Criterion kicks but, best battle racing game ever!

User Rating: 9.5 | Burnout Paradise PS3
WOW, this is good. A Burnout game that takes advantage of next-gen abilities is good. I knew it was a freeplay open world before I got it but after I got it what surprised me was how big it was. The large open world enviroment kept me hooked for a long time but what really caught my eye was the crashes, they are so descriptive and realistic you will just want to crash all the time.
Beautiful graphics on the PS3 are amazing, there is so much detail on the road, the buildings, and the cars even under the cars.
The sound is pretty good but the Dj host guy whatever does get anoying and sounds funny. the music and sound effects are ok, could have been better though.
The gameplay is excellent, great racing experience with good AI, and great controls easy to use controls.
The only thing this game lacks is splitscreen, I cant race any friends in the house. There is online multiplayer and its seamless and fun, it makes up for no splitscreen.
Overall Burnout Paradise is a fun game with lots things to do in it, great variety of crash and burn races and stunts. I give it a 9.5 superb.
