Burnout Paradise PC Preview

Hell, yeah! Boys and girls, we're finally home! Touchdown! End of game! Ownage! "Home, but where?" Well, you may ask that, and here's your answer - "Take me down to the paradise city. Where the grass is green. And the girls are pretty. Take me home" Got that? No? OK...
Burnout Paradise PC

Formerly known as Burnout 5, Burnout Paradise is THE GAME we've been waiting for ages to arrive on the PC. Now, North America just got it, and Europe should also get it this weekend. Damn, it's good to have friends flying to the US pretty often! The idea is that I just got the game earlier today, and PlayerzBlog will be one of the first to review the PC version of Burnout Paradise. No, this is not a review, but here's what you should expect:

- Awesome graphics, while system requirements remain decent
- Incredible soundtrack(featuring Guns N'Roses, Twisted Sister, Faith No More, Avril Lavigne, and many others)
- The ability to play the game across multiple monitors to enhance widescreen playing (not for me, sorry, but sounds great, at least in theory)
- Reliability (no crashes today, but I'll tell you more in the review)
- Insane online action (only 8 players in the whole Paradise City per game, it seems, but you won't get bored)
- 4 bikes and 75 cars
- Some smart in-game advertising (watch out for those EVGA roadside advertisements!)

That's it for now, but I must tell you one thing - Burnout Paradise should be the ultimate proof that all those involved in the Need for Speed: Undercover failure game should resign, NOW. Stay close to us, by the end of the week, we'll give you our extensive Burnout Paradise PC review!
