Review Summary
Review Summary
The review summary is a meta review of the most relevant reviews of the product. What are the key aspects that most reviewers point out. The summary is written by TestFreaks users. If the summary is missing or flawed please help out your fellow TestFreaks users by providing a new or updated review summary.
Burnout Paradise is all about cars and racing, featuring the widest range of cars. Each road has its own Time Trial and Stunt modes and the soundtrack is stunning. You are free to drive over a huge plot of land surrounding Paradise City and its outlying countryside. You will go through desolate urban alleys or shoot up across a rocky railroad trestle. Burnout Paradise is so perfect that you can actually feel the exhilarating thrill of speed and surpassing all obstacles. Paradise City includes many hidden secrets to be discovered, such as Super Jumps, shortcuts, gas stations, targets to demolish, and so on. You will experience unique rides and aggressive enemies in Stunt Runs, Road Rage and Marked Man. Drivers must be fast in knocking opponents off the road. It is so fun and addictive that you’ll want to surpass over everything to come out as a winner. Reaching the finish line in one piece requires good ability, thinking skills and luck. According to some reviews not all players are happy with the setup as one cannot straight away retry an event after failing. However every single junction in Paradise City allows an opportunity for victory. A few players find that some missions feel like errands, the game lacks progression and is a bit shallow.

Burnout Paradise
Reviewer: ztgamedomain.com10 April 2008- Overall 9

Change is always a hard thing to swallow. When Unwritten Law changed from punk rock to pop rock I sighed. When Nintendo changed the name of their latest console from Revolution to Wii I chuckled; and when Criterion announced the latest chapter in their Burnout franchise was going from a straight-forward arcade title into an open world experience I was skeptical. The Burnout series has always been known for certain things: buttery smooth control, sharp visuals, and no-... Read more

Burnout Paradise
Reviewer: gaming-age.com24 February 2008Burnout Paradise is a fine racing game indeed. I only wish there were more Road Rage modes and other varieties spread along the map as I would say a good 65% of the modes are races. While this is fine and certainly fun, I don’t buy Burnout titles to race, I buy them for the carnage. Hopefully the creators will give us some downloadable races or modes, or maybe even a proper crash mode option in the future. Even if this never happens, the new direction the developers t...

Genau so und nicht anders hatte ich mir den Einstieg der Burnout-Reihe ins Next-Generation-Zeitalter gewünscht. Audiovisuell ist Burnout: Paradise wirklich ein echter Hammer und zeigt auf eindrucksvolle Weise, zu welchen Leistungen die aktuellen Konsolengenerationen fähig sind. Bereits beim ersten Crash wird euch ordentlich die Kinnlade nach unten klappen, da wirklich jeder Unfall ein faszinierendes Spektakel ist und darüber hinaus immer individuell ausfällt. Etwas ve...

Reviewer: hard.hardgame2.com13 February 2008- Overall 8

Independientemente del resultado, es digno de elogio que en Criterion, lejos de estancarse, hayan reinventado por completo la experiencia Burnout. Pero es que además el resultado es muy notable. Confirma a Burnout como la saga insignia de conducción de EA, muy por encima de los últimos y flojos Need For Speed, sino también es uno de los títulos del género más completos que hemos podido ver hasta el momento en esta generación. Enorme, lleno de retos, con un multijugado... Read more

User Review by coa17ch
Reviewer: coa17ch, gametrailers.com3 weeks agoThis is one of the best racing games I've come across. From the beginning, it is fast paced. With plenty of cars. The game says there are 75 cars. In all reality there are less than that. There are several cars with different modifications. More armor or more boost or speed. Even with this, it is still fun. It is definately not a game that goes by too quick. The online play is great. With the use ... Read more

Burnout Paradise
Reviewer: swapgame.com08 February 2008- Overall 8

Still has all the elements of Burnout: Burnouts, fast, furious, Takedowns, wrecks, guts and glory! Open World Game play - Can't blame them from trying something different but it gets old very quick in one-player mode. I think the consensus out there is some love it some hate it, I'm... in the middle! The way you go online seamlessly is a nice touch and racing online is a lot of fun. Definitely worth a play to form your own opinion. Read more

So, so annoying
Reviewer: Splint07 from Kent, England, lovefilm.com31 January 2008- Overall 2

Burnout Paradise should have been a great game. The handling is suitably arcadey, drifting and dodging oncoming traffic is satisfying, the graphics are great, and you can have a lot of fun just wandering around the city, driving the wrong way down the interstate, causing mayhem in rush hour traffic, boosting off the ends of unfinished bridges, exploring building sites, leaping from the roofs of multi-storey car parks and looking for ramps to launch you through the air...

Burnout Paradise
Reviewer: Gaming Guru, metacritic.com30 January 2008- Overall 9

No other racing game (except maybe Motorstorm when boosting) gives the sense of just barely in control speed and the OMG wow crashes like Burnout. Super graphics, physics and the cars don't handle like pushing a shopping cart uphill on ice like some other racing titles do. The sandbox style means lots of replay value, its a buy not a rental.
