Posted on June 9th, 2008 at 13:38 EDT

Criterion games isn't slouching one bit when it comes to bringing fans of their Burnout series the best game possible. With their second major update expected to release at 9:00 AM GMT on July 10, fans of the series may start to become spoiled.

Criterion released the official patch date for the Cagney update and also included a slew of details for gamers to check out. We've included below the majority of those details and we'll provide you with a link at the bottom to check out the rest of the patches and fixes that Cagney will correct.

somethin tells me that since they are adding individual custom soundtrack support, the FW wont be for a while after that... why would they do that if its supposed to be out so soon? doesnt make sense.
