since its free roam and has wider enviornments how are races and road rage events are they less cluttered(which I dont like) and less chaotic??? Do they computers follow you if you take a shortcut and not the main road? Details please

I felt in the demo in that one race event was it was waay too short and I didnt get to takedown enough cars. Is it like this in the full game?

Its a mix, some of the races are shorter, like in the demo, but there are longer races as well. The computer adds people when you are racing, so there is always a full complement of cars for each race, not just ones that are "around" at the time you start.

The new marked man events are like the anti road rage, where everyone is hunting you, these can be really hard unless you have started to uncover short cuts.

If you liked Burnout 3, this is the next logical evolution, you'll probably like it.

I didn't play NFS:Carbon, so I can't comment on similarities and differences there.

There are lots of different things to do, literally every intersection is a new event. There is only one city, but its pretty large, and jammed full of stuff to do. You definetlty won't be hurting for things to do.

Also, for those who enjoyed traffic checking from BUrnout:Revenge (Not every one did) IN Paradise, there are three types of cars. Stunt Cars (Handle like Burnout 3), Aggression Cars (Handle like Revenge, they can traffic check and loose boost for wrecks), and Speed Cars (Have a higher top speed, but can only boost when the meters full). Basically, they found away to appease those that hated traffic checking from revenge, but also appease those that loved it.

Truly, if you have ever played a burnout game and enjoyed it, this is the best one yet. The only drawback is the lack of crash mode. I actually enjoy the showtime mode that replaced it, but it doesn't have that puzzle qwuality of figureing out exactly what to do to get a high score.
