What didn't you like about it?
Did you like any of the other games in the series?
I tried Burnout 3 a little and it was just eh. Had some wierd multiplayer mode that just felt like I was driving against walls the whole time with sparks.
I tried Burnout Revenge at a EB Games and I swear it felt SLOW. Even when boosting. I had to put it down and walk away.
This one, I have only played the demo but it felt like the city was one big brown blur. Like it wasn't easy to differiate the streets and stuff. And I could only find ONE race it I took a wrong turn or did something and it ended early on. Then I played it with some random person and just turned into "drive to the end of the street, turn around, try to the other player and repeat."
After that I just deleted it and moved on. Maybe cause there wasn't as much of an emphasis on RACING which I really liked from Burnout 2. I am thoroughly enjoy Pure though.
Anyway about Burnout, it's gonna sound cliche a lot of people (IRL and the internet) have said the game is much much better than the demo. There's still a emphasis on racing, though I will accept it's been lessened so that other events like Road Rage and Marked Man get noticed and played too. I really enjoyed Burnout 1, 2 and especially 3, so perhaps that does play a small role in why I like the game.
Also, Burnout Revenge was HORRIBLE, the colour palette was changed to mainly browns so that it felt "grittier" and I definitely about about the slow comment.
Also, so close to Platinum :D
Have you ever tried Burnout: Dominator? Its not made by Criterion, but its awesome. They put the emphasis back on racing; it doesn't even have a crash mode! Its all about risk-taking to keep up your burnout chain.
And I will definitely pay for any Criterion DLC. I love Burnout Paradise so hard.
