Burnout Paradise release on the PSN this Thursday, Trophies to release immediately

September 23, 2008 in News comments 15

Guys remember a few weeks ago when Criterion stated that Burnout Paradise will make its way on the PSN to buy? Well its now official, it will be released on the PSN this Thursday. So for all you people who didn't get a chance to buy the disc version months ago or still don't have it, this is your chance to get one of the best multiplatform titles on the market right now.

And to the surprise with this Criterion stated " A pack delivering PS3 Trophy Support will be released imminently and included for free."
Now whether this means its coming out on Thursday or not, were not sure. But to check the listings of all the trophies please see the alternate source of all the bronze, silver, gold and platinum trophies.
And this is what Criterion says to close this marvelous blog article: "And there's plenty more to come. We're developing a new island location and much, much more. We'll bring you all the breaking stories, plus indepth features interviews with the team and Crash TV (our video podcast) here on Criterion Games."

    The title is a bit misleading, as they never said trophies would be released "immediately".

    I'm still on the fence about this game though because I have 2 racers I still haven't found time to play, and there hasn't been a statement as to the download size as far as I know.

    Imminently and immediately are two different things.

        Do you understand that he is saying your title is wrong?

        Yeah I get that dude. The word you saw in your source is imminently which means it WILL happen. In the title you said trophies will be available IMMEDIATELY. They aren't the same thing, and Criterion never said they would be available immediately.......I got that from YOUR source among others.

        You do know what "imminently" means, don't you? Well, probably not since you decided imminently meant immediatly, two words which have almost opposite meanings.

        Yes im aware Super, but I feel this will clean up any confusing. So no, not really a article title mistake.

          You link to a forum thread that has the same argument as to where people have heard trophies on Thursday? Everyone else in that thread is saying the same thing we are.......Criterion NEVER said Thursday. If you have access to a reliable source that shows otherwise, reveal it.

    Let's set some stuff straight:
    Immediatly does not equal imminently.
    You with me so far?
    Criterion never said anywhere that trophies are coming out on any particular date.
