Burnout Paradise update to include motorcycles

The next massive update to Burnout Paradise will be released next Thursday (September 18, 2008) on PSN and Xbox Live. This update will bring motorcycles to Paradise City and will mark the first time bikes have ever been in a Burnout game. Unlike the cars, the purpose behind Burnout‘s bikes is not to witness outrageous crashes. Bikes will introduce a whole new element of speed with an emphasis on style and control. If you do crash, the rider will fly off the screen without showing them flailing about on the pavement.
Initially there will be two motorcycles to choose from with…
Three shades of Tron
For those of you who dig retro games - and those who have retro gaming gear like the X-Gaming Tankstick - you might want to download these three Tron homebrews.
Each of the games has a slightly different take on the infamous light cycle segment of the movie. FLTron2.0 Onlineis Flash based game you can play online and GLTron is available as a download for Mac, Win32 and Linux. Armagetron Advanced may be the best all, a 3D version also available for Mac, Windows and Linux with a multiplayer local network mode.
You basically speed around a grid, laying a temporary solid trail that you hope you opponent will hit and avoiding their trail. It’s kewl, it’s futer-y and it’s fun. Give them each a try and let us know what you think.
