Burnout Paradise - Paradise City

I don't know why, but this game seems so hopelessly shallow from everything I read/watch about it.

Perhaps it is, but far less so than the latest need for speed...
I'll still be buying it for my speed fix anyways.

Is it me or does that look very grey and is using some sort of tint-like filter for the entire city? Where is the blue skies, golden sand and bright coloured environments that a paradise city should require?

I'm looking forward to it but the colour scheme is not too pleasing.

The trailer won't work for me it just says missing parameters.

I think I speak for all sane people when I say DJ Atomica can fuck right off!!

Looks stupid, i hate games where you just press the nos button and go a million miles per hour.

Having played the Burnout Paradise demo and been I huge fan of the previous versions, I have to say this open range design doesn't appeal in the slightest. Bring back the tight roads, crash modes and simple but addictive gameplay. This just feels all wrong for a burnout game. The general concensious from other players has generally been very negative. EA, what have you done. Perhaps when the full game comes out they may take in some of the concerns, but I suspect it is too late now. Let's hope I'm proved wrong.
