Revealed back in November, the Jensen 88 Special is sure an eye catcher. Dude, who needs wheels if you can cruise the Doc Brown and Marty McFly way, right? The Jensen 88 Special is coming to Burnout Paradise (PS3, Xbox 360) some time early next year, as one of the four cars included in the Legendary Cars DLC pack.

Here's a preview of the Jensen 88 Special from Criterion Games. It's only until after the 1:30-mark when they show the hovercar though. Vroooom:

is da bomb! I love paradise and the fact that they really support their game with real DLC and not just cheap rip-off crap packs that should of been included in the first place *cough Need for Speed cough*

I just bought this game and i was wondering if there was anyway to get the older DLC because the only thing listed is the bikes pack.

All DLC currently come as patches/updates to the main game. You can't not have them. As from now though, all DLC will cost (you will have to buy them) so they won't be patches as before, you will have to download them from the PlayStation Store.

...and to be honest, I don't like the layout of the game. Don't get me wrong though. Burnout Paradise has a lot of potential to be better than Need For Speed Most Wanted but for some reason, it is always hard to know where you are going and to take the appropriate actions to steer the car out of harms way in a timely manner. I have played this game for a long time but it gets frustrating to crash when you need to look at the map for something and in a split second, a barrier is in your face. This game has made me so annoyed that I have to lay off of playing it. Although they have gave a ton of free downloadable content, I still think that Need For Speed Most Wanted kicks Burnout Paradise's ass.

This DLC will not be free. Which is fine by me considering the awesome free support this game has had so far.

When you first boot up the game it will download all available patches/DLC at the same time. This includes Bogart, Cagney and Davis (Bikes Pack).

» thanks

Thanks for answering my question. I have the game but i can open it until christmas so thats why i was asking. Also its the 360 version so idk what gtxboyracer was saying about paying for dlc on the psn.

» I kind agree

I haven't played the actual game yet but i have played the demo and the point of view that you have int that great and since the city is full of many other colorful objects it makes it difficult to see the oncoming traffic if you are trying to look at the map.

I have no problem with it. I beat everything in the game pretty easily, save for the last burning routes. Like the ones where you have to use the F1-esque cars. Those are very challenging. The time limit is so low if you crash once you lose, and the cars are so weak if you so much as tap something you crash.

"Great Scott!" xD



This is really going to add a lot to the game, especially to "Back To The Future" fans.



Merry X-Mas QJ :)
