Addiction points? What's that?

Some people might be wondering what these Addiction points are all about... well I thought it would be a funny thing to add. Basically the points gives an idea of how active you are on the site.

You get 3 points for a blog entrey, 1 point for comments, 1 point for suggeting a poll that gets put up on the site, 2 points for a FAQ that gets approved and added to our Burnout FAQ. Getting a clip added to the Revenge Clips gives you 5 points (only awarded once pr. user). If you write an article that makes it in to our Featured Articles section you can get anything from 5-50 points. There are lots of ways to earn points, but please remember that it's just a way to see how much users have contributed and it is no competition. If people start doing 1 line blogs to get more points I think you all know what will happen. 😈

Introduction

Burnout 2: Point of Impact offers adrenaline-pumping tunes, wince-inducing crash effects and a nitro boost that sounds like a jet engine. Mix them all together and you end up with an audio extravaganza that puts a smile on your face.

The Art of Drift Jumping

The Art of Drift Jumping by IVORBIGUN7

Ever wonder how racers fly past you at 280mph? Then look no further because I shall explain how it’s done.

Method 1 - The Drift Jump

With this type of drift jump you are literally drifting a ramp as you would a corner. Now there are two ways of achieving this. The first and probably easiest way is done without holding the boost. When you are approaching a ramp take your finger off the boost button, now when your car is going up the ramp tap the brake button and press left or right on the analog stick so you put your car into a drift. Once your car leaves the ramp instantly put your finger back on the boost button and when you land your speed will instantly increase. The timing of when you put your finger back on the boost is what dictates what drift jump speed you obtain so practice will teach you when to do this. I will add that when doing this type of drift jump you can actually move your car in the air by using the analog stick to spot your landing so you don’t jump into oncoming!

Burnout fans: prepare for Paradise. But be warned: according to the game's creator, you might think the latest game in the high-speed, fender-bending franchise is more like hell. 

Due before Christmas on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, Paradise lets drivers explore a huge, open world (the biggest publisher Electronic Arts has ever offered) based on roads in Los Angeles, Chicago and Boston.
