Electronic Arts has told Eurogamer any similarity between the Burnout Paradise box and the cover of an album by US band Karate is "pure coincidence".
As reported by Joystiq (http://www.joystiq.com/2008/01/14/burnout-paradise-art-style-inspired-by-rock-album/) earlier this week, the album was released in 2000. It shows a car coloured with red, black, blue and yellow tones on a white background.
Burnout Paradise is due out later this month for PS3 and Xbox 360. The game's cover shows a car coloured with red, black, blue and yellow tones on a white background.
However, an EA spokesperson today dismissed suggestions the similarities between the images were anything more than a fluke. "It is pure coincidence," he stated.
Burnout Paradise will hit the shops on 25th January.
