Burnout Paradise was met with very positive reviews. Aggregating review websites GameRankings and Metacritic gave the Xbox 360 version 88.36% and 88/100 and the PlayStation 3 version 87.89% and 87/100

Reviewers praised the game's open world, stating "Burnout Paradise is an amazing open-world racing game that stays true to the Burnout legacy", but that the large world may "feel a little daunting at first."New gameplay mechanics such as gas stations and body repair shops were also praised which "mitigate potential frustration when the heat is on."Hyper's Daniel Wilks commends the game for its "great sense of speed and things that go boom". IGN's Chris Roper praised the vehicle unlock system, which gives the player a new vehicle with each license, and also gives the player the opportunity to "take down" certain vehicles, which earns the player a reward if completed. He further lauded the game as "controlled chaos".

While the game was well received, some reviewers were disappointed that there was no option to restart a race or event. Instead the player had to either fail the event, or cancel the race by bringing the vehicle to a stop for a few seconds, and then return to the specific place on the map to try that particular race or event again. Criterion responded to this criticism by stating that they don't feel that this is a problem and that adding a "retry" option would introduce loading screens, which they "hate with a passion" Despite this, the option to restart an event was later added to the game via a free software update. EuroGamer found DJ Atomika, the game's guide, to be "instantly dislikeable".
