On my way to 350

We have been playing quite a bit of Paradise lately... almost every day! The reason? to try to complete all 350 challenges before Cagney.

Xandu made it a couple of days ago, but I still have about 9 challenges left.. all 4 player ones.

I am hoping to get mine done next week.

Since we started playing for challenges I am actually enjoying Paradise a lot more. I have stopped thinking of Paradise as a racing game. We still do run the odd race or two, but it is in the same way we used to run crash junctions in Takedown and Revenge as a break from the main game and just to mix it up a bit.

When I want a racing fix I still choose Revenge over Paradise. I am going to compete in some ranked races when Cagney hits, and the changes may improve things, but I think the new challenges and online game modes will dominate my gameplay on Paradise.

Racing has become a subgame in Paradise.
