Burnout Paradise Reflections
by Firestorm217 on Comments
Okay so I write this reflection not after ive beat the game because well…I havnt. For those of you who've played the game you know completing 40 events is quite the difficult trek. However, the first 3 days I owned this game I played a combined playtime of 30 hours, which is something I brag to my friends on a regular basis. This game has many good features which makes it the addicting game it is, however it has certain faults to it which have made me neglect to play it for a couple days. I suppose I'll start with the faults, and the biggest one at that which is the repetitiveness of the single player, and multiplayer parts of the game… which I suppose, would make the whole game. Throughout the single player game you can participate in 5 different types of events (not including "Showtime" and road rules). While each event is in a different part of the city, doing the same thing over and over again gets tiresome, however this was after 30 hours of play. The multiplayer aspect of the game generally does the same thing but with more area exclusive challenges such as get a oncoming time of 20 seconds on the I88 highway. These challenges can be completed with up to 8 people over Xbox live. Now after doing these for hours on end, free burning around Paradise City can become stagnant and old. However those would be my only problems with the game. Paradise City is amazing, not the game (although it is amazing) but the city itself. Whatever you want to do this city can support your needs. Whether it being pulling off double barrel rolls at the airport, getting 520 degree flatspin at the beach, or just unloading all your speed down the I88 highway. The online can keep you immersed in it for hours on end. The most common online is freeburning, which is just freeroaming around the city. From this menu the host can initiate races (anywhere throughout the city) or multiplayer events. I'll stop here for now and leave the rest to figure out on your own. Paradise City is a perfect example of a AAA game that I would definitely recommend. This Is DJ Atomik-I mean Peter LeBlanc…Signing off.
