Burnout Paradise Boxes

Burnout Paradise, the first truly next-gen installation of the fast-paced racing franchise, is still months and months away. It's not slated to drop in the US and Europe until sometime in the fourth quarter this year, but EA have already decided what it's going to look like on store shelves. The boxes for the European versions have been released, both showing a rather sadly dilapidated Porsche-esque car.

can't wait for this game. Going to be fantastic on PS3.

@ SuperSaiyan - im aware that this will also be released on xb360. Criterion says that PS3 has more power to make Burnout even more spectacular. Especially when the cars collide. Xb360 will also be brilliant but not so spectacular.

Don't believe me? check further in N4G.

Dont be upset then when the reviews say they are exactly the same....

THAMMER16828d ago

I think we will get a chance to see for sure once the games are available.

I really think your just looking for any excuse to slam the 360. I can not blame you though. You seem like a hard core Sony fan and Sony has had to bite the bullet for some time now. You must be miserable.

SuperSaiyan46828d ago (Edited 6828d ago )

Should be awesome on 360 as well.

Since EA like only to use their own servers it would be even better to get to play PS3 vs 360 gamers lol.

Edit: Devs have been talking the talk saying all ports i.e. FNR3 and other games will look far better but they haven't.
Lets wait and see...

This game will be made first on the PS3 then gets ported to the 360 although releasing at the same time.

EaziG6828d ago

Ported, "Downscaled", then released on the 360

MK_Red6828d ago

Cant wait for Burnout Paradies but didn't they release the box arts 3 months ago?

THAMMER16828d ago

Why do you think the game will be down scaled? Can you break it down in an inteligent and relevant way or are you just spewing fan boy dribble?

How Burnout Paradise bucked the trend and made open-world racing irresistible

Met with derision from existing Burnout-series fans at the time, Burnout Paradise remains arguably the greatest open-world racing game of all time. Here's why.

SullysCigar1025d ago

I don't know why - and I know I'm probably on my own here - but I liked Takedown more. I think it was just 'different' enough to feel fresh. I also loved the destruction.

On that note, a new Motorstorm would be nice! All that mud, dust and car pieces flying everywhere blew my mind on PS3 - imagine what they could do now.

NJShadow1024d ago

I loved Burnout Paradise, but Burnout 3: Takedown will always be the best game in the series, for me. Burnout 3 is arguably the most fun game ever made, with the greatest licensed soundtrack ever.

EazyC1025d ago

I played through the remaster quite recently. It's not as good as I remember, but I think a lot of that is because the "open world" thing was still pretty fresh back then.

I do think there's a gap in the market for a game like Burnout. With the new gen they could really make car damage a huge selling point again.

BrainSyphoned1024d ago

Paradise gave me open world burnout before I knew it was a thing.

CPTN MITCHELL1024d ago

Burnout paradise remastered and original are my favorite, i got the platinum trophy for both games the nighthawk is my favorite car

Einhander19711024d ago

Personally don't give a shit for open world racers. Give me a new Motorstorm, Split second, Outrun.

I think the crash mode should comeback. Tryng to make the most damage was very cool.

camel_toad1674d ago

That mode was so damn fun. Couldn't believe it when they ditched it.

Flewid6381674d ago (Edited 1674d ago )

Agreed.

Flewid6381674d ago (Edited 1673d ago )

Yeah that made for a good time.

Rebel_Scum1674d ago

Burnout 2 should be above 3 imo. The aftertouch takedown mechanic slowed down the gameplay too much in 3.

Flewid6381673d ago

That's the mechanic that made me enjoy Burnout 3 over the others. It wasn't until they introduced it that I considered the series any good.

Chocoburger1674d ago

I love Takedown, Revenge, and Paradise. Dominator was okay, but it clearly felt like a B-tier game.

After playing those awesome games, I went back to try out part 1 and it was rough. I didn't like the controls (whereas the others felt perfect to me), the elevator music was generic and not enjoyable to listen to.

Finally the game's difficulty was extremely high. I could beat all single player races in Takedown, Revenge, Paradise, Dominator, but could not get first place in the very first race for the first Burnout game. It demands perfection and one slight mistake is all it takes to lose. I have yet to play part 2, but I'm hoping it's more like part 3 than part 1.

ChasterMies1674d ago

Burnout Takedown is my favorite racing game of all time. My wife was addicted to crash mode.

Xenial1673d ago

As soon as I saw Burnout 3: Takedown at #1, I knew the list was legit. lol
