While it looks like we'll have to wait until March to get the full version of Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box, you can get your hands on the brand new demo version today - just to remind yourself of what you're looking forward to.

Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box expands on last year's release, and also includes the previously-released Cagney and Paradise Bikes free downloadable content updates and a copy of the shiny new Party Pack - normally a premium download - is thrown in, as well!

...if you're a console gamer and already have the original game, head on over to the Xbox Live Marketplace or PlayStation Network and pick up your own copy of the Party Pack to get in on the fun!


For those of you who may not know, the Burnout Paradise Party Pack (and the new Ultimate Box) updates the original game to also include offline multiplayer, where gamers can compete in different skill, stunt and speed events. It's been designed for up to eight players to "pass-the-pad" through an assortment of turn-based, quick-fire challenges.

Pretty exciting, huh! The PC version of the game isn't set to arrive in Australia for a little while, but the new, 3GB demo should tide you over until then - or, if you need more racing action, maybe it's time to look at that new console you always wanted...?
