The Burnout Paradise demo has been a hot downloaded item off of the PSN and the online portion of this demo was scheduled to end on February 1st.  However, EA has decided to continue the online capabilities of the demo through February 15th instead.  They still are pushing gamers to purchase the full game for the fantastic experience this game offers though.

"As you may know, Burnout Paradise is built to provide the ultimate in freedom and discovery online and offline. The demo did a terrific job of providing players a taste of that.  Seeing how the social online multiplayer gameplay is such a huge part of Burnout Paradise, we've decided to keep the multiplayer demo functionality on for a bit longer," the spokesperson said.

This is great news for gamers who are a bit strapped for cash and are unable to purchase this title as of yet.  PSU.com will be putting out our review of Burnout Paradise within the coming days, so watch out for it if you’re still sitting on the fence swaying side to side.  You won’t be disappointed.

    Yeah, I'm with you Gingo.  I picked this up day one...  First time I've picked up a Burnout game and I was blown away.  Kind of disappointed I missed out on the rest before it.

    I had the original Burnout game and got bored of it quickly, so I never bothered with the later titles. However, I did pick up Paradise, and I'm loving it every minute of it.

    I wish I had five hands to give you five fingers fenny's lol. XD. Played the demo and I must say its really fun. It really doesn't matter if you missed the earlier installments but playing games like this brought me back to those arcade style simulations if anyone remembers playing those in the 90's.

    agreed uncool! i also thought that the gameplay felt very similar to the old 90s style 1$ racers in the arcades lol and it was great! its nice to see a game putting more emphasis on fun then on realism
