This is not the game I was expecting and I mean that in a good way as it is just like old school crash mode which is great. Acting like children over a ten dollar game is kind of ridiculous, and this game would be the quickest way to a new full-on Burnout game for us all to play. That is if the complaints stop and people buy it and have some fun. Only complaint, and this is pretty serious, is the lack of custom soundtracks. I don’t know why it’s not there but that is a serious oversight for a game like this and one more developers need to rectify on their PSN releases. As fun as this game is it would be much more so if I could listen to my own music. Hopefully you folks at Criterion will rectify this problem ASAP.

Oh, and add more local co-op to your games. I have a wife and kids, and we all enjoy some couch competition, especially racing. Criterion makes the most fun racing games that I can’t play with my family in competition which is criminal!

I missed crash modes in paradise city. I had burnout takedown, revenge, dominator, legends, & paradise. When i bought this game I saw screenshots, and knew what to expect. It’s about crashing, not racing. The game has a great presentation. I love the music when the special vehicles come out. Autolog and the weather changes are a nice touch.
I do agree with marlyt, don’t make this thing half price next month. Or, eventually I’ll stop buying new releases in the ps store.

Played the demo and deleted it shortly afterward. Not my cup of tea. Looks like a game that would make more sense to have on a cell phone.

Ok, Dan.

I tried the demo and must say I likey very much. When I rated the demo in store it was at 4.63 with 64 votes so obviously those who try it before judging it, actually enjoy it. WTF is a “real” game anyway? I don’t know but I’m buying this one in just a minute. I agree with some others that 10 bucks is a bit steep but it seems like it could be never ending and woth the price tag. We shall see my friend. BTW my history with Critereon goes back all the way to Burnout Paradise (way back then) and yes it’s an excellent racer. I actually forgot you all did NFS Hot Pursuit but that was wicked as well. What is it about some game studios that everything they touch is gold? What is it Dan???Tell Me NOW!!!!! Good evening.

PS Please don’t price drop this to 5 dollars next month and make me regret spending 10. It hurts when PSN devs do that garbage.

You have no idea how much I loved Burnout Paradise! At one point, I ruled EVERY SINGLE road rule for time. I can tell you that I was very proud of myself on that day! My favorite car was the Nighthawk.

Criterion Games Rocks!

$9.99 is too much for this, this game seems more like a mini-game. $4.99-$7.99 is more realistic.

I was kind of hoping when i saw this post it was going to be done in the Paradise game engine… this looks like that old racing game in the arcade where there were four steering wheels and the spun indefinitely as you raced around a small track mixed with crazy Taxi interesting but after a game like Paradise or even burnout 3 this is lackluster :(

some people are so moronic… they judge something without even trying it out… just because its not a full-fledged Burnout game, they dismiss it like everything else in their sad, little lives… give it a try… people worked hard on this stuff… and you wonder why noone gives much effort to new IPs or takes on existing franchises…

personally, i think the devs over at Criterion deserve a thumbs up and keep doing a great job… maybe you guys should be in charge of a new Destruction Derby title… that would make my day… if it were a mash-up of the old Destruction Derbies with Test Drive:Eve of Destruction career mode, i’d buy that on day one….

@39 I have played all Burnout games and Burnout Crash is nothing like them.. you can see it by the screenshots here.. its a casual game that should’ve been on the iPhone for free/$0.99 or for free on a flash website. Not worth $10. not even for a blue lobster
