Put it in drive

After holding out against the video game revolution for years, I finally bought a PlayStation 3 about a month ago. Picking the PS3 was a tough decision once I decided to get a system - it wasn't designed strictly for younger children, like the Wii, and it had more, um, violent titles than the other systems. But the guys at the store pointed out the incredible leap in sophistication of the system over the XBox360 and the Wii, and suggested that I get Burnout Paradise as my first game, since the kids would enjoy it, there are no guns, no real violence other than car wrecks, no complicated strategy, and just a heck of a lot of fun. And they were right. It's graphically amazing and the scenery is beautiful to look at, with an unbelievable level of realism to it. And it doesn't even use the full HD capabilities of the PS3. And it just cracks the girls up, too.

And now I'm even happier that I picked Burnout Paradise. I've got to take a drive and try to find some billboards. I wonder, do I need to wait for October 20, when early voting begins in Florida, to see the billboards here, or has early voting has already started in Paradise City?
