No stuttering, graphical glitches or other problems.

Moreover, implementation has been built right things in the PC are obtained in the XBox360 and PS3 bekommt.Zum only via the Download Example Although the Motorräder.Diese make such a good figure but more on that later.

The City:

Paradise City is very nice to look at.
Many details and normal traffic to ensure a credible environment.

Also one finds
Stations through which you can drive to replenish its Boost.
Lacquering shops to change the paint
Junkyards to switch to the vehicle
and workshops to repair the car.

If you drive in the middle of a race Trough eg a workshop, so you will also be repaired there.
The same applies to the Tankstelle.So can be very easily fill the nitro.

The race modes:

Of which there are many.
It wait a total of 120 events from different categories, tons of fences and billboards that may be destroyed, and 50 super jumps, waiting to be discovered there.

To accept a race you just drive to one of the many intersections in Paradise City.
Once there is briefly displayed to which race is.
If you want to do it, simply press the accelerator and brake at the same time and you're there.
If you want to cancel a race, so it is enough just to stand still.
After about 5 seconds then applies the race beendet.So omitted menu clicking but, very practical.

No matter what kind of race you do, you always have the whole city.
No invisible walls or huge arrows like a NFS disturb.
Instead, the turn signal is used which indicates the direction of getting close to an intersection.
Partly to Spät.Aber if you know a little in the big city to get clear it.

When chasing a Gengner on the wall within a race, so this Spektakuler is staged.
One sees dissolves into its component parts in a tracking shot as the other car.
After the sequence you find yourself safe on the track again.
One will always sat that one kann.Das go directly is very good!

Stunt Race:
As the name suggests this is about Stunts.Überschläge, spins and crashes give points.

Marked Man:
You are about to be wrecked the Opfer.Finde a way from A to B without.
The placement does not Rolle.Hier is it just for survival.
The prosecutors have strongly armored vehicles and are therefore unlikely to be eliminated.

Road Rage:
Destroy in a fixed period of a minimum number of enemies before you scrap.
It is the whole city to Verfügung.Es is almost no matter where you long drives, after a short time
the opponent must again at dir.Dadurch not be on the map achten.Sehr good!

Run:
As the name suggests but a normal Rennen.Natürlich also fly here the scraps.

Burning Route:
Here you're alone on the Strecke.Von A to B.
The only opponent is the Zeit.Finde the best way to be successful.

Unfortunately, the known crash intersections are no longer present.
Instead, there is now the "Showtime"
Which can be at any time by pressing a button Activate.
Once you do that, the car catch on to every überschlagen.Für taken car gets you Boost,
This is then used to make "hop" around the car.
This is extremely unrealistic but the more you lustiger.Wenn it makes good can be several kilometers to watch how the
Major wreck the roads moving.

The vehicles:

A total of 75 vehicles in three categories (Crash / Stunt / Speed) can be added to the scrap yards in Paradise City, where they stand out as high-speed fun Bringer available.
In order to get new vehicles must be either his racing license upgrade (This is done by victories)
or you get the message that a new car has been spotted.
Once you see it you have to scrap it when cruising only.
Then it will be delivered the next junkyard.

Crash:
Here particularly strong Autos.Am are best suited to the enemy to destroy.

Stunt:
These vehicles are well to perform to flashovers, rollers or other fast maneuvers.

Speed:
The fastest cars but almost nothing endure.

For every taste.
Musclecar, Japanese cars or Rennboliden.Alle Fahreuge make a very good impression and also differ from Handling.Es are no licensed vehicles but we recognize that model served as a model.

The motorcycles even have their own Events is bekommen.Aber unfortunate event of a crash no animation starts.
Instead, you find yourself directly in the street wieder.Aber yet they are a nice change.

The sound:

Super! A lot of bass, beautiful engines sounds and great music.
You can also choose between stereo and 5.1.
The latter is very genial.Man hear the sound from the rear left opponents are flying around right front sheet metal parts.
The only thing going for the eggs is "DJ Atomica" A female, constantly recurring voice.

The Menu:

There is Minuspunkte.Es is very confusing.
Until I found the settings to my controller (Logitech Rumblepad 2) adjust,
Several minutes passed.

The Control:

First found and set, you can not meckern.Geht slightly out of hand.

My Conclusion:
Action Action Action.Das you get in Burnout Paradise.
Who wants to have a simulation that should make a giant circle around the game.
Who Arcade Racing its best studied, which must here zugreifen.Es gives racing game at the moment no better than arcade burnout.

Small deductions there because of the DJ suppression ** e ... um I mean about DJ Atomica,
the late signs of direction indicator
and because you rumfährt partly too much to eg. to move his car for the next race or repair.

From me there is 94%
