Burnout Paradise : Legendary Cars

[YeOldeTDUMan]

Looks like the Criterion have been watching lots of 80s tv and films and have made cars that are a homage to famous vehciles !

 

All the cars have a special feature from hitting L3 !!!!!

 

Also supposedly the new island might be released soon too

 

So we have a:

 

Jansen 88 Special - BTTF DeLorean (L3 makes it hover)

 

Hunter Manhatten - Ecto 1

 

Carson Nighthawk - K.I.T.T.

 

Cavalry Bootlegger - General Lee ... it's available in Orange too (L3 sounds the horn !!!!!)

 

definitely going to be getting these !

I bought this game in about November I think and have barely played it I'm ashamed to say. Is there any word on pricing yet?

[TimBud]

The map upgrade (Big Surf Island) will be free, but the cars you'll have to purchase. I reckon anywhere from 400-800 msp for them.

[YeOldeTDUMan]

there's another 2 car packs coming too according to the Criterion site

 

Boost Pack - 2 cars with heavy boost ... 1st is a modded version of the 'hot rod' with a HUGE engine and exhaust ... 2nd car is secret at the moment

 

Toy Cars - 9 of the burnout cars in silly 'cartoon' proportions

[Shy Guy]

I'm gonna get the Jansen 88 and General Lee for sure, the other 2 I might get later

[ShadowGT]

Are they out yet? i'm getting all 4.

[Latetzki]

That "KITT" looks so lame.

[ShadowGT]

The KITT car is the fastest accelerating car in the game now.

[TimBud]

Love this pack! The Jensen 88 is so cool hovering

 

The game update is pretty cool too and apparently we can restart challenges now? Only 6 left before I get my Elite license :)

[Shy Guy]

I bought these but I have to do the damn 1.7 update :(
