Marking the franchise's first appearance on PCs, Criterion Games today announced that it will be porting Burnout Paradise to the platform. The open-world racing game was originally released for Xbox 360 and PlayStation 3.

The PC version of Burnout Paradise will include unspecified expanded multiplayer support, improved online features, and "community driven content". No additional details, such as a release date, were announced, but more information is expected to be revealed later today.

Quickly! Someone contact Valve and get them on board with Criterion! I hate the way copy protection is heading and I feel like Steam may be our only hope.
