Burnout Coming Out on PC

Unexpected but not unwelcome, Shacknews are reporting that Criterion are bringing the latest version of their console racer to the PC. More details will be forthcoming, but they're talking about improved online stuff and community-driven content. The last one strikes me as the interesting on. Burnout Paradise, in its open city with seamless multi-player play, is an interesting space for the community to create.

And before anyone who hasn't heard of Burnout start googling and panics about the game's apparent stability, the crashes Burnout specialises in are the good kind.
