Burnout Paradise for Xbox 360, PS3 features a Host of Innovative Features courtesy EA

Quite some time ago, we had reported about EA’s newest game Burnout Paradise from its acclaimed Burnout franchise. Now EA dropped in to announce the special features and innovations that will truly make this game the next-generation of Burnout.


Burnout Paradise will be released on the Sony PlayStation 3 and Microsoft Xbox 360 consoles. Some of the game’s unique features include open world freedom, seamless ‘EasyDrive’ online multiplayer, four unique single-player events and hundreds of online Freeburn challenges.

Burnout Paradise takes full advantage of the PlayStation 3 console’s new DUALSHOCK 3 Wireless Controller with its rumble feature, allowing gamers to feel every bump, scrape, crash and collision.

The Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3 version of Burnout Paradise both have a great feature called Mugshots. This feature allows gamers to click snapshots of themselves and their foes via Xbox LIVE Vision or the PLAYSTATION EYE.

These features will surely throw gamers right into an incredibly vivid High-definition world that pushes the limits of the next-generation consoles like the PS3 and Xbox 360.

According to Alex Ward, Creative Director at EA Criterion Studios, “This is the true beginning of next generation racing. On PLAYSTATION 3 and Xbox 360, we are delivering a game that brings brilliant graphics into HD at 60 frames per second. Burnout Paradise does something that no other Burnout game has ever done - it gives the player full control on how to play the game.”

Innovative Features of Burnout Paradise in detail:

*True Open World Freedom - The entire city will be available from the outset, giving players the freedom to explore this immersive world known as Paradise City. Experience open world driving Burnout style as the action begins with you, but it doesn’t have to end.
*EasyDrive Online Social Gaming - See your friends online with the EasyDrive Friends List and connect with them instantly without having to wait or exit your game. Burnout Paradise is revolutionizing the way players jump on and offline, making it as simple and quick as possible.
*Single-player Events - Choose from Race, Marked Man, Road Rage, and Stunt by pulling up to the numerous stoplights in the game to initiate the event. The action isn’t forced any longer, as players have the freedom to start and even end a challenge at their leisure.

“At Criterion, we have a long history of delivering stand-out software on the PlayStation consoles. The entire team is fired up about the opportunity to carry that heritage into the PLAYSTATION 3 generation,” added Ward.
