That's right, the next one. As in the one after the flying cars, the toy cars and the not-actually-cars. Criterion just keeps on stuffing more content into its open-world racer, with the latest vehicular addition taking the form of the Carson Extreme Hotrod, a "stripped down, ultra low, overpowered straight line monster." You'll find it, along with another impossibly fast hunk of metal, in 2009's "Paradise Boost Specials Pack."
According to the developers, both vrooooooms are designed to "re-imagine Burnout Boost." And we doubt they're imagining it any slower. Here we come, walls!

I am using common sense. They said they would be bringing planes to Burnout after bikes, and both would be free. So, why is it not common sense to wonder what happened there? Maybe they never explicitly said "we PROMISE to bring planes..." but they did say it was coming.

What a great game. Really this is one of the best games this generation and it keeps getting better with all the updates.

I would pay upwards of $20 for a traditional crash party mode ala Burnout 3.

Seriously!? Is criterion ever going to release a crash mode for this game? I really cant believe they took that mode out. It was my favorite thing about the past installations.

I loved the Burnout series up until Takedown. I had been looking forward to Paradise but demo kinda rubbed the wrong way. I was so much into the open world.
But now I feel SO bad. Criterion has put the best philosophy forward regarding DLC. Its got class and quality. I want to so badly buy their game just for the sake of giving them money.
*sigh* I don't know what to do. Maybe I'll just make a donation...

I agree. Something that I did a lot in the past games was start my race over and over mid race until I got it right. Now if I mess up or wreck I have to drive all the way back to the beginning of the race. Its a major KillJoy!!!!

Granted, I haven't played any of the other Burnout games nearly as much as I've played this one, and in fact, this is the first one I've ever actually owned. I wish they would have the old crash mode myself, and can't believe they haven't yet, but my guess is that they will eventually.
As far as the retry option goes, WTF happened? They even said they were going to add it on the "Criterion Games News" that pops up when you boot up the game. I had to try the UberScholl Burning Route somewhere around 422,168 times before I made it to the damn ranch. Of course I can't drive, but still driving back to the city every time sucked.
