Holiday wishes from Criterion sends the Jansen 88 Special in flight
If you told us in January that we'd still be excited about Burnout Paradise a year after it released, we'd call you crazy. Games, as we all know, tend to lose their luster over time unless something drastic revitalizes our love affair with them. What could jolt us back into Paradise City? 1.21 Gigawatts? Close.
The Jansen 88 Special, one of four new vehicles hitting the streets of Paradise City in the New Year. This virtual DeLorean clone features retractable tires, sending the nuclear-powered car into the air at breakneck speeds. Just remember to save those points kids because this DLC asks a price. Great Scott! Hey, for the amount of free DLC Criterion Games threw at us all year, who can complain? Check out Criterion Games' holiday greeting video featuring the Jansen 88 Special, embedded above. To learn more about 1.21 Gigawatts, jump in for an informative music video.

Ahaha, that was awesome. I especially liked that music video. Man back to the future was some great stuff.

I just got this game today for Christmas. Shockingly it came from my non-gamer sister :O However, I refuse to pay DLC for 3-4 maps so obviosuly I won't be buying this no matter how cool the car looks

I have to admit, I really loved this game... the thing that really killed it for me was the time of day changes that they added in. Day is fun, you can see everything. Night just sucks. And there is no way to go back. :-(
