I finally went out and bought Burnout Revenge. Burnout 3 was easily my favorite game of this year and I played over 120 hours of it during the year. First impression is that Revenge isn’t as good as Takedown. But it’s hard to follow up a nearly perfect game (see GTA: Vice City). Gameplay seems easier because you can hit same-way traffic now and the roads feel wider and less crowded. The music in the game has many of the same elements such as songs by Pennywise, Yellowcard, Funeral for a Friend. They’ve mixed the soundtrack up with some electronic music. Now people like BT, Junkie XL, and The Chemical Brothers. It makes it seem almost too tame and run of the mill though. I’ll have a better idea of how it stacks up after I beat it.

On a slightly related note, check out these pics from az-zbum.com. It’s a Mitsubishi Eclipse with a jet engine (sounds like a smart idea right). It seems like it’s just for show but it’d sure be cool to drive 100mph and fire that thing up. More pic1, pic2, pic3.

I just watched the preview of Chappelle’s Show’s third season. Charlie Murphy’s TV Guide interview left me under the impression that the third season would go straight to DVD. I’d actually prefer if it was on DVD. We see parodies of Cribs, Lil Jon, Supersize Me, Frankenstein, Alf, Michael Jackson, Teen Wolf, and much more. Even if they can only squeeze out about 5 episodes I look forward to seeing them.
