Burnout: Paradise - The Ultimate Box

Smash! Crash! Let's see that again...in super slo mo!

A simple concept executed to perfection. You have an open world, riddled with conveniently placed ramps, collapsed bridges and derelict railway lines. Equipped with either a high powered car or motorbike you can leap from railway to motorway to walkway and back again.. For extra style. What makes it even more enjoyable is when it all goes wrong. The camera cuts to close up and super slow motion to watch your car crumple in amazing detail. The world is littered with events (every junction), these include straight races, stunt runs and the ubiquitous "road rage". During a race you are encouraged to be aggressive towards your fellow racer (road rage demands it) and when you knock them into a wall the camera cuts away to let you see it in all its slow motion glory. These events are required to advance but you can do them when and where you like, explore the local area first to familiarize yourself with local shortcuts and routes.
The multiplayer and online aspects are so simple and easy. If you are using an xbox controller then a simple flick of the d-pad and you are online in one shape or another. There is also an in game browser for news and updates.
The game is an absolute joy and a must for anyone who enjoys a good arcade racer. Just one thing missing... A driver. All the cars are empty, while you don't notice when you are driving you certainly do when you are close up and in slow motion. Strangely enough the bike rider disappears when you crash a bike to. I understand that if they had implemented something like flatouts drivers flying through the windscreen it may have seemed controversial, especially if you imagine the result in slow motion. Still, i think there should be the option to switch it on or off.

At last a truly fantastic car racing game for the PC. It's fun. It looks great. It knocks the socks of the competition.

If you want GTA without the swearing, nudity and violence, here it is.

You haev a totally open-ended driving game, where you can obtain up to 75 different cars, drive as fast or slow as you like around a truly massive city environment. Just pull up at the traffic lights, rev your engine and race! Choose from Road rage (knock opponents off the road), Straight races (perform stunts for points), Marked man (race while pursued) and burn up with specific cars.

Don't take my word for it, download the demo. You'll be glad you did.

This game is an epic, a must buy. If you want a graphically beautiful racing game, this is the game for you. The best part is the showtime mode which allows you to try and get as many points as possible by crashing into every vehicle in sight. An absolute must buy for anyone who loves their racing games

Since the PC has now got the Burnout games on them you can play one of the best driving games around. It's not all about the best racer it's also about taking out your oponents or avoiding being taken out yourself. You can't drive on real roads like this so it is all the more fun doing it on this. Slam people into a wall or jump off a motorway onto a road a long way below, it all happens here.

Great game fast action ,great crashes in slow motion, no messing about with upgrades and unnecessary modding just lots of driving whether its knocking cars off the road, road races,stunt driving,setting faster times over 64 named roads against other players whether you are in multiplayer or single player ,60 achievements ,jumps,bikes, fantastic graphics ,great music tracks built in,what more do you want out of a racing game.
