Coincidentally, I just delved back into Burnout Paradise last week after leaving it 1% completion it's been since its original release.

Always knew it was a decent game, but the open world and not gating off the tracks during races was a turn off for me. That's what kept me from playing and was something I'm still having to power through constantly having to navigate AND race. Tsk tsk.

Still good game but definitely not the best from Criterion because I LOVED Black and am sad that a sequel will not be arriving (although Trepang 2 more F.E.A.R. inspired does exist) any time soon if at all. Also Burnout 3 was just so great!

 

Never considered myself religious and during my younger years even dabbled in Atheism as a developing mind is inclined to do in questioning the beliefs they were brought up with.

However, recently I've been exploring philosophy as guidance and found the ideas behind Zen, Buddhism, Stoicism, and others expressed by the likes of Alan Watts, Ram Dass, Marcus Aurelius, and Miyamoto Musashi.

Just curious if anyone relates and if there's an encompassing term for these similar philosophies and individuals aforementioned. Not sure if this the the appropriate forum but I have some free time and wanted to engage in some conversation :)
