        I didn’t feel like the open world worked very well for that series. There was Burnout Revenge as well though.

          Wait, you mean to tell me that the other were not open world? I only played Paradise, and it is my favorite racing game precisely because of the open world. I always wanted to try the other ones, thinking that the open world was what defined the series, but now I’m not sure I would like the other games. To each their own ig.

            For the most part the ability to take out your opponents by crashing into them has defined the series. Paradise is the only open-world Burnout game. You’d probably like the Forza Horizon games if you’ve never played those. Not much destruction, but plenty of open world arcade racing shenanigans.

      Oh, hell no, we’re not doing Revenge dirty like that. It may not have been as successful as 3, but rear-ending cars to send them careening into whatever was in front of them was just so satisfying. It kinda felt like playing highway pool.
