*/The action in Burnout Paradise: Ultimate Box is as good as it's ever
been and the addition of the new offline mode, plus all the downloadable
content, really makes the game a tempting offer -- but if you're looking
for a game that gives the straight-away excitement of the previous
Burnout games then this might not be the Burnout for you; the
city-crawling just slows everything down, leaving you stranded at the
finish-line with no easy retry option.
That said, if you're more into exploring the city and taking on
occasional missions when and where you want them in a kind of GTA-style
of play then this is definitely a title that'll appeal to you thanks to
the open and interesting city. The offline multiplayer, promises of
regular new content (for a price, obviously and regrettably) and
integrated online aspect of the game only serve to enhance this.
We may not love Burnout Paradise as much as we once did, but it's still
a great game if you can bear the flaws. /
