Okay, what is going on with Burnout?  The idea of bikes I am still a bit skepticle about, will they handle like real bikes or what?  Is it going to be like Road Rash at all?  What is the point of having bike in burnout? Are the riders going to fly off with they crash?

Paradise is nice, real nice...But let's get back to the game that taught us how to really survive in Burnout...Takedown.  Legends was good, but lacking, Takedown had it for me.  Is Takedown even playable on the 360? and if so can we get online with it?  Could one transfer over their files to the 360?

I posted this over on Criterion Games forum, but it got locked pretty quickly and without a response from Criterion, so I am ranting here instead!

This is what I posted:

I was racing around trying to beat online speed Road Rules yesterday, and to my surprise I was Silver on Warren!!!

Can anyone tell me why after getting over a billion points in Showtime,(twice!), it won't save it?I have 638,808,150, and twice now the game has not registered my new score.When I check it, it still says 638,808,150!

This happened to me once before on a stunt run, when I finished it, the screen said that I lost this event, and I crushed it.I did it over and had success.

😕Right well i dont know where to start if youve read in a previous post about me and a bet ive just proposed to Dodger455.....then you know what it is ive done.....yep ive asked him to play and try Revenge for a whole month...and if he truly hates the game after 1 month...🤷...ill play Paradise solid for 2 weeks.....🤢.....now i dont particularly like Paradise as alot of you know but im willing to set this challenge.....WHY?....because i truly beleive that if you have a passion deep down for racing games then Revenge will be loved by all.....and i heard him say that he had never had the pleasure of actually playing Revenge but he loves Paradise....so am i mad?.....will he like it or will he loathe it?......🤔.......ive set the target for him to play for a month....WHY?.....because i know how disheartening the game can be after 1 week and i also know that it takes about 2 weeks to get into the swing of takedowns and boost starts and other tricks.....and also ill know by the 3rd week if he truly enjoys the game or not because he wont be playing......🤷.....but i know this wont happen......hes going to ❤️ it.......😛......so Dodger hit me back and let me know if your up for this challenge......🤞......i guess your also thinking what 🎁 hell get if he actually loves the game.....Well i think we all know the answer to that......❤️.....🚗......

I have updated some of the Links over on our Links page, as alot of the EA pages now direct straight to CriterionGames.com, I have removed them.  Some of the other links were also non-existant so have been removed.

I have added links direct to the Criterion Games YouTube channel and Flickr sites.

It's a bank holiday today in the UK and the weather is rubbish, so I thought I would take the opportunity to try out Ranked Racing in Paradise to see if it is any FUN.....

And it still isn't! 🙁

The few rooms I jumped into all had boost locks on slightly lower levels, 7 or 8 boost level cars. So I ran the Hawker in the 8 room and the Gamespot in the 7.

So it's been a while... 2 weeks vacation away from the dear box, and tons of work waiting when I was home all conspired to make me feel hopelessly out of date.

However, despite thoughts to the contrary, the first game that got loaded up was *not* Revenge for some online racing... nonono, Cagney update!!! (vacation was August 1 - 16) So what have I been doing on the box since? Oh, nothing much... aside from getting the map of Paradise permanently tattooed on the inside of my brain. I've actually found myself thinking; ok, so in getting to Coastguard, the fastest way is... you know how it is, I'm sure 😃

If you are playing Burnout on the XBOX 360 and want to extend your friends list with up to 99 BurnoutAholics you should keep reading...

As some of you probably know I own the gamertag BurnoutAholics. A couple of weeks ago at one of our BurnoutAholics meet-ups SUFFUR suggested that I should open up the friends list on BurnoutAholics and let members of BurnoutAholics.com join it so they easily can get in touch with other BurnoutAholics without filling up their own friends list.

which is the best stunt car? Because i use the gt flames and i keep missing some jump shortcuts. is this the cars or the lack of skill?

c'est la vie
