Burnout Paradise Demo Now Available

2007 December 13 - Welcome to Paradise! EA today released a fully explorable slice of the award-winning racing game, Burnout Paradise. Available now at the PLAYSTATIONSTORE and XBOX LIVE MARKETPLACE, the downloadable demo will allow players to experience a piece of Paradise City before the game hits retail stores in North America on January 22, 2008.

Discover jumps, billboards and smashable targets all over Motor City, Big Surf Beach and Ocean View in search of the fastest Burnout Route in the Hunter Cavalry car. Also, attempt your shot at a race and check out the all-new Stunt Run mode. If you're online, invite up to three friends into your game and connect with them instantly using the EasyDrive online system. Once online, players can work cooperatively to complete three FreeBurn challenges or simply smash each other up and grab their Burnout Mugshots with the PLAYSTATIONEye and Xbox LIVE Vision cameras.

The development team at Criterion pushes the boundaries to make each Burnout game stands on its own – reinventing the franchise with every iteration. The Paradise experience is all about freedom and exploration. The game has been designed to embrace speed, freedom, social online play and spectacular crashing, but now with all new modes, a completely open world and events at every intersection.

So make action your middle name and take to the streets of Paradise City.
