View Full Version : SG Summer Games, Week Three; Saturday, August 15th, Burnout Paradise (360 AND PS3!)

Now that we've got the basics, let's up the level of difficulty for the staff.
Let's run Burnout: Paradise on both the PS3 and 360! I didn't realize that COD4 was on both systems, so why not set it up to double our numbers for next week. That's twice as many players!

I will see if I can borrow a copy from my neighbor, and whichever one he has will be the one I'm on. I will obviously announce that!

Game: Burnout Paradise (NO DLC NEEDED)
System: PS3 AND 360
Date: August 15th
Start Time: 9 PM British/4 PM EST/1 PM PST
End Time: 12 PM British/7 PM EST/4 PM PST

Rules:
1) OFFICIALLY Register by adding to this link; make sure that you add your Gamertag information for your official registration.

2) Saturday during the game "night", link up with the SGers playing and send me or TO BE DETERMINED STAFF MEMBERS an IN GAME message, email or forum private message to verify you were there and playing.

PSN ID: Shanghai Six
Gamertag: SG Shanghai Six

3) Profit! Well, not quite. You get one credit towards our PAX raffle, and a bonus ticket will go out to the Sarcastic Gamer who proves most baddest ass-est of all for that week!

4) And, there's still a pretty good chance there's another prize (while may not be monetary) up for grabs. Could be dude with the most attendance, could be one of our weekly ass kickers, could be another raffle? Who knows? I sure don't, but we'll be sure to lock it down prior to PAX!

Jesus facepalming Christ, this is turning into a fun game.

Okay, look over the rest of the registration posts that people have made. Do you see anything that your post doesn't have? Anything missing from your posts? Any information you might want to give out so that people can find you in game?

HINT: Put your god damn gamer tag or PSN ID in the post, please.

I cannot see signatures from where I'm at; they are usually a bunch of broken links. My job blocks access to most main video game sites. Hence, my asking for them to be registered manually.

I am thankful this site somehow slipped under the radar, however.

Now I thought the 360 had the bigger install base but apparently PS3 owners love Burnout.

Now time to play Burnout for the first time in a couple of months

PillowFort
08-15-2009, 08:21 AM
I will write some articles and then try to get my licence from B to Burnout in the hours before I'm due to be an awesome internet celebrity with you people.

Is this likely? Considering my favourite mode is marked man and there aren't really enough of them around, and also I'm not really an internet celebrity.

Unfortunately, despite his inane rambling on about mental disorders and his long distance love affair with Jax, it pains me to announce Big But 5 was obviously the ass kicker of this round for 360.

We had a great turn out on the PS3! I know our room was full the whole time and that Codinthepocket and Ognawk hosted for a while too. If your name is not in the list, let us know asap!

After almost 4 and half hours of constant play it's hard to say who was the "winner." I'm just going to say Vanshen is the winner for taking me out mid-air as I was doing my third roll...pwnage! We spent the majority of the time running 7 and 8 player Freeburn challenges and Time Trials. No drama, just a hell of a lot of laughs.

One of the best GamerNights we have ever had on the PS3 imho. Hope you all had as much fun as I did and we'll see you for the next event!

Vinc3nt
08-15-2009, 08:46 PM
That was one of the best takedowns I've seen Pacman and Yamster played aswell just as he wasn't on the list for any reason.

With Burnout can you really have a clear winner?
