-BioShock 2 Multiplayer: Getting to Rank 40 in this game is taking forever! I'm currently at Rank 33, which may sound close, but I still got a long ways to go considering how the game ranks you up. It usually takes around 3500/4000 points to get to the next Rank, and the average amount of points I get in team deathmatch, if I'm on the winning team, is 500. If I do bad or I'm on the losing team, it's normally about 300, if I do really good, it's about 800. It's starting to wear me out, but I am looking forward to getting some of the tonics in the later ranks, specifically, the one where my dead corpse explodes, killing anyone taking my picture or just happens to be nearby.

-Burnout Paradise: Decided to try this one out a few days ago, and it's not impressing me. I figured the concept of taking the series into a sandbox setting would be an interesting one, and it should have. However, the game feels so... empty. There really isn't any heavy traffic, and the sense of speed I got when playing Burnout 3 isn't in this game. The soundtrack is horrible, too. Avril Lavigne's Girlfriend? Seriously? The more I play, the more it makes me want to revisit Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

Edit: Okay, I've played a little bit more, and it seems to get a little better.
