    Burnout Paradise PC

    I see BP for the PC is released today. Anyone planning on getting it? I'm d/ling the demo right now (apparently it's a time limited version of the full game).

    It was time limited on the xbox 360 as well, but still gives you a fairly good insight into what the full game is about. It would be a crime to play it on keyboard so make sure you use a 360 pad when / if you get the full game.

    Seriously? Only 10 mins? That's pathetic. How disappointing. I've yet to try it as I'm at work, so I better make sure I'm all set (eg wheel set up) before I run it.

    Re: Burnout Paradise PC

    Its ok to get an idea of it, but Burnout games have always been fun, its easy to control even with a keyboard, its on my list of "games to buy" anyway , i just know if i go in town today it will cost £35 in my local stores, maybe i'll pay Tesco's a visit later.

    I saw a really good review. I take it this will work well with a G25 wheel?

    Should work, not sure it's the kind of game a wheel really goes with though.

    It worked on the PS3 for me, so I assume it will on PC. I absolutely hated it with wheel tho.
    There's not much room for subtlety in burnout, hold boost button and full left right turns mostly won me everything... hence keyboard control is quite feasible.

    I just tried the demo out and really enjoyed it - I managed about 40 mins though and three races before it kicked me out.

    I downloaded - been a lot of fun soo far.

    Though I couldn't get the 'awesome' multi-monitor features to work correcty / at all, a bit of a disappointment.

    This is a seriously good game. I've wasted hours on it and not got bored. My favourite events are Road Rages
