So as all Burnout Paradise drivers will know, Criterion have announced and released many free game updates, adding in more and more content with every update. So far we've had:
- Cagney, the first major update which added Online Stunt Run, Marked Man and Road Rage, two new cars and 70 new challegnes.
- Burnout Bikes, which added Motorcycles into a Burnout game for the first time ever. Other major changes within this update included a Day/Night cycle, Dynamic weather, Paradise Awards and 70 all-new Bike Freeburn challenges.
- Playstation Trophies added Burnout Paradise Trophies to PS3 owners.
But 2008 was just so boring compared to what Criterion have announced for 2009:
Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box
Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box is the normal Burnout Paradise with all of the current updates implemented in game right away (including Burnout Party, coming soon in Feb 2009), which is available for PS3 and Xbox 360 owners, and for the first time, PC owners. (Must have if you haven't got the game btw :>) The Ultimate Box is released in Februrary 2009.
Burnout Party
Coming in February 2009, Burnout Party isn't really an online mode. Instead, grab 7 mates and gather round your console and play various mini-games with each other!! There are extra Trophies and Achievements in this pack. To get this pack, gamers must purchase Burnout Party.
Legendary Cars
A thread has been made on BF2s about this already, but this looks great. 4 new cars are being implemented into the game (possibly at a cost). The car that has been shown is the "Jansen 88 Special", which appears to hover!! No confirmed release date as of yet.
Toy Cars
Time to go all Micro Machines in Paradise!! The Carson GT Concept P12, the Krieger Racing WTR, the Hunter Takedown 4x4 and the Hunter Manhattan are all featured in the image, but another 4 all-new cars are being included too, bringing the total number of Toy Cars to 9!! I'm not sure how its going to look in-game, but looks very interesting!! This is available to buy later in 2009.
Boost Specials
The Island
A new expansion to Paradise City!! If you can see it; you can drive it! Literally. Criterion are talking about how you can drift around the outside of buildings and then jump off them, providing the biggest jumps in the game so far!!! This was originally announced in May 08, but is expected to be released in 2009.
and also...
Burnout Paradise Premium Pack, which will be announced on December 5th
Ahhh, I love Criterion =]

More details within the New Year.Criterion wrote:
This pack will be available for purchase in 2009 and brings you 2 amazing machines, the likes of which you've never driven before.
The first is the Carson Extreme Hotrod.
It's the fastest car in Paradise City - a stripped down, ultra low, overpowered straight line monster.
It has its roots in American Rat Rod culture - it's a wildly exaggerated Hot Rod, based on a '20s Roadster.
It also has a new vehicle dynamics system, which means that it handles more intuitively and drifts more realistically than any other car.
And it has blue exhaust flames - this means it has a totally different boosting system to those that you're familiar with.
