Burnout Paradise Remastered - Xbox One

Burnout Paradise remains as fun as when it came out on Xbox360/PS3 more than 11 years ago. The graphics look mostly like original version except run native on Xbox1. Best is the install size isn't like all Xbox1 games that require often require 50-100+GB hard drive space. Remastered Burnout Paradise 7.6GB Install+159.73MB Update. It's good that EA didn't turn Burnout Paradise install into 20-50GB like many remastered games. Some games made for both Xbox1 and Xbox360 require 50GB install on Xbox1 version while Xbox360 version 8-16GB optional install while Xbox1 version graphics don't look that much better.

For years I've played the Burnout series, Burnout 3 and Burnout Paradise were two of my favorite games out of them. After getting the Platinum for Burnout Paradise on PS3, I felt a sense of accomplishment, but also empty due to the fact I couldn't afford any of the DLC. Fast forward to early this year, and upon hearing the news of Burnout Paradise getting a remaster, I cried tears of joy. I immediately pre ordered and patiently waited for it's release. Being a huge fan of the game, I was excited to play it in true 4K, and man, does it look good. The game still holds up today, and I finally was able to play the DLC! This game brought back so many memories, and I can't wait for play it for years to come.

When this originally came out, I didn't like it at first. I was used to the older Burnout games, where your cars weren't as heavy and the crashes were a lot more dramatic. Ended up going back to it a few years later and fell in love with it. Just had an absolute blast playing around. The fact there are no courses and you just take whatever roads you can is awesome. The remaster is great because it updates the look and also gets you all the DLC stuff, which is also really fun. Overall, I probably have more fun with this than I do most modern racing games.

Although Burnout Paradise, in my humble opinion, is one of the best arcade style racers from the last generation, the update to modern consoles leaves a bit to be desired. In an era of remasters, remakes, and HD versions of old games, Burnout Paradise has done nothing to even approach the bar, let alone raise it. In saying that, however, Burnout Paradise Remastered is still a fun, fast arcade racing game that I'm sure many will enjoy, especially at the discounted prices I've seen it lately.

I love racing titles,so I couldn't resist when this game went on sale for $9.99. If you are into realistic racing,this game might not appeal to you. The game and cars are basic,but the gameplay is different. Race from point A to point B against the computer while crashing into other cars to slow them down. Kinda basic gameplay, but this game was a deal. You would have to be a hardcore fan to purchase this game at release when it probably cost $60. I will finish it then sale and make some money back.

My expectation was just a tiny bump in graphics from the last gen version of this game. It seems like they built this game for this generation of consoles! It is beautiful, fun, and cheap! Don't delay buying this if you're a fan of Burnout games. I thought the running around town would annoy me, but if you can get past the obsessive compulsion to get everything it is an amazing game that is hard to stop playing. There's just one more race at the next stoplight. ;)

I remember playing Burnout Paradise on the Xbox 360, and it did some things right and wrong. The open world was a plus and the environment was great, but the gameplay felt like it was a step back from Burnout 3 Takedown and Burnout Revenge. Now we have the remaster, which kind of makes the lacking gameplay stick out a little more with a more polished environment. It’s not a bad game, it just feels outdated gameplay wise compared to other racing games.

While this may not have been the BEST burnout in the series, it offered someone new. Tons of cars, a beautiful island to explore, and better wrecks. This game was a big part of my childhood, or just the burnout series as a whole, so you’re dad-gum right I bought this beautiful game! And I recommend you do the same
