Burnout Paradise

Burnout Paradise is the latest instalment in the Burnout game series. It was released in January 2008 on XBOX 360 and PS3. It is not just the next evolutionary step in the game series but more of a revolution. Burnout Paradise is an open world game which includes lots of new game modes like Stunt Run, Show Time, Marked Man, Challenges and Motor Bikes.

Burnout Paradise has a solid single player mode where you can compete in race,  stunt run, road rage and marked man events to gain licences and unlock cars. This all happens without loading and the entire city is unlocked for you to explore straight away.

Criterion Games has put a lot of effort into making the online game easily accessible to the player and to build a strong online community. Traditionally one would think of racing, road rage and crash as the primary online game modes. This is not the case in Paradise City. According to Criterion Games Freeburn is the most popular online activity. Freeburn includes challenges, road rules and online games like stunt run, road rage and marked man.

Playstation Trophies NOT Retroactive

To all you PSN players, the Trophy update has been released today, but sadly Criterion were not able to implement them retroactively.

This is what Criterion Games said on their website today:

"Burnout Paradise saves are locked to your profile. We had hoped to use this to retroactively award trophies, but we discovered during testing that this is not possible. You will therefore require a fresh game-save to receive trophies in Burnout Paradise. If you're familiar with PS3 trophies already, you'll recognise that this works in the same way as all other games that have added trophy support post-release."

And Matt Webster added this in the forums this morning:

Submitted by ZombieTron on Fri, 08/29/2008 - 14:21

Criterion Games have made some exciting announcements over at the Playstation Blog detailing some of the changes that the day/night cycle will have to Paradise City.

We will get to choose how long the day/night cycle lasts. If you want to zoom through a day you can choose 24 minutes, or if you prefer there is the option to do a real time 24 hour day, and anywhere in between.

When you join an online game the clock is synched to the host and you will see the day fast forward before your eyes.
