Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box Demo

Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box is a racing game with both arcade and simulation elements where players will have to roam in an open world environment while choosing from a wide variety of races available.

The game doesn't have much of a story: players will be introduced to Paradise City and his illegal street racing network. Earning a driving license on the street of Paradise City isn't easy at all so taking out opponents is a must.

The one who will guide you through this madness of a city, where pedestrians seems to be missing for some reason, is DJ Atomika. He will offer you information about future races and almost everything you need to know in order to become the most notorious driver this town has ever known.

If at the story chapter the game doesn't excel, it's another thing when the open world is involved. Players will be given total control over their choices: where to race next, what type of race to choose and who to drive against.

There are three types of cars available: Stunt, Speed and Aggression. Make sure you have one of each prepared for the various events around the huge city. The physics are extremely realistic and driving the cars will sometimes feel too real as crashes are inevitable.

An impressive damage system was created by the developers in order to make the driver step back to earth each time he feels like pushing the pedal to the metal. There are Auto Repair shops all around the map so keep your eyes open or your car will lose from its performance each time you have a serious crash.

One of the best things about the game is the open world system: the massive virtual city is beautifully created and so are the cars that race in it. Even if the often crashes will make some of you frustrated, the cars are a lot of fun to drive and the amazing physics can be pretty rewarding at times.
