I've just noticed this on xbl and above about the update:

 

The first in a series of game-changing updates is here for all Burnout Paradise owners; and this one's free of charge.

 

Does this mean we are going to be charged for the other updates?? If so and this being an EA game they will probably up the price on the next packs to cover this free one.

I'm buying this game this afternoon, worth it?
