Where the grass is green and the girls are pretty

FINALLY!!!

After a long, bleak Christmas where bugger all has come out, Burnout Paradise is finally out. And you know what? It's actually good.

It's radically different to the other Burnout games. It feels like Need For Speed multiplied by Burnout. You drive around the city, wherever the hell you like. Every single junction has a mission. A majority of them are races where you get from point A to point B, but there's no restriction on the route you take.

The crash point junction slo-mo things have gone and have been replaced by something a little similar where you can press LB & RB at the same time, then you flip over and start bouncing along the road, press A at the bottom and you'll hop upwards, then you basically have to smash into as many cars as you can while you've still got turbo. Lots of fun but it may get a bit tiring after a while coz after you've smashed into 120+ cars you get a little bored and just want to finish.

Still, it'll hold my attention for the next couple of weeks and at least i don't have to go back to the old games just for something to do.
