Criterion Games has just made available Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box for the masses, making a great game even better by releasing it in a special edition box that not only comes with the award-winning Burnout Paradise game, it is also accompanied by the previously-released Burnout Paradise Cagney and Burnout Paradise Bikes content updates, in addition to totally new Burnout Paradise Party content. Burnout Paradise Party, being the latest software addition that has not yet been seen before, is an offline multiplayer mode specially concocted to enable up to eight friends to “pass-the-pad” in dozens of Burnout challenges. Would be nicer if this feature was extended for online play, since it would be pretty hard to find seven other friends to hop over these days when (nearly) everything can be done virtually. Those who already own Burnout Paradise can always download Burnout Paradise Party separately after forking out a certain amount for it. Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box will be out next February on the PS3 and Xbox 360 platforms as well as the PC.
