Paradise is simply not a Burnout game. It’s a great racing game, but there’s nothing Burnout about it.
I’ll take Burnout 3 or even Burnout Revenge any day. That crash junctions are the series bread and butter.
I also strongly agree that Burnout 3: Takedown and Burnout Revenge are the best in the series, the most focused and polished… Burnout Paradise is OK but lacks something those other two have.
Whenever I think about Burnout Paradise I think about somebody (I think it was Yahtzee) describing the world of Burnout Paradise as a post apocalyptic nightmare world where cars have taken over, and one lone human hides out in his radio station broadcasting desperately to a murderous mechanical audience.
Burnout Revenge.
Fight me.
I have fond memories of hanging out, smoking weed, and filling my belly with diet soda while playing Burnout Revenge for the PS2.
Being serious it’s Revenge
Burnout 3 baby!!
I think paradise is a better game, but I prefer takedown because I loved the road rage mode where you try to create the most damage, and I like the races not to be on an open map.
