Burnout Paradise: Upcoming "Cagney" update adds in-game home menu with internet news feed

Xenctuary | April 24, 2008 | Other | Playstation 3 XBOX 360 
Criterion Games have revealed a new home menu that will be included with the upcoming "Cagney" update of Burnout Paradise, currently scheduled for the end of June.

Players who boot into Burnout Paradise after downloading the "Cagney" update will be presented with a brand new home menu, complete with a live internet news feed, an event calendar and several customisable widgets, including current time and weather conditions.

Burnout Paradise's "Cagney" update will be made available for free to both PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360 owners this June.
We've been talking here at Criterion about getting a live update board in Burnout Paradise for a long time, so it's great to be able to finally unveil something!

[...]

The game will automatically launch this page, when you start the game, but you'll also be able to access it anytime during the game.
