Burnout Paradise The Ultimate Box FREE PC trial available for millions...
Burnout Paradise The Ultimate Box will be arriving on PC in Feb 2009.
Like both the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 versions, this product combines the original Burnout Paradise with all the incredible support content we’ve developed so far! That means our Cagney Pack update, the Bikes Pack and the forthcoming Party Pack are all included.
Here’s what you didn’t know - anyone will be able to trial the game for FREE.
When the full game’s released in Feb ’09, we want all our PC players to be sure it runs perfectly on their system, before they commit to buying it. We also love the game and feel confident that if you try it, you’ll want to sign up for more!
But there’s a lot of game to show you!
In Burnout Paradise, you’re free to explore a massive city, loaded with fun things to do and places to go. Pull up at any of the 120 junctions to start one of 5 event types – Burning Route, Marked Man, Stunt Run, Race and Road Rage. See if you can find the beach, quarry, dirt track and airfield playgrounds spread through our five boroughs. The city also morphs seamlessly into an online world anytime you want to hook up with your friends and cruise around beating challenges.
So rather than restricting what you can do, we're letting you play through the start of the full game for a limited period.
That’s right, you can go anywhere in Paradise City and check out everything on offer in the opening stages of the game.

Best games for PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Wii in 2009 - Street Fighter IV, Killzone 2, MadWorld and God of War III
It usually takes two or three years before new consoles hit their stride with a bevy of top AAA rated games. In that time, developers are learning the systems, testing out new ways of doing things and experimenting with gameplay ideas.
And with the Xbox 360, PlayStation 3 and Nintendo Wii reaching that point, 2009 should be an even better time for games than last year. But with all the looking forward, it's the old school-style titles that pique my interest.
And no other game has me as excited as one of the blue bloods of gaming — the "Street Fighter" series. On Feb. 17, the franchise's first sequel in a decade will be released. "Street Fighter IV" brings the popular fighting game back to its roots with a modern twist of polygonal graphics.
Famous fighters such as Ryu, Ken and Chun Li now have a look that rivals Pixar characters. On top of that, MadCatz is also releasing a set of official arcade sticks. The whole experience will take players back to the arcade. Now, how old school is that?
Also anticipated:
Source: Inside Bay Area"Killzone 2": The shooter that generated an apocalyptic amount of hype based on its trailer will also be released in February. Now players can see if it lives up to those first impressions. Scheduled for release Feb. 27. "MadWorld": Platinum Games offers something rare on the Wii — a mature title.
With an art style that reminds me of Frank Miller's stuff, I'm
optimistic with this beat-'em-up. Spring 2009."God of War III": This looks to be the finale to one of the best series of the decade. I'm looking forward to seeing what Kratos' true fate is.

7. Pick up the winner and run around cheering / commiserate the loser
8. Give it another go! Don't forget, there are extra trophies and achievements available within this pack.

WiiWare Pool Title Features Realistic Controls Using the Wii Remote
Pool Revolution: Cue Sports is available for WiiWare. Players no longer need to worry about having enough space for a pool table with this fun and addicting game that can be played against friends in the living room or online.
“Pool Revolution: Cue Sports is the only pool game for WiiWare that lets people play online,” said Sabine Duvall, Vice President of Product Development at Hudson Entertainment. “Pool fans can now play with people from all over the world in the comfort of their living rooms.”Pool Revolution: Cue Sports features realistic controls where gamers use the Wii Remote just like an actual cue. The strength of the shot depends on how fast the player moves the remote. For those not quite ready to use an “actual” pool cue, the strength of the shot can be set by using the buttons on the controller.
Players can choose from the most popular types of pool for up to four players, including eight ball, nine ball, rotation, and snooker. An in-game tutorial will help provide descriptions of anything players need to know. Once gamers practice and understand how to play, they can also try performing trick shots in Puzzle Mode. For players ready for a challenge, they can even set up their own! And, for those who feel they are true pool sharks, there is online play for up to four players in a Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection matchup.
