The devs over at Criterion must be happy, their game was received well, their upcoming DLC is looking good and Burnout Paradise, their newest game, has sold over a million units. Now whether you liked the gameplay changes that were introduced or not, this is definitely good news. Selling a million copies in the gaming world almost guarantees a sequel, and this should give Criterion the chance to smooth over any bumps in their game formula. And, not only did Burnout Paradise sell a million units, but those sales pushed the total for the entire Burnout series to over 15 million pieces of software sold. Congrats Criterion, keep up the good work!

I agree with the above. I still don't like this game, and I've tried it extensively. They've taken an ARCADE game and turned it into just another driving game. All I have now is Takedown and Revenge, as Paradise and the inevitable open-world sequel are going to be sh*t.
No Crash mode... What were they thinking...

I for one, love Burnout Paradise, but then I was never hooked on any of the previous games, kudos to Criterion for developing something new for folks.
I'm disappointed that a lot of previous version players have said they hate it, but sometimes when you develop a new product, it is just that, new!
