Electronic Arts showcased the last Burnout, called "Paradise", much more colorful than the previous ones. It's really nice looking, it goes as fast as ever and the cars destructions are quite impressive.
Stunning, i'm not sure how the games gonna work.. driving around looking for a few races? Burnout: Revenge had tons and tons of races and gametypes... will this still offer all that variety.. and alot of races?
I love how that slowmotion head on crash looks... but look closely and you will notice that the green car doesnt have a driver :P
neither does your own car... but then again its a pree-alpha build. Did the old games use have people walking around on the streets? The city feels kinda dead and empty.
Wait can you still crash into cars on your own side like Burnout Revenger? If that's so then this ain't a buy from me, I really hate that "gameplay" addition... takes the skill out of burnout
LONG LIVE BURNOUT 2!

We're so far away from the amazingness of Burnout 2 already (3 and onwards) that we can only hope that Burnout has evolved into something completely different, thus possibly being brilliant in a brand new way.
You should check out Burnout Dominator on the PS2 and PSP if you liked B2 though, the burnout combos are back in that! :D
Well, I guess I'm crazy, but I loved being able to just plough through everything. It's just something different from the usual simulation racers. If I wanted arcadey simulation, I'd get PGR.
I loved that your car could go sideways in Outrun and still be under control, same goes for Burnout 3/4's stupid physics. Anywho, this looks like a step towards more realistic driving, which I don't have a problem with either. I'm dubious about the whole open-world thing though.
looks fun, i love the burnout series even though i am more of a sim racer, should be fun to drive around online in a city with other players, i just hope ea will stop trying to get so much money out of the DLC
The crashes look great, but the whole game doesn't awake my interest.
For me, the best Burnout was number 2. They just exaggerated after that.
MORE speed, MORE crashes, MORE effects... the soul of the game dissapeared...
