Just looking for some posative feedback as to why you think Paradise is good as all I see so far is negative at the forums on xbox, even the people who say that it rocks dont say why, graphics alone do not make a game
it does look great, but thats not why I'm loving Paradise, it ticks the next Burnout boxes for me!
It goes like the clappers... and the car in the demo is one of the slowest cars in the game!
I love the jumps over the ramps and off the car parks and finding the short cuts, so much so that I dream about them!!
Paradise as a full game has everything all the other Burnout games have except a couple of minor details like a speedo and the big arrows blocking the city and limited repetitive crash junctions. Those are the only 3 things that Paradise doesn't have which previous Burnouts had (that I can think of right now anyway).
I'm loving the proper implementation of the "free roam" "open world" concepts - the fact that no matter where you are there's an event or challenge you can do (albeit sometimes you're not in the best car for that event) but if you're bored you can just crash your car up in a big old showtime pile up (which is a very good game mode, a lot more challenging than the old crash junctions because you don't have the crefully pre-placed traffic and multipliers to go for to get gold etc.)
Im a big fan of how fluid driving round the city is - everythnig is very well spaced for the speed you are going with the street widths wide enough accomadate 90 degree drifts in the grid layout of downtown.

It feels like Burnout!

First game to ever do "open world free roam" properly.
