There are so many good racing games out there that it's very hard to pick your favorite.Well things just got a little harder.Burnout Paradise is worth checking out.If you're tired of all those arcade racing games,than look no further than this game.
The game is an open world racing which let's you cruise around a huge map.It is similar to the one in NFS series but a lot better in almost any aspect.While in NFS you were supposed to do all the races,and if there was one causing you frustrations and and you couldn't finish it,you'd just let the game be and play something else.Burnout Paradise doesn't let you do that,as it doesn't cause that feeling of frustrations when you can't finish a race on the 1st place.There are tons of races all over the entire map.They are not all shown on you map but at almost every lights at any junction there is a race available for you.The great thing about the game is that if you don't win a race,you don't have to keep trying it until you succeed or eventually give up.There are other races waiting for you, that you won't end up doing the same race over and over again.It's highly unlikely to ever feel frustrated in this game.
Graphically the game looks very good.All car models,eventhough they are not real cars,look great and their crashes are very spectacular.The game has very few low-res textures and there are no pop-up problems whatsoever despite the huge map.The framerate is always steady and never drops despite tremendous things happening on the screen.Burnout Paradise is one of the best looking racing games.
Probably the worst part of the game is probably it's music.The soundtrack is horrible.There isn't probably any good song in the whole game.EA has usually great soundtracks in games but they blew it with Burnout Paradise.Besides that,the narrator,the DJ,also has a pretty annoying voice which will make your hair turn gray.
Overall Burnout Paradise is a must have for racing games fans and also for those looking for some fun.This game is fun and addictive.
Good:
-great graphics
-great crashes
-great sense of speed
Bad:
-bad music
-no GPS system
My Score: 8.8
