  • Abstract:  Now, this is paradise. What already was the best extreme racing game around has undergone a massive overhaul under the hood in Burnout Paradise. Expanding on the already winning “burn, baby, burn” racing formula with tons of spectacular vehicle violen...

  • Abstract:  Think the rush of triple-A titles is over? Think again: Burnout Paradise is a bona fide winner and it just might be the best action racing game ever created!

  • Seamlessly integrates a massive single-player experience with a living, breathing online; 60 frames per second racing action.
  • Old-school fans may miss Crash Mode; map navigation isnt perfect; cant warp around the map to retry races.
  • Burnout has evolved from a fairly niche racing title to a complete institution in seven years. We last saw the racer in Burnout Revenge, which made for a proper send-off to the last generation of hardware (and a decent Xbox 360 port). Now, Criterion de...

  Published: 2006-01-01, review by: strategyinformer.com

  • Abstract:  The hotly anticipated update from Criterion delivers the goods, although not packaged as you might expect. In place of directed set pieces is a roaming open world of a game that asks a lot more of the player than simply putting the pedal to the metal. ...

  • Abstract:  Max EveringhamThe Burnout series has always been a super-arcadey, fun and very, very fast racing game. The latest in the series, subtitled Paradise continues the tradition but offers a significant evolution on the game play that, if the developers di...

  • The open-ended world offers up a lot of possibilities; the crashes, a series hallmark, are just as impressive as they were in past instalments; the sensation of speed is ridiculous, you better have nerves of steel if you want to survive this ride; the ...
  • Just like in real life, navigating through the huge city can be intimidating; the learning curve is far steeper this time around that you will spend some time getting acclimated to the game; an instantaneous "restart" option would have definitely come ...
  • It wont wow you with a high degree of realism like Gran Turismo will but for pure racing action, it is one of the best titles ever produced. Give it a chance and you might find yourself having the most fun youve ever had in a virtual car.

  Published: 2008-02-11, review by: darkzero.co.uk

  • Abstract:  It’s hard to believe it is only just over six years since Burnout first hit our consoles, the game has changed so much in such a short amount of time. It’s gone from a relatively simple arcade racer, with each instalment adding new elements, and has no...
