two of them will employ the Road Rage and Time Attack modes of 
Burnout 3: Takedown. The last one is something new, but it should be 
fun. I mean, come on, you're driving the Batmobile!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
a. Takedown the Escort Vehicles
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You're hot on the trail of a group of thieves. The truck that carries 
the stolen item is being guarded by a number of escort vehicles driven
by thugs. You will need to take them down. There's no time limit, and 
you really can't fail this mission. Start accelerating, go forward and 
Alfred will inform you about the truck. As you continue down the road, 
turn right when you see the blue arrows and you should see a gate. 
Drive through it to begin.

I won't go into details about the road conditions and all. You only 
need to knock into these escort vehicles as you continue driving. 
Along the way, you should pick on instant boost, which helps you 
accelerate faster. There's no time limit, and there's no minimum 
number of vehicles to takedown, so just enjoy it until you reach a 
checkpoint.

Do note though that you can actually clear this objective without 
taking down a single vehicle. This will preserve your armor, but your 
reputation suffers. Yes, you gain reputation by knocking these cars 
out, so why not? Be careful, however, not to knock into civilian 
cars. Your reputation decreases when you do that.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
b. Jump the Narrowborough Bridge
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You will have two minutes and fourty five seconds (I think, can't 
exactly remember even though I've beat this game like, four times) to 
reach the Narrowborough Bridge. The thugs are trying to raise the 
bridge, so that the gap will be too wide even for your heroics to jump 
over. 

My strategy is, speed! Pick up instant boost whenever and wherever 
possible, and don't let go of your accelerator unless you're attempting
to drift. Don't bother taking down enemies, avoid civilians car, and
you can beat the timing comfortably with some time to spare.

You also don't need to "jump" the bridge. A cut-scene will appear when 
you reach the bridge, and you will see a cool sequence of the Tumbler 
fyling over the bridge. Pretty awesome.

Oh, and you will reach another checkpoint after the cut-scene too.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
c. Destroy the Truck
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The first part of this objective is for you to catch up with the 
truck. Speed up until you find the truck in sight. As you drive closer
to the truck, a distance meter will appear on the back of the truck. 
When you're ready to attack, the R2 signal appears on the back of the 
truck. This is when you press the R2 button. Two missiles will be 
fired towards the truck.

You will also notice the health of the truck on the left side of the 
screen. Repeat the process of closing in, and firing at it until its 
health depletes completely to end this level. Save and proceed.

You will also unlock a host of goodies, including two Film Clips, an 
Interview, a Passage to Gotham Mission Mode, a Passage to Gotham Time 
Attack Mode and a Prototype Batmobile. Access these under the Bonus 
option in the Main Menu!
