But you can't shut it down, turning Paradise into audio hell. Crashes look fantastic, but there's no aftertouch and no way to control when it goes in slowmotion. They really ruined that. But it's gonna sell huge anyway, just because of the title, the promotion and kids who think driving around aimlessly crashing into things and eachother is the best Burnout has to offer. Then again, in Paradise City, it probably is. The DJ is the first thing I shut down in Burnout 3 and I was pleased to never hear that voice again.

I think they're just trying to cram too much into it. I hate the DJ, and the free roaming just makes it feel a bit aimless.. Oh, and 'stunt mode'? Its a car, not a skateboard. Still, the crashes are top-notch as ever! :) Im not sure about this one, I think they peaked with Burnout 2 and have gone downhill since EA took over..

I can't wait for this to come out! Online mode as well was brilliant fun. Hopefully will have a bit more to it than just taking each other out, could get dull after a bit.

Which to play more? Now I'm not worried anymore. Burnout Paradise disqualified itself and is already my pick for most dissapointing title of 2008.

After the demo (which was amazing) this is probably one of the games I'm most looking forward to in January. In most months up to this point, that isn't saying much but Jan is a cavalcade of awesomeness and kicks off the 2008 of PS3-owning-bliss nicely Predictable, yes but also very fitting choice of tune.
