Burnout Paradise The Ultimate Box

According to Alex Ward, creative director of the game at developer Criterion Games, this game is a “complete reinvention” of the Burnout series. He also said “To create truly next-generation gameplay, we needed to create a truly next-generation game, from the ground up”. The game is set in an open-world environment, and still retains the 60 frames-per-second frame rate that most Burnout games have been able to utilize. Initially day and night cycles were not included in the game but a software update entitled “Davis” added this element to the game. Records will now be kept on players’ drivers licenses and there will be statistics such as fastest time and biggest crash for every street in the game.
