Any idea when? I really want this game on my HDD.
According to IGN Xbox 360, there won't be an Ultimate Box edition for X360 and PS3. I thought they announced a while ago that they were.
Also, they said the Party Pack is free. I thought this was Premium content? (Or just the cars are?)

I just read the PR too... it really does look that way:
Though obviously it's being released as DLC.

Not actually that important

Black 2 as far as I know it's been strongly suggested, they let something slip about it iirc.
Edit: Wait, so everything's going to be FREE? :O
Dash Kappei said:
No. IGN is quite confused.
Party Pack is paid downloadable content which will be released for the PS3/360 via PSN/XBL.
Ultimate Box is a retail product with Burnout Paradise + Party Pack, and will only be released for the PC only in North America, and PC/PS3/360 outside of North America.
I just noticed that Criterion's website says they're announcing more Premium DLC today. It's listed at the very bottom of the coming soon section.

Criterion love them some Sony, are indifferent towards Microsoft, and probably hate Nintendo.

Didn't see this posted. Looks like it's only going to be £25, as well:

I keed!
more or less yeah :lol
so I have a problem with the "complete your 10th timed challenge" trophy, I've already completed over 20 timed challenges using cars/bikes but never got the trophy, I've read it's some kind of glitch and I need to delete my save and redo the timed challenges using only cars... any chance the next patch would fix this so I don't have to mess with the saves?
and appart from that, will the PC version be compatible with the 360 pad?

I never had this bug. Just make sure you completed 10 timed trophies with cars.
You won't regret it. It's so convenient to just have it there, and the loading times are a bit shorter.Dante said:

I've already achieved 15 with cars, seems like it happens when your first timed challenge is completed with a bike...
edit: I just read the only workaround for this is to backup your save, delete it from the HDD and start a new game, then complete 10 timed challenges ONLY WITH CARS.

will gently cradle you as time slowly ticks away.
Speaking of trophies, I got the Platinum last night. My first.

It is confirmed by Jim himself. Although the loads on retail versions are so good it's hard to let my hard copy go.DoctorWho said:
Hehe, no problem. T'was fun!Lince said:thanks a lot dkwhip for helping me out with the "complete 10 timed challenges" trophy... I had to backup my save and start from scratch using only cars to achieve it (default car sucks monkey balls btw), now I restored my save and all it's good again

Nah, it'll be patched free to everyone, no idea when though.Threi said:

Just a note for you guys who want to go PSN: there is no place to enter codes for the bonus cars so if you can't part with that GameSpot car, maybe you should hold on to it.

Great move, cutting the price before the DLC becomes available.
I never heard of it, but I doubt that will deter many potential buyers. What's that anyway?
February 5.

Nice, now that they fixed the no restart bug, I'll finally buy the game. I actually had it pre-paid before launch but then canceled it when I saw that the restart was broken in the demo. I rented it before and played it to the point where restarts were needed then sent it back.
Looking forward to being able to finish a race without 7 minutes of driving back to the start point if I fail the first time.

I only had this problem right near the end when I found all 400 gates and all jumps.DoctorWho said:

As someone said in this thread, Black 2 seems possible, but they really should be working on a Road Rash revival. The Burnout Bikes are awesome, all they need is the ability to beat the crap out of opponents with a tire iron/billy club/can of mace/cattle prod/chain link/whatever, all of the songs from the 3D0 classic (Rusty Cage and that one Swervedriver song is a start, now the others need to be in there) with some more Soundgarden and Therapy?, and some painful bail animations for the rider. Then, and only then, will EA have my $60.bridegur said:

Not everyone is on the PS3, and the 360 version has no such option.McLovin said:
They've denied they are working on Black 2, but I don't quite buy it.bridegur said:
Given that what was Black Box who did Need for Speed, it wouldn't be surprising for EA to toss that over to Criterion.
