EA Preps Burnout Legends for PSP Launch
And just like that the September (?!) PSP release date seems even further away. First screen.
Now that the PSP has a European release date - 1 September, in case you missed it - publishers are more confident about revealing their upcoming wares. Not that EA needs extra confidence. The Burnout series has been a roaring success for the company, so the recently announced Burnout Legends for PSP should do just fine.
This latest Burnout game has been refined to better take advantage of the PSP's unique gameplay possibilities. Not only are the traditional racing and crash-heavy modes included, you'll also be able to compete wirelessly with other players, while Game Share mode allows other PSP owners to download a demo level from your PSP.
As the name suggests, Burnout Legends is not an all-new game. Instead, the best bits from all the previous Burnout games have been collected and spiced up with new cars, new gameplay features and other surprises.
Burnout Legends will be out around the launch of the PSP in September and the game will be on display at E3 this month.
