Your ride awaits in Burnout Paradise...

Burnout Paradise has just been released on the Xbox 360 plus PS3 and already a couple of hackers thought it might be a nice idea to rip it and make it available for download. Hope you got the legit thing, as you'll surely spoil a neat experience, specially if you've played the previous installments. How could a real gamer hack its way into this beautiful
title?

Where's the game's box opening fascination? The smell of the booklet? The tough time you're having trying to rip that plastic apart or the tough time I usually have when trying to get the DVD/CD/Blu-ray out... This is also part of the gaming experience, but let's put that aside and return to the beauty we know as Burnout Paradise. After releasing several major console hits, under the Burnout brand, EA decided to go online and take us all with them.

Paradise is practically a MMO driving/crashing game, if you want, remind me a bit of Test Drive Unlimited, but with a little bit of extra punch. In case you need more details, I had the honor of doing a preview on this beauty, being fascinating by its lag-free gameplay and how much fun you can have in Paradise. Getting online is just one button press away and there were tons of gamers ready to rock, roll and crash, even when the demo was freshly released. Imagine what's going on right now, on these servers...

Can't wait to see your picture taken with the aid of the Xbox Live Vision camera when I crash your fin red-colored ride. What's your take on the game? Are you disappointed or happy with EA's decision of going online? Feel free to comment below and don't forget to check out the game's full list of Xbox 360 achievements and this cool trailer.

*Note: Softpedia.com doesn't support and encourage piracy, modding consoles and other such illegal acts, that spoil the fun of gaming.

"modding consoles and other such illegal acts"
You consider modding a console an illegal act. Wow.
You might wanna reword that.
