MOH: Airborne & Burnout Paradise first impressions

As you can see can see from the title I received my games from Gamefly. As far as the condition of the games go they are in real good condition. If you consider that these games were passed around to hundreds of gamers who could care less about the condition of the game then they are real good. The boxes and instructions look like they have never been touched. I would definitely buy from Gamefly again.

The first game I wanted to try out was Burnout Paradise. Even from the opening title screen and the familiar sounds of "Paradise City" by Guns 'n' Roses I knew this game was going to be fun. After getting used to the setup and prying myself away from just driving the car around to find jumps, shortcuts and billboards I was ready to start the events. Awesome first impression! The game is a lot of fun and I had a blast with all the different kinds of events. I believe the only problems that I have are the Stunt events and the fact that when racing online it didn't put me against racers at the same level as me but against racers with the best cars and I, at the time, had only unlocked 2 cars. I bet you can't guess who won those races.

Next up was Medal of Honor: Airborne. I am a FPS fan and had played the first couple of Medal of Honor games I believe way back on the PS1 but hadn't really heard anything good from the series in a while so I was a reserved about getting a new Medal of Honor game. It wasn't until I found it for cheap that I decided to take a chance on the series and after playing this game for almost a week I am glad that I did. The game is close enough to as good as the standard FPS game but on the other hand it is different enough that it stands out from your typical FPS. Jumping out of an airplane helps.
