Burnout Paradise Remastered - PlayStation 4

Burnout Paradise City wasn't necessarily screaming for a remaster, but this household is certainly glad it was done. While many games given a remaster are severely focused on the visuals (think Shadow of the Colossus,) Burnout updates the visuals nicely, but truly, this is a game more concerned with giving you the experience it had hoped when it was first released. Great looking cars, no load time free traversal over the big city and attached island, and smooth racing. While some Burnout purists may be disappointed by Paradise City with the change from almost pure destruction to an open world system chock full of races, most of those race types involve dishing out damage. With nearly every single intersection in the huge maps being a starting point for an event, there's never a shortage of things to do (along with several sorts of hidden collectibles). And that's the real draw here- there's always something to do and all within whatever type of gaming session you have on the table. While you can certainly have all sorts of fun over a short, one hour session, Paradise City is so addictive, a four hour session will go by just as quickly.

I've loved the Burn Out series since it debuted and have always said that Paradise was the best entry. Most would cry heresy saying that's impossible since 3 is the best, which I can't argue, it's definitely one of the best entries and one of the best racers of its respective console gen but I feel like this did everything 3 did and a whole lot more. Burnout Paradise Remastered is what you got last gen but with all the DLC and looking and running a lot better for current consoles. I mean it was already an amazing game as it was and fast as heck to boot but this kicked it all up a notch and throws you into an open world where exploring and finding new races and locations is a lot of fun honestly. Gives you way more options of how you want to approach paths and taking on everyone you go up against, plus it makes for some truly messed up situations of how you end up wrecking your car which obviously was always one of the best things about the series.

When the original Burnout Paradise came out in 2008, I bought it and had a blast playing it. After 10 years, it finally arrives to the PS4 and Xbox One. Is it worth buying for New and Veteran players? Yes*, but there are some caveats that I need to address. I'll start with the Positives first. With this remastered, it comes with all the DLCs and Updates on the disc. So, you will get the additional cars, online modes, and even an additional Island to play and race with. Secondly, the controls are very tight and the physics for all the vehicles handle great and different. The game runs natively 1080P 60FPS on both the PS4 and Xbone and also 4k 60FPS if you have the performance versions of these consoles. However, I will now address the cons for this game. While the graphic does look slightly cleaner and polished, it's not much of a bigger difference from the PS3 to PS4. Also, some of the gameplay aspects has not aged that well. For example, if you are not familiar with the map yet, you will be constantly pausing the game and look at the map to make sure you are heading to the right direction. Next, like many modern racing games you can set a waypoint or have some form of fast travel to reduce the monotony. However, in this game you have to manually drive to all the locations, and without putting a custom waypoint, it goes back to my 1st issue. Lastly, if you wanted to change to a new car you have to drive back to the Junkyard each time and then wait for the vehicle to load and then select it. These issues are annoying at worst to a minor inconvenience at best. Overall, despite some of these issues the game is still fun and if you are a new racer or a returning veteran that likes to take a turn on Memory Lane, then pick up this game. The game has a lot of things to do and you can easily spend hundreds of hours playing this game.

Burn out paradise still is the best car racing game that I have ever played IMO. I was ecstatic when I heard it was coming out as a remake for the PS4. It has lots of cool cars to choose from an great crashes in a large open world city. I bought this one as a Christmas gift since I bought my copy the day it came out.

Burnout Paradise released back in 2008 on PS3 & X360 and it was a game I thoroughly enjoyed. Stunts, crashes, takedowns and much more was on offer in this beautiful racer. A tight and very responsive racer, this game also introduced a huge open world to drive around in both offline and most importantly online with your friends. A little off putting at first because the developers didn't give you a waypoint. They gave you a compass and on the minimap a destination. It was your responsibility to find the quickest route. But this design decision was a solid one. It necessitated learning the map and shortcuts. Now EA has finally released a remaster of this title and on PS4 Pro and a 4K/HDR capable tv this is a sight to behold. Unfortunately the game doesn't support HDR but it's a looker nonetheless.

It's a Fun racing game. With multiple cars to choose from and even motorcycles a little bit for everyone to enjoy this game. They even have some special cars that might look like they came from an 80's movie. check out the trailer for this game if you don't believe me. That's why I bought this game. it's fun, familiar, and looks good to! this is the one PS4 Car Game I would tell you to purchase if you're looking for a car game to ad to your collection.

This game is amazing! The handling of the cars are very easy to get into and the pace of the game is FAST! It may not let you customize your vehicles, but that doesn't bother me since I dont like spending time on those anyway. In this game, you drive around in an open city where you can race anywhere. It has fun event you can participate and it can get competitive. The crash is fun and well made. If you have a bunch of friends who also enjoy racing, you can even race online together. This game is just amazing.. perfect ten!!

This game is the perfect way to take out road rage in a safe and acceptable form. I do wish they would have brought back the destructive mode that was featured in the PS2 release, "Burnout: Revenge" where you accumulate points by causing the most damage to the vehicles in the surrounding area in one launch. Other than that missing feature, this game has already provided me with hours upon hours of entertainment. Even my girlfriend has fun just driving around and exploring the map!
