The addition is really cool. I don't believe you can do bikes vs cars online but it really works well. From my hour or so online I found these things:

Handling and speed is good
Crashes are handled without any "parental" issues. You'll see the bike crash and the human is nowhere in the picture. This was done to retain the game rating as showing the rider anywhere in the event would affect the overall game rating (stupid IMO).
Braking completely needs works (aka it sucks). I know these are bikes so going from 100 to 0 in a second doesn't work but it is a game. The cars can drop 70 miles in a second so the bikes should be able to also. I only tried out one bike (the slow one) so maybe there's a difference in the other but I can't see it. Controls should be universal. I couldn't pull off any quick 180 turns and the brake button doesn't work at all. You have to use the L2 button to brake at all.


Overall it's cool tho as when you consider all that they've done to this game for free, it's amazing. Compare today's complete game to the disc you get at retail and you'll be shocked.

Yeah the bikes show great potential but just have a few flaws that niggle a bit. They're great fun though, but if PGR4 can have powersliding bikes, surely Burnout can?

Does anyone other than me actually have the game? This is something I thought Sciler would have killed for.

I do not have it. I don't have many PS3 titles that I actually play honestly Sad If it comes out on both systems, We tend to pick 360...but granted I dont have it on that either. I love the series but lately there is just too much stuff to play, so unless it was a MUST HAVE (Fable, Spore, Disgaea 3, etc) then I'm pretty much trying to be good and not go broke atm >_<
