I really feel bad for whoever is in these pictures.

I had a friend with burnout 3. A lot of time was spent on crash mode. Also have paradise on PC, but I didn't play it that much.

Have to install paradise again and get into it properly.

Is that mouth just a texture with the camera angle painted on it?

Honestly that's just great.

Might be Midnight Club. PS2 is where I got in.

It wasn't a remaster, and not really a remake either, as the games are completely different. I think it would've been better off released with its own title, or even in a different series as it was very Burnout-y, being made by Criterion.

I wouldn't call them my favourites, but I will call them a perfect fit. The licensed soundtrack in MW has exactly the correct feel for the game.

Oh cool, I kind of got interested in this stuff last year and read a short book about it.

A track is a series of challenges (corners), separated by straights, which give you a breather to recover and prepare for the next corner. In a circuit, you get multiple attempts to learn and improve your execution of those challenges. I've been thinking about ways to incorporate that into other genres as well.

The author also wrote some 500-600 page breakdown of Wario Land 4, which I also bought, but haven't dared to start reading yet.

I have it on loan. I recall being told this one wasn't that expensive when bought a few years ago, so it was an instant decision for someone looking for a ps2. I'd have done the same.

Are you spying on me mate

Posting that while I'm going at it with this setup

Doesn't it contain a bunch of licensed code like Havok physics

I'm surprised they survived this long, being a crappy imitation brand that also committed fraud.
