Burnout Paradise has been announced!

The latest in the best-selling Burnout racing series has been announced, after publisher EA revealed it would be out this winter for PS3 and Xbox 360.

Instant accessibility will be reinforced by innovative on-line capabilities which will see Burnout Paradise smash racing conventions.’’
