[edit] Online Marked Man
Similar to single-player Marked Man, in freeburn marked man, a player is randomly selected by the game to be the 'marked man'. The other players gang up on the 'marked man' and try to take him down. The 'marked man' scores by taking down those chasing him down and making it 90 seconds without crashing or being taken down.

Players are randomly put on one of two teams. One team tries to race through set checkpoints while the other team tries to stop them by taking them down. You will be able to play freeburn road rage with up to seven other players.

[edit] Additional Fixes

[edit] Live Page
The Live Frontpage is accessible through the EasyDrive Menu and the Start Menu. It shows Burnout Paradise news updates, what you've done recently in Paradise City, and what people are playing online.
