Burnout Paradise: I have always been a reluctant fan of Burnout, since I got burnout 2 free with my crystal green XBox. I almost never played it, as I really don’t generally like driving games. This an opinion I’ve since changed, I don’t like realistic driving games. Twenty minutes into Burnout 2 and I was HOOKED, I lost whole weekends to ‘just one more go on that crash junction’.
Anyay the series has got stedily worse and less ‘fun’ with each annual increment. Until now - initially I was worried by the ‘free roaming’ gameplay and it is easy to get lost on ‘challenges’ and there is no retrying crash junctions (my fav bit).
But its a change for the good - and the online play mode is mentally good fun.

I’ve been playing demo on PS3.
