Burnout Paradise - The Ultimate Box

Does this game install a bunch of **** like GTA4? I'm tempted to buy it but if it's going to install Windows Live and all that ******** I'll not bother.

I didnt even need to use the CD :)

Just download the trial version:
http://download.nvidia.com/downloads/nZone/demos/nzd_BurnoutParadiseOB_PC.zip

Then enter your product key from the box to activate the full version :)

OR

Install the EA download manager:
http://files.ea.com/downloads/eacore/eadm-installer.exe

Enter your product key and download similiar to STEAM.
 
Anyone figgered out how to get the dual or triple monitors working, cos whe select a 2monitor from within the game it disdlays the both screens on the 1 monitor??

Im having the same problem.

On mine, its just showing my normal desktop on the 2nd screen.

Is it that you need one of the Matrox (Dual/Triplehead) adapters to enable multi monitor support?
 
I do have mine set to span.

The only resolutions you can select are the regular ones, none of the ultra widescreen ones. Within the game settings though, you can select the number of monitors you are using.

When set to two screens, the display which is working does look as though half of it is missing.

I am using Windows 7 though, will try in Vista/XP.

I have not read anything official from the developers which states how the multi-monitor support actually works. I will email them, see what they say.

oh that'd be so awesome.. I loved playing the Midtown Madness cops and robbers - if Criterion could replicate that fun, I'll cry tears of joy!

Has it been announced if this is chargeable DLC?

I like the game but really dont like these micro transactions, well, especially for something like this which could have been included upon release. Maybe im just being grumpy.

Gimpy>Get the demo download and we will have a bish bash at it. I seem to recall playing on Grid with you in the little f3000 cars.

I remember that well.

The F3000's were the only cars I liked in Grid, mainly because you could race on Donnington :)

Did they open it up so you could race any cars on any Track?

Anyways, I have Burnout now so dont care :)
 
Anyone bought the Cops and Robbers DLC?

I was really looking forward to this... is the online any good for the expansion?

Also, is Surf Island any good also?

Thanks.

EDIT:

Looks like they have given us the finger :(

No information regarding a PC release for either of the above packs.. I REALLY liked the look of the Cops and Robbers DLC too.

Still no sign of the DLC for the PC.

Way to go Criterion/E.A

Promise us the world on release along with a very well optimised game (It has to be said) then give us the finger.

I dont get it.

The game shown sooo much promise too.
