so was on revenge last night as one of my alter ego's and was having a laugh with some noobs during the gaming.. but before we get onto that.. whats with all the kicking going on.. i know i have a room rule when hosting of 'no mic no play' but anyone else is welcome.. unless there annoying and then they will be booted.. but was having difficulty getting a game.. took about 20min and 3 of 4 attempts at joing the only race room open and getting booted.. i know the rank i had was low but it was only 403.. and the host was sitting on the 1500ish number so it would have been close..

Tried to Play some more Revenge after a lag out, signed back in to LIVE, could play the game single player, but not on line, "Game is not available at this time" etc, that I thought , would play another version, could not play 3 or Paradise.

Zombie and Xandu were also having issuses too. Also when I signed on I had an Open NAT, after the Lag out went to Moderate, did a reset to get it Open again but could still not sign in? Even after couple of tries with out the router.

Criterion Games announced last week that there was going to be another big announcement on the Podcast on Friday, this filled me with dread cos I don't like surprises... the last announcement they made was for a car with no boost which has a really fast top speed.. surely this big heavy car can't be faster then an aerodynamic PCPD with boost???  The big announcement tho was for Motorbikes and night time which I am looking forward to trying out.

I am still at a Burnout Licence, but now with only 99 more wins.  I got the Hunter Citizen and the Hunter Civilian (burning route version) and the citizen is probably my favorite car so far, though i do like the crazy speed of the Walmart GTR.

 So after having the recent fun and games with Microsoft with regards to getting my 2 360’s fixed I ended up with 2 free months worth of xbox live.. although my subscription is up for renewal and I could have got two free months for ‘drunknnumpty’ I decided to reactived my second tag and see what I could do with the rank on Revenge.. think its currently around the 800 mark and was going to see if I could get it down below my regular tag’s rank of <300..

Im playing Paradise on my PS3 and currently have a Burnout License w/ (only!!) 103 more wins till elite, lol.  My fav car right now is Steel Wheels GT, and the Hunter Citizen just entered Paradise City, so when i play tonight im gunna devote most of my time to searching for it. 

I know I'm a little late on this, but who cares.

I have played online games for a long time now.  Mostly, it has been MMO's, but in all online gaming, there has remained one constitant - people complaining about updates that are not even out yet.

I never understood it.

Hell, half of the time, the people complaining about it end up enjoying the changes.  They can rarely admit it, though, so they end up making excuses about why they keep playing.  And they lament about how the game is no longer '[insert game title here]'.

Which is blatently stupid.
