    Favorite Burnout So Far

    I have rented this game multiple times and am unable to tare my hands away from my controller.

    All of the different aspects of this game are near perfection. All the different challenges have me driving around Paradise City like a mad man. I just want to complete them all.

    Online is pure addiction. If I do not have the game on me I sometimes play the demo online, which is fun.

    There are, as with every game, some flaws. I sometimes get lost in the giant landscape that is Paradise City and the surrounding area. There should be a better working map, and an easy way to mark secret locations that you have discovered.

    Overall it is a very good racing game, and if you have enjoyed the Burnout franchise, you should definitely pick it up.

      Full disclosure -- I wasn’t a fan of Burnout Paradise when it originally was released. I tried to give it my best effort, but the open-city format proved to be too jarring at the time and so it sat on my shelf for three long years. I’m sure I wasn’t alone in this. Criterion’s decision to eliminate discrete racing tracks in favor of a GTA-style “open world” format quickly alienated a lot of racing fans who just couldn’t wrap their heads around the freedom the developers wanted to bring into their...
