Burnout Paradise PC Demo Hits, Contains Entire Game
by Chris Faylor, Feb 05, 2009 8:09am PSTNow available on FileShack is the demo for Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box.
Less of a demo and more of a trial version, the 2.92 GB download actually contains the complete game, allowing players to check out a few cars and the racer's entire open-world setting, complete with the option to upgrade to the full version.
Alongside 120 single player challenges, the demo packs 8-person online multiplayer.
"You can go anywhere in Paradise City and check out everything on offer," developer Criterion previously explained. "Rather than restricting what you can do, we're letting you play through the start of the full game for a limited period."
"There's a limit to just how much you can do and for how long, but we hope you'll agree that there's plenty there to give you glimpse of what the full game has to offer."

I hope I REALLY hope people will buy this, and not pirate the shit out of it. I love Criterion for bringing this to PC, and even with a great demo. They shouldn't be punished for that. Please people, if you like it, buy it. Don't give the Industry another reason to say that PC gamers are only stealing ungrateful fags.

It defaulted everything to medium, ran smooth, so I cranked her up to all max with 4xAA, and wow, just WOW. This has to be one of the best ports ever to grace the PC. Controls are good, Graphics are amazingly smooth. Major props to Criterion, wish more studios did this.

This is the ultimate version of Burnout P, if you have it for the 360 or ps3 you might as well head to you eb and trade it in.
The graphics are insane and all the added bonuses, I could just sit there and rotate the camera and look at the graphics of the car and pimp normal mapping and details in the road.
This is a fantastic racer for you PC go and buy it http://www.direct2drive.com/2/7499/product/Buy-Burnout-Paradise:-The-Ultimate-Box-Download you really can’t go wrong.

* oh ya to find the graphic setting just hit the start button or esc and then hit f1 or the left bumper on the controller till you get to the page. At first I was like where the hell is it? *

I know they've made some changes though, and want to try this, but I need to buy a 360 controller for the PC first.
