Burnout Paradise Demo Comes Next Week

by Patrick Steen on December 5, 2007 at 7:49 am

Looking at the official website for Burnout Paradise, to hit the Playstation 3 and Xbox360 early next year, we can spy some exciting news. We knew a demo was coming, but it’s nice to see it coming so early.

On Criterion’s official website there is a newly revealed “Countdown to Demo Day” which has 8 days remaining. This would place the demo on Thursday Decemeber 13th. Thursday - a typical Playstation Store update day, and since Burnout Paradise has the PS3 as it’s lead platform it should be coming there first.

Whether the demo will also be on Xbox LIVE is a question I can’t answer. It depends on how vigorous talks between Criterion, Sony and Microsoft have been. Bring on the crashing!

I expect this game to be awesome on both platforms. The Devs have said they have really enjoyed having PS3 as the lead platform (like you say). But Xbox 360 fans need not fear, unlike games porting from 360 to PS3 this game shouldn’t be noticeably different or filled problems. Think “Xbox 360 vs PS3″ versions of COD4 as near exactly the same!

NO! I haven’t seen anything on the demo for Xbox “Marketplace” either!!! ….but I can’t see “Live” going without one around the same time! :D

Just went to the site. If this game turns out anything like the videos, I will absolutely buy this game! …in fact I think after the demo, this game will see a ton of pre-orders afterward. Looks like an absolute blast!!!

The official site clearly states: “Get the playable demo from Dec 13th at the PlayStation® Network, PlayStation® Store and Xbox Live® Marketplace.”
So the 360 demo will be out at the same time.
