It’s been a while since I played Burnout Legends, and I needed something to play out and about. So I put my Odin in my pocket and did some dangerous driving in a waiting room.

I played a couple of single races, then jumped into the Super class in the World Tour Mode. About a half-hour later, I earned all the gold medals I was missing, completing the Super class. I thought all I had to do was then work on the Crash mode, and Burnout Legends would be complete!

Well, I managed to skip a class. Curse you Coupe class! I only have the road rages to complete, but wow are they eluding me!

Drive around and hit cars – why am I having such trouble with it?

I have unlocked all the Crash events, but there were a lot of Bronze medals in the mix. The second day I was out and about, I managed to convert the three Bronze medals into Gold ones. Progress is progress after all.

Burnout Legends is bite-sized enough that stopping play on short notice is easy. It was a fun return that I had been putting off for a while, and I might be putting off for a while longer.

There is a lot on the Odin that I have set up and working well, and some that aren’t working the way I was hoping it would. I tried playing another PSP game and discovered saves aren’t working even though Burnout Legends saves fine.

I need to finish the Coupe section to finish all the events

I need to sit down and spend some more time configuring the Odin it seems. I also want to spend some time experimenting with the dock for game recording. One day I will have all the time! In the meantime, I need to remember to preserve my Burnout Legends save file, or do it all again!
