Cops and Robbers

Criterion Games have released a few pictures of the future DLC which they are calling "Cops and Robbers Pack".

Criterion Games say this will bring the thrills and spills of cops and robbers car chases to Paradise City.

There are no further details of how the gameplay will work, and this will probably be the last DLC to be released, so don't expect to see it anytime soon. Here are the pictures:

U-Turn on Re-Starts!

A little while ago when the PC demo of Burnout Paradise was announced we saw that the PC version of BP has restarts, a feature that was not included in the console version..... until now! (or soon, the 5th of Feb to be exact)

Criterion Games have today announced that restarts are coming to consoles in a FREE update on the 5th of February.

"...this overhaul to the game includes the introduction of our all-new in-game website and awesome in-game store.  We've also worked on changes to game modes, visuals, the entire vehicle dynamics system.  Oh, and we've added a restart !"
 

The 5th of February also sees the release of the Party Pack swiftly followed by Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box on the 6th of February.
