Wow Criterion is really on a roll with these Burnout Paradise DLC packs. First the Legendary Cars pack, then the Toy Cars pack, now the Boost Specials Collection pack.
Featured in the Boost Specials Collection pack are two cars; the Hawker Mech and Carson Extreme Hotrod.
Priced at 400 Microsoft Points, or 5 bucks, for both cars or 240 Microsoft Points ($3) seperately, the Boost Specials Collection will be available this Thursday on both the PSN and Xbox Live Marketplace.
Criterion Games’ Island Pete has recently announced via his Twitter that the Legendary Cars and Toy Cars DLC packs will finally be hitting the PC thanks to Steam’s digital distribution service.
Having already been released for the console versions of the game, PC owners have been pretty much left in the dark until now.
While there is no official release date for the DLC on the PC, it’s at least good to know that it’s coming.
Criterion has recently uploaded videos to YouTube that showcase each car from the upcoming Legendary Cars pack, for Burnout Paradise, in all of their individual glory.
These videos give you a really look at just how true to the originals these remakes stay. My favorite? The Jansen 88 Special based on the DeLorean DMC-12 time machine from Back to the Future. It even floats and leaves flaming skid marks.
Today Criterion Games has announced via Twitter that the Legendary Cars pack, for Burnout Paradise, will be released this Thursday, Februrary 19th.
Available in the forthcoming Legendary Cars pack is the Back to the Future inspired Jensen 88, seen above, along with a car based on the Ghost Busters’ mobile, KITT, and the General Lee from he Dukes of Hazzard. Sounds cool? Only a few more days to wait for this blast from the past.
Oh and if you PC gamers were wondering, this announcement is for the console version of Burnout Paradise only, sorry.
