Finally listened to my first podcast last night, and urm I feal for you guy's nd gal's why do you do it, what insane buzz do you get out of Alex Ward ripping you to shreds, do you compete to see who gets it the worst feed back, if you know he  is like that why don't you use spell check, you all got mentioned but for the wrong reasons the burnout comunity laughed at you especially Sonic unlucky dude.

I have not changed this other than taking my name of it and removed some names, though it's obvious. But kept the bad spelling in, though the only thing i am worried about was i spelt Atari wrong, now that was lame, as i still play mine once in a blue moon.

Subject: Some gratuity, questions and some thoughts

Dear, Alex, Hamish, Pete, Craig and Matt and others that may join in like, German Taxi-Driver and the cleaner or even a female of the human species, that may work with you. I have to say, your Podcasts are excellent. And I also have to say this, because it has become a fad (in less than 2 podcasts), you guys rock, Whaa-hoo, (embarrasing ,but you like it, and we need you guys happy and focused).  I have heard a few (podcasts), from the Sony guys (its ok), Majornelson.com, (whom I use as a bench mark for all podcasts, he has been doing them for a while)and others not worth the mention. You are bringing life to our digital age, and seem to be of the age, where it all started, Sinclairs, Acorns, Commador's, Apple clones, Macs, BBC's, Pong, Atrari 2600 and the valued Game & Watch series from Nintendo. You gentlemen and i'm sure some ladies, have been around to be able to know, and abuse the technology we have taken for granted today, and use what you were brought up with to make and have made some very excellent games. So you guys have bought me some great listening pleasure, and don't worry about the age mentions, i am of also a similar age, just turning 37, on the 7th of September, though you people are younger than me.
 
Now enough of the nice talk, with new games coming out, like Halo 3, developers and game builders, (are they the same thing?) seem to more on the ball, with what the final product is going to be and then they test it to destruction, Halo 3 going Gold even before it's release (got this info from Wired Magazine). It has sadly been noted that your games seem to have the odd point in a game, where gamers can abuse your games to do things not really following the rules of the game, and yes you do fix most of them before to much damage has been done. But a good number of players have said, verbally, in forums and blogs, that your games were not tested enough to get the bugs sorted out, before release, though they still play on while they complain, LOL. Now it is understandable, that games are tested for what they are supposed to do, but in this day and age, with digital capture and games like Crackdown, it seems to be encouraged, for players to not follow the rules. What I would like to say, is your Game, this baby you spawned 2 years ago, going to get a through bashing by some abusers? I would like to offer my services to do this and am willing, if they are still popping up/invited, to go with 'them', (and yes, Zombie, is a girl, we have met, a couple of times) and give it a go if you're willing and allowing?
 
As you may or may not know I am a prolific writer of blogs, on the web site www.burnoutaholics.com, and I have written some stuff, speculation, abuse and other mind wandering diatribe, on the site. Now I know its not the case for a Company to answer, take notice, have time or even care what is said on fan sites, but if you could, would you have made comments or views to Xanadu's and Zombie's site, at www.burnoutaholics.com or others, that are links on the site? I think what I'm trying to say, is there anything that I may have written that may effect me coming up to see you people with 'them', if allowed?
 
Anyhew, thank you for the podcasts, they are a great learning experience for all involved, and the game is growing up to be something, fresh, inventive and sounding like something I'm going to lose more hours on, thank you, LOL.  I am sad about not having weather effects, ambient light changes and tearing my car in half, but what else can you throw in when your going 60 frames per second, there is never enough prossessing power!
 
I would like to note there are some similarities to the Midnight Club and Midtown Madness, though you would have called it Anytime-as-long-as-its-daytime-club or Paradise City Madness, rather than Burnout Paradise.
 
And will you have plans for some Downloadable content, for both consoles after you get your long awaited holidays out of the way, talking of that what does happen after you people finish a game?
 
Ps please excuse any spelling or grammatical errors, my Word, does not work, and i suffur, sorry, suffer from dyslexia, though i do try hard to make sure it is at least ledgable? I have also sent copies to Xan and Zom.
 
Yours Burnoutaholically Suffur.

Patience is something I taught myself, so I never know when its going to run out?

We only get buzzed up when you tear us apart Boot!  I think they were mostly only commenting on the spelling errors and yeah I got zinged once, but its my own fault for not spell checking my email, oh well.  I don't think they were too bad to anyone.  I thought it was interesting anyways.  I'm kinda bummed that they dodged my question about wheather or not there will be a kick function in there.  They just said 'good question' and then moved on.  Oh well.  I still thought it was cool.
