Burnout Paradise idiots - Posted 15:51 Saturday 18 Apr 2009
I’m sure this is the case for every online game.
To get a gold paint finish on a car you have to have completed a pile of trophies. That’s getting between A and B really fast, doing stunts, finding billboards etc. And Paradise City is not small.
In short, to get to gold you have to have [...]

Burnout Paradise. Great game but:
- it is taking longer and longer to load. Even if you pull the network connection it takes a long time to load
- my internet connection is crap today but even so it tried to pull in the ‘news’ so the loading took even longer. I want a ’skip this bit’ [...]
Game stress - Posted 11:48 Monday 2 Mar 2009
Last night I had the most pressure I have ever felt in any video game.
Was playing Burnout Paradise and was on bikes. Was getting bored with the game I was in (there is always one idiot who heads off in another direction to ruin a challenge) and accepted an invite to another. It was a [...]
490 to do. - Posted 13:50 Monday 23 Feb 2009
Having a really great time online with Burnout Paradise. I’d played a fair amount using the cars but there is probably more time spent taking other cars down and generally smashing other cars to bits. It’s all good stuff but challenges are where it’s at. Few nights ago I started with the bikes online. I [...]

Played some online Burnout Paradise last night. Great fun it was too. The race winner in each case was in an amazingly fast car and doing stunningly quick times. All the fun was way back though as one guy seemed intent on taking down as many other cars as he could. I got much of [...]
