For the first time Burnout is getting motorbikes!

Silver Mirror | April 23, 2008 | News | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 
Looking forward to that update about to be released in less then twelve hours for Burnout Paradise? Well then you're going to love this: Criterion announced their next update (due in August) will include Motorbikes! This is a first for the series and will come with new game modes and locations to suit these metal demons, as well as the ability to play your favourite tracks at night
This is the biggest news in Burnout history!

For the first time, we'll let you loose in a Burnout game on motorbikes!

And because we're dedicated to bringing you game-changing new Burnout Paradise content all year, bikes will feature their own game modes, challenges and even some new locations tailored to fit their unique performance and handing characteristics.

The other big news relating to bikes is that we've introduced night-time to Burnout Paradise for the first time.

We wanted to clear the traffic out a little to give you the chance to learn how to ride in safety, and we've always wanted to cruise the streets of Paradise City with incredible night-time visuals.

We expect to ship bikes as part of our Davis software update, due for release sometime in August.

    Wow. Gotta give the guys behind Burnout Paradise props, they really are going all out with this game. I'm definitely going to buy it over the Summer.

    More and more, Criterion seems to be trying to make me not want to get Midnight Club: Los Angeles. But it's just not working.

    I cannot believe the amount of content they're adding to this game, and all in the form of free updates. The game is incredible as it is, but Criterion is just losing their minds now. They really got a winner.

    I imagine motorbikes will be a bit faster than cars, but with most having poorer turning and can't take much damage >_>

    Pretty good freebie update I should get this game at some point >_>

        lmao that would make it kinda awkward and unbalanced to play. i wonder if youll fly off it if you hit something and get smashed to bits by oncoming cars splatting your guts all over windsheilds....sorry, got too detailed lol.
