I think this Burnout version is one of my favorites so far... and been one of my favorite games in a long time. Anyhow, I got the Island DLC, which was great, not going to bother with the cops/robbers till it drops but wondering if there is more DLC I have yet to hear about?

Turn down the machines.
Turn down the helicopter.
Turn down the prime time.
Shut those guns down.
Isn't that better?

There will be no more DLC for this game...

To get my true Gamerscore, add 8,435 to the number to your left...

Nope, Criterion are hard at work on the next Need for Speed entry. I can't wait, because Burnout and Need for Speed have always been my favorite two racing games, so this is like a dream come true for me. Although, who knows when we'll get any news on it, Criterion haven't updated their website, Twitter, or Facebook in FOREVER. And they used to post heavily on all of those.

damn... oh well, I'll keep it to wait for the price drop on the party and cops/robbers. It's such a great game it's a shame they don't put out more DLC.

Or at least make it cheaper...800 points JUST for cops and robbers?

heck, at this point I doubt they are selling it much... I don't even see many people playing it anymore. Pop all the DLC down to 200-400 points each and I bet they would have a ton of people buying it... in turn more interest... which leads to maybe some more sales of it... and more people playing again.

The only thing I see well-priced is the island. Which is probably all I'm going to get.

Apparently it will be out in 2010, and will not be any kind of merge of NFS and Burnout, in that the franchises are not merging.

It appears that EA has it right in recognizing that there are a lot of Burnout fans that don't like NFS, and vice versa. If fans who like both want to go out and buy a NFS game and a Burnout game, that's better for EA anyways.

EA needs to give NFS an identity, since it's always been a little schizophrenic. Even now you have Shift (realistic) and Nitro (exaggerated arcade), and then throw in the Carbons or Most Wanted or Undergrounds, not to mention the outight bad ones like Porsche Unleashed, and it's hard to even tell what a NFS game is.

Ya, that's why I have it. The buggy is a great car as well.

It seems to me that NFS now is just a prefix meaning it is a racing/driving game by EA. The new NFS games aren't really sequels to the previous titles anymore, EA are now using the NFS name as a brand/franchise for all of their car games.

That's what I noticed too, and why I had initially assumed - and still am not entirely convinced otherwise - that EA would start a NFS: Burnout series if only to just as a branding merge with no change to game styles or whatever.

Especially now that Shift seems to be in direct competition with games like GRID, whereas a traditional NFS would compete with games like Midnight Club.
