Our Burnout stuff

Our Burnout Stuff

We have lots of merchandise here is a couple of the Burnout related items that ZombieTron and I have collected. We might do a story about it sometime. This picture probably contains some stuff you haven't seen before

PORTAL!

I got The Orange Box on Sunday and after hearing so much good about Portal I just had to play it. I completed the game last night and Holy moley... what a game! If you have the Orange Box and haven't completed Portal you should sit down and do it right now!

Xbox Originals will not have Achievements!

Earlier this week I listened to the latest Major Nelson blogcast and there will be no achivements or additional functionality for the XBox Originals. It will be just like playing them from the original disc.

Burnout Paradise vs. Guitar Hero III

Today I've been listening to the Guitar Hero III soundtrack and suddenly I was in Paradise...! Anyone remember the first Burnout Paradise Teaser? The music in the trailer is  My Curse by Killswitch Engage. I wonder if it will be on the Burnout Paradise soundtrack as well. One thing is sure tho, I will be rocking hard to My Curse in GH3

New logo

Some of you may have noticed that we have gotten a new logo for BurnoutAholics.com. It's something I've been thinking about doing for a while and today I finally got around to it. I've tried to keep it clean and simple. The font has been slightly changed and the red is a bit cleaner and brighter.

If we decide to keep it we might see another batch of t-shirts in a while .

Update 01-11-2007

It has  been a while since my last "updates" blog now. Today I did another couple of changes in our menu system. The "fun time" menu item is now gone and eveything that was in it is back on the BurnoutAholics menu. We felt that we were kind of hiding some really cool features and wanted to get them back to the surface.

Talking about retro gaming... the evolution of the FPS

Anyone remember "Pat & Mat"??? The show is a Czech stop-motion animation series. The two characters always get into problematic situations but they never give up, until they solve the problem in imaginative ways. Not sure if this show was ever aired in the UK. Anyway... about 3 years ago Tom Idland made a really funny parody for The Gathering 2004. Enjoy the video.
