 In previous "Burnout" games, "Crash Mode", was a dedicated mode in which players were given multiple scenarios in which to cause the biggest crash.In "Burnout Paradise", "Crash Mode", now called "Showtime", can be initiated at any time and place in the game.Showtime does differ from the previous incarnation of Crash Mode being that instead of crashing into a busy intersection and watching a crash play out, Showtime has you bounce the vehicle around for as long as possible to gain points.
