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.

We'll be switching off the servers on February 15, 2008 - after that, we encourage you to go buy the game and experience Burnout Paradise’s full capabilities, as you work together to complete the full repertoire of 350 co-operative challenges and compete to see who is the real King of the Road.

In order to enable the best possible experience for gamers who have purchased Burnout Paradise, we will be switching multiplayer off this Friday 1st February. We hope you enjoyed it! Now go buy the full game if you already haven't!

Steve Schnur, Worldwide Executive of Music and Music Marketing at EA said, "Burnout is one of the world's most popular racing videogames and demands a soundtrack that matches the game's intensity at every level.  We believe we've crafted a truly volatile mix of rock's most dangerous tracks - beginning with the iconic 'Paradise City' - for an audio fuel as explosive as the game itself."
