    The game is great... when you play it on a steering wheel. I have a Logitech T150 that is both PS3 and PS4 compatible. We still play burnout on the PS3 when we have a bunch of people over. The kids love it. So you think the remastered version would simply carry over that feature. Wrong. After waiting months for the remaster, we find out that they didn't bother making it for a wheel.

The menu options from the PS3 version that control the wheel weren't included on the PS4 version. This is the biggest gaming disappointment of the year.… Expand

    No crash mode. I enjoyed the first burnout and the destruction events. Was hoping they added this into the remaster. Game sucks for me without it wish I could get my money back

    -They actually removed the wheel support they had for the previous game
    -Graphics are set and non-customizable.

    What would had made this remaster great could have been adding VR, more graphics settings for the enthusiast, porting the whole game with support for wheel, creating new content or allowing the game to be modded. If you have it on PS3 don't buy it, if you don't and don't own a wheel you should buy it.    … Expand

    I love arcade racing action but I was really shocked about this bad remaster. On PS4 Pro it still looks like a PS3 game, it completely feels like a PS3 game ... just the 60 FPS are nice, but related to the poor graphics it is nothing special about this. 4K optimization looks really bad for what could be possible, HDR is missing at all.

One of the very few racing games I have sold instantly.

    If you like such a type of racing game than take a look on Dangerous Driving or Hot Pursuit Remaster, both still aren’t good games but noticeably better than Burnout Remaster.    … Expand

    Too little remade to justify the price? Perhaps. But we've not had a racing game quite like Burnout Paradise since it debuted. Still essential. [May 2018, p.95]

    Burnout Paradise Remastered is the remastered version of a legendary arcade racing game. Visually, the remaster itself doesn't give you the feeling that you're playing a modern racing game, the game is polished, but it still feels outdated. That being said, it's still fun to play if you liked the original, though now you can play in 4k and 60fps with all DLC included, and with an original banging soundtrack.

    Anyone looking to smash through the game’s 705 shortcuts, billboards and jumps is a true glutton for punishment, but Burnout Paradise was never made to test players’ skills — it was made to be an escape, which is why the poor difficulty curve is so forgivable. It will always be a pleasure to return to the warm sun and speedy shenanigans of strangers in this familiar place, even if just for a few minutes.
