so was off work yesterday so I could go on my boarding session in evening (freestyle snowboarding) and while passing the time through the day i thought 'hey my Burnout 3 profile is corrupt let me make a new one' and so i did...

well its been a while and it seems little miss tron has been missing me by the last message I got on the 360... so i'll explain what i have been up to and why i've not been on as much as normal...

so was on the play.com website looking at dvd/games etc just seeing what was around and had a look at paradise to see what date they reckon it will be availabe.. sorry still no change will have to wait til the end of  the year.. but I couldn't resist.. i am drunk, i'm a burnoutaholic and i have already pre ordered my copy of paradise..

Although I am looking forward too, nay, antisipating with youthful enthusiam for the release of Paradise, I feel that we need to pay our respect to the Lobby for she has served us well over the past few years.

 Personally I feel there is a need to shed a little tear and pay homage to something that provided a safe haven from the carnage, agression, no-holds barred frenetic racing and raging that Burnout exueded.

 So why do I feel such a sense of loss with the release of Paradise? Let me explain..

Again bored at work and just looking at 360voice in the first time in ages to see if my 360 had anything intresting to say on its blog.. apart from the increase in achievements in the last couple of weeks it seemed happy as larry and in a blissful state (first for me)..

as there had been a number of changes I was just checking out the information and there was a Top 20 gamers for Burnout Revenge.. and guess what.. three of us burnoutaholics are in the top 20 for playing on Burnout..

so as you may be able to tell, I'm very busy at work today.. as part of my research and keeping up with industry trends I took my daily look at www.theregister.co.uk and the following article caught my eye..

Confused.. was just looking on play at the new games for the 360 and noticed that Burnout Paradise is now due for release on the 14th December 2007,, when the F*** did that happen.. thought it was supposed to be out in September.. why are they doing this??? build up our hopes only to take them away

So this is the updated site.. looking good Xan and Zombie.. must say a thank you to both as you guys are some of the originals that have made me into the addict I am.. also thanks to El Sufur, Jynnx and all the rest that have aided in my downfall (lol)..

so unlike the majority of the BA guys I'm quite a noob only ever starting on Burnout 3 Takedown.. but thankfully the years and hours spent on takedown and revenge have made me feel right at home here..
