When Codemasters revealed that their next racing title would focus on tarmac action, I was very eager to see what they would come up with.

This is a review I should’ve written a long time ago, but now that a few things are out of the way I can finally sit down and tell you my thoughts about Burnout Paradise. In fact, the additional time I’ve spent with the game has actually changed a few perspectives I had on […]
