Good idea, it is kinda strange knowing virtually nothing about people you have discussions with. My real name is Al, I am 27 and live in Manchester, UK with my fiancee and 2 kids (girl aged 7 and boy aged 1) I work as a draughtsman using AutoCAD. I like movies, games and music. I enjoy any kind of movie thats good within it's genre, I'm no film snob. I like predominantly rock music but there are songs in every genre that I like, my fave bands are pink floyd, coheed & cambria and Brand New (who have a track on Paradise playlist! although it's not their best song) I like most types of games except sport sims. My fave ever games/series are burnout, gta, gran turismo, metal gear solid & hitman I also read a lot, terry pratchett and Ian Rankin mainly. tv shows i watch at the moment are: The office usa, Reno 911! (not shown in UK  ) CSI and sarah connor chronicles (2 eps so far) |

My real name is Asad, I am 13 and am from Pakistan but live in Saudi Arabia at the moment.  I basically love anything to do with computers and am an avid Photoshopper. I also love video games and as such my dearest possession is my PS3 closely followed by my HP laptop. I also love music and books. I love rock music, though sometimes like music from other genres too. Guns 'N Roses, Red Hot Chili Peppers and Muse are some of my favourite bands. I also love older bands like Led Zeppelin and Deep Purple. I love racing games and also sports sims (mainly cricket/soccer), and am starting to love shooting games. Still, most shooting games/games that involve some blood gore are rated M and so I can't buy 'em. My dad refuses to believe I am mature enough to handle some blood. I oppose, there's more violence in my home country right now than there is in Assassin's Creed! I also love reading and can read anything I pick up. Heck, I once read the back of a bottle of shampoo because I was bored in the bathroom  . I like Agatha Christie, Anthony Horowitz, and Christopher Paolini books. I also love soccer (though I suck at it), and support Arsenal from the EPL. I also like cricket and support my home country, Pakistan. I don't really watch much TV, except matches and the odd episode of The Suite Life or something like that if I am bored. That sums it up! |

Arsenal I support Man united, been to a couple of matches this season. Only kidding with the , I believe in friendly rivalry, I hate how nasty and ignorant people can get over sport. Arsenal are a great team, they have earned their position, how can anyone say otherwise, although United are better  Love deep purple and led zep, classic rock is awesome! Muse are really good too. G'n'R are cool, not keen on chilli's though. |

Sweet Child O' Mine = Heaven! Man U? Yeah, I also hate ugly rivalries between fans...though the 2-0 win over AC Milan yesterday was absolutely awesome! Man U are great too, but I hate the fact that their players go solo, I love the way Arsenal pass and try to find gaps. Of course, Ronaldo looks amazing scoring his hat trick with all that fancy trickery, but give me some intricate passing and through balls over that any day! That's what I like about Arsenal. The Chilis aren't really a rock band, they've combined some 'childish' elements with rock and funk and well, I like the result! We've all got different opinions.  Asad |

I know what you mean, but as long as Ronaldo keeps scoring I'll let him off. If the goals dry up he'd better start passing more!
Bravo for last nights result by the way, AC Milan away in the 2nd leg is quite a scalp.

Yeah, I'm proud - First ever win by an English team on AC's home soil I agree about Ronaldo. BTW, let's leave this post for the other's intros and post in the General Chat board, okay? |

hey everybody.
I am in the Air Force and I am a Father of two. One boy (6) and girl (4). My wife, god bless her, tolerates the hours upon end I play BP. She is a saint. I am 29 years old and fix medical equipment for a living. I live in Illinois (Scott AFB) which is about 30 minutes east of St. Louis.
I found out about this site from a friend's message. Glad to hear you guys are here. Hope to play with you all online.
Vancaster

For those who don't know, Mr M is a friend of mine (hopefully he agrees ) from the ISRC. I invited him here to help us test the forum, comment on the design and such. He joined 2 days after I created the forum and so was one of our earliest members. Even though he doesn't own Burnout, he's a brilliant guy and I'd like to thank him for joining up and providing me with the positive feedback I needed to get this place up and running. Thankfully we have a small but brilliant and growing community! BTW, Mr M I noticed this is your first post here since you joined! |
