Burnout Paradise coming to PC Electronic Arts stated that Burnout Paradise will be coming to the PC as early as Februari 2009. EA is busy creating a limited demo that will be made available before the official launch of the PC version. Supposedly the PC-demo will actually be a demo of the full game - this allows PC-users to fully test the game to make sure it runs well on their systems.

Minimal system specs:
- OS: Windows XP (Service Pack 2 or higher)
- CPU: Intel Pentium 4 2,8GHz of equivalent
- RAM: 1 GB
- Graphics card: 128MB with Pixel Shader 3.0
- Internet: Broadband for online activation (gosh I wonder) and online gameplay. 512 Kbps or faster.

Recommended specs:
- OS: Windows Vista
- CPU: Intel Pentium 3,2Ghz or equivalent
- RAM: 1.5 GB
- Graphics card: 128Mb with Pixel Shader 3.0
- Internet: Broadband for online activation (gosh I wonder) and online gameplay. 512 Kbps or faster.

4 Gb of harddrive space will be needed to install the game. This is excluding the save games - which tend to be quite large. Users that have opted to buy the game through EA Download need 8,16Gb to accommodate the installer and the installed game.

I have it for the 360.

I have it for the 360. While not as great as all previous Burnout games for every platform except the DS (which received an awful version), it's still one of the best arcade racing series of all time and a welcome addition to PC gamer libraries. All the free content that's been released for Paradise to date has also been nice.

Yes, a definite 'wannahave'

If you don't have it on Xbox 360 or PS3, you might want to get this one for your PC! Excellent game. Well executed - great graphics and nice gameplay. It's a true arcade racer!
