BURNOUT PARADISE BOOST SPECIALS PACK
In 2009 we're taking vehicles to new places in Burnout Paradise.
With the Legendary Cars Pack we're bringing you cars you've only dreamed of driving in Paradise City.
The Toy Cars Pack adds the kind of fun you thought we'd never dare give you.
Now, the Boost Specials Pack takes you to levels of performance that will blow your mind.
This pack will be available for purchase in 2009 and brings you 2 amazing machines, the likes of which you've never driven before.
The first is the Carson Extreme Hotrod.
It's the fastest car in Paradise City - a stripped down, ultra low, overpowered straight line monster.
It has its roots in American Rat Rod culture - it's a wildly exaggerated Hot Rod, based on a '20s Roadster.
It also has a new vehicle dynamics system, which means that it handles more intuitively and drifts more realistically than any other car.
And it has blue exhaust flames - this means it has a totally different boosting system to those that you're familiar with.
The second car is a closely-guarded secret. We'll be revealing details of this in the New Year.
Keep checking our news blog and Crash TV video podcast for more announcements on this pack soon.
THE BIG SURF ISLAND PACK
We haven’t released anything new on this awesome, premium downloadable content since way back in May, so it’s high time we gave you a little update.
For all the latest info, we’d recommend you check out the very latest Crash TV. It’s your chance to hear all the latest news on the island direct from its creators.
This first shot shows your arrival point on the island. From here, you can make out the awesome cylindrical tower referred to in this Crash TV Episode 15. With the right car, it’s possible to drift all the way to the top of this tower and back again. But you’re unlikely to drive down, because this location is all about massive jumps. For a while, we considered naming it Big Air Island!
The building to the right is the hotel we named after one of our die-hard fans. DBC9MX earned the right name the hotel after winning the Downtown Showtime Showdown competition and chose to name it after his son – Taylor J. You check out the footage in Crash TV for a better look at Taylor J Towers.
This second shot is the first time we’ve shown you the view looking back down from the island towards the bridge and mainland Paradise City. Our mantra is ‘if you can see it, you can drive it’ – which means that even the bridge to the city features multiple levels and massive jumps.
The construction yard in the foreground is loaded with gameplay and the scaffold at the top features in one of the island’s most memorable pieces of gameplay. Everywhere on the island is like this.
This third image is the first look at the other side of the island, featuring the palm trees that give it a distinctly tropical flavour. The unusual shape of the lighthouse, and the massive ramp in front of it are more tell-tale signs that the geometry is more than just scenery.
And finally, here’s our favourite shot.
This shows the kind of action the island is built for. The scaffold towers in the construction yard can be climbed and all the hoops can be jumped. If you want a taste of what the island is all about, head for the airfield, quarry or beach in Burnout Paradise right now and imagine an area the size of Downtown dedicated to that kind of gameplay. The car featured here is the Dust Storm. It will be made available at the same time as the island.
We’d mentioned in a previous podcast that this would be free content, but we can now confirm that it will be premium paid-for content.
Here’s why. We never expected to create anything this ambitious for the island, but as it progressed we got more and more excited about what it could become. (In fact, that’s the story of all our Downloadable Content.)
Big Surf is the culmination of everything we learned creating Paradise City, and we want it to bring you a truly spectacular new experience – the highlight of a year of incredible premium content. Burnout already delivers incredible value for money – literally hundreds of hours of gameplay with your original disk or PSN purchase, plus more with the free Cagney Pack and free Burnout Paradise Bikes.
We want Burnout Paradise players to experience the greatest support ever seen in a console game. We’re transforming not just Burnout Paradise, but the whole Burnout franchise through DLC, and we appreciate the support we know you guys will give us for our paid content. We think it’s worth it.
Next week, we’ll bring you the first of our “Paradise City Boroughs” guides - Downtown Paradise. We’ll cover the whole of Paradise City borough-by-borough in some detail, culminating in a big reveal of the island in the new year.
