Review Summary
Burnout Paradise’s theme is an arcade racing game in a city built exclusively to cater for this race. The experience of Burnout Paradise is unique and wonderfully. The game opens on Paradise City itself with Guns ‘N Roses song. Paradise City a standard racing game city, complete with all the usual landmark locations and boring background traffic. By driving in the city you’ll discover new roads, shortcuts, and destructible objects for you to destroy. At almost every intersection of a road there are new events of some kind, and throughout the game, you’ll still be discovering new things you didn’t even know were there. The racing remains exciting, standard races are intense and thrilling, road rage events are full of wreckful delights, stunt runs have you jumping, barrel rolling, and flat spinning. Before reaching the finishing line, multiple enemy cars will try to crash into you. You earn new cars by successfully going through challenges. Reviewers find Burnout Paradise to feature lots of thrills with superb visuals. Moreover they find the online functionality is flawless, perfect and addicting but would have liked to see more variety in race and event types. They also didn’t like the soundtrack and found the DJ dialogue awful.

In many ways, yes this is a definitive improvement over previous Burnout games, the online mode is fantastic and the open world environment has many perks that reward players who make the effort to learn its small nuances. The game is let down by the lack of a proper Crash modem, the irritating sat nav and the lack of a retry button. Everything else though is nothing short of excellent and Criterion should be commended for taking a bold step with their beloved franchi... Read more

Burnout Paradise is an excellent game and if you have the capability to play online and the time to learn the city inside out, it may well prove to be a title that keeps you enthralled for many months to come. Those who will only be playing this offline however, or who were looking for that quick arcade fix - a game to drop into for a quick blast every once in a while - may well come away disappointed and stressed out. For all the omissions and strange design choices ... Read more

It's entirely possible that some people might not enjoy Burnout Paradise's significant shift in direction, specifically those who simply wanted another incremental Burnout sequel. Indeed, Paradise is anything but incremental, and while it might prove a polarizing experience for some, most will likely appreciate what a radical overhaul this game really is. The open-world design isn't just a lazy gimmick--it's a wonderfully executed concept that doesn't rob the game of ... Read more

"Great game!"
Reviewer: ps3gamereviews.co.uk4 weeks ago- Overall 8

This is a very fun game to play. I will give you a few details about the game... -Some of the controls can be sloppy at times, but other than that, it's fine. -Graphics are great. Water ripples, damage looks great. - Soundtrack is okay. It's mainly rock that's on there. As most of you probably know, the game is a free roam game. When you want to do an event, you pull up to a set of traffic lights and start them. This is both good and bad. If you lose an event, you... Read more
