Burnout Paradise: The Ultimate Box will be arriving on the PC in February 2009 and will be coming with an amazing demo. The whole game will be playable in a trial period, while the extent of the trial period has not been confirmed yet, it is most certainly a great way to get people to [...]
If Serious Games were to take the form of an anthropomorphic animal from an 80s before-church-on-Sunday cartoon, they would be Willy Fogg from Around the World with Willy Fogg.
