I'd say Paradise having you drive around everywhere is its greatest strength, because it gave the designers a lot of legroom with how each individual car handled. Where Burnout 3 effectively has about 4 of each car (same stats, different coat of paint), every single car in Burnout Paradise looks unique, has unique characteristics and a few even have quirks no other car has. The game effectively gives you infinite time to practise taming a car's oversteer, propensity to spin out, the odd tendency to just handle better at higher speeds. In Burnout 3, getting to drive outworldish fast cars like the US Circuit Racer was a frustrating highlight because you didn't ever get time with the car off the clock, whereas Burnout Paradise makes every new car you get that highlight AND it lets you ease into it at your own pace. The game also checked what car you were driving at any given time and for Races and Road Rage events, it'd give the opponents cars at about the same level, some better some worse, so the range of cars was effectively also a difficulty slider. It gives the game an amazing difficulty curve, and the player a good deal of control over what they'd be up against.

There's a joyful innocence to the Burnout games. Sure, you're endangering other drivers by driving on the wrong side of the road, but nobody really gets hurt when you crash.

If you want ragdolls, the Wipeout games had tons of that poo poo. It was a decent racer, but it had 10 or so minigames where you windsheild cannon your character across the map. Also a demolition derby

I wouldn't want rag doll bodies in crash junction, but i do like in games when you can drive a car directly into a metal pole at 150mph and your driver is launched through the front windshield

Another single player Sleeping Dogs isn't out of the question, or so they said in interviews. I really want another Sleeping Dogs though, it's such a nice game.

FactsAreUseless posted:I'd like it to have better gunplay than Sleeping Dogs. Yeah. I usually don't like open world GTA-style games because I never do the side missions (didn't do them in SD either) but driving around rainy digital Hong Kong at night with HK pop radio on is so sick. That game again with better tech and shooting would be great.

I just got a new rig on Friday, and the second thing I did was install Sleeping Dogs DE and turn everything up all the way and go ride my motorcycle in the rain, and it is even more the best thing than it was.
