In fact, the nicest compliment I can give to this version of the game is that it looks how you remember it looking back in 2008.īoot up the original via Xbox One backwards compatibility, though, and you’ll see that in fact some work has been done getting it running smoothly and with high resolution textures. It’s not a remake of the game, it’s a tarted up version of the original game running natively on PS4 and Xbox One, and it’s akin to the PC version, only with textures that can be displayed at 4K, all while running at a frighteningly fast 60fps. It’s still cool, it’s still amazing.īut this is basically what I wanted from a remaster.


Whether you remember everything about it or not, you’ll remember the “bass, snare, bass snare” intro from Guns ‘N’ Roses’ Paradise City that opens the game, and that might actually be enough. It’s difficult to really think about what people wanted from a current-gen re-release of Burnout Paradise.
