Burnout Paradise = $8 on PSN RIGHT NOW. Buy it or get banned.

Surprised nobody said "Bomba!" yet.

It's very tempting to pick this up, despite the fact I already own the disc version and have it on the PC. It would be nice to just pick up and play.

If I were to buy this, would it work with the save I have for the disc version?
I gotchu bro
 
Been playing the free version from the UK PS+ store and really having a blast with this game. The variety of play modes and fun stuff you can do kept me coming back for plenty more. Pissed cuz you lost a race? Go take out your aggression with a game of roadkill! Or just go into showtime mode and smash the crap outta things. The only thing I can't stand about this game is that one trophy requiring a USB camera…so close to getting a Plat on this one.

Can anyone confirm if the US ver would be compatible with my UK save? Online play is fun, although co-op can be a real bitch when that one person in the room doesn't want to co-operate and head to the target zones :(

(1) This game is absolutely fantastic, and
(2) it's the worst Burnout in the entire series, and I hope they go back to BO3 for inspiration on the next game.

I think it's the best, the open world alone made it better and more fun and way superior than every other Burnout games.
 
This is also the only game I love to play with randoms. Just get online and do some challenges with a pick up group. I always lucked out and got a group of drunken Brits. Good times.

Hell I might pick up some beers and hit this one up again tonight. :)

Did I say Criterion cares? Yup, they care. They made a patch that allows to restart an event at any time. See, they got their bases covered! Best game this gen.



Not sure, but you don't need 100% billboards/gates. Easily obtainable without any guide.

If you had the X360 version, it was much harder cause you couldn't use that site and you had to get 100%.


Yeah I can confirm you don't need to get ALL the billboards to get the trophy…cuz I haven't found them all yet. I think to get the trophy you just need to smash through like 10 or 50 of them…can't remember the numbers for the billboards and for the yellow gates.
 
Such a gem of a game. Was one of the early delights with the HD consoles.

My only complaint is that they didn't manage to retain the code that allowed a car to be shorn completely in twain. That would have been rad.

I can confirm that the US version will not read the UK save, as I just went through that.

And we never did get planes. That would have been madness ;P

And for those who haven't tried it, bikes are incredible. They don't have boost but they're incredibly fast and maneuverable from the get go. The game also reduces the density of cars on the road allowing some of the best free roaming out there.

Bought game on launch and bought another copy for my wife's brother. Ban avoided.

...yeah..Need for Slow Hot Pursuit should not even be called a racing game.
I was never an FPS whore in anything, but between playing Burnout Revenge, Burnout Paradise and Wipeout HD, when it comes to racing games I have become one of those insufferable "60 FPS or bust" bores. I realized this when I picked up Hot Pursuit. :(

So much god awful music stuck in my head because of this game lol.
When I first started playing it I just left the classical tracks playing.

How dare you!!Avril is a heavenly singer and do not do awful music.

Welp! No buy then. May consider buying the Euro disc if the save is compatible but Sony needs to fix this incompatible save business especially when the world is no longer constrained to one specific marketplace. For example, while I buy disc-based games mostly from Australia/Euro region, most of myndownloadable games are purchased from US and JPN PSN. I also occasionally buy US discs (Dead Space 2, Marvel vs Capcom 3, etc).
 
PLayed the crap out of this game on xbox. First game I ever got 1000/1000 gamerscore and first game I ever hit #1 on the world leader-boards. Maintained it for a week or two too :P, good times. Maybe I'll pick it up again sometime.

Lack of crash mode drops it down a few notches. At least they patched in a restart mode.

Pretty sure the Euro disc won't read the Euro PSN version either.
 
I think I should finally get the Platinum for this game now that I have a PS Eye (thanks to my Move bundle).
 
I wish I knew if this was going to be free for PS+ like it was in the EU. I'm considering buying it, but I'd be unhappy if it showed up for free in a month.
 
Ugh, long download times FTL. Not as bad as inFamous at least.

Also, thanks for the heads up about that Girlfriend song guys. Custom soundtrack here I come.
