We got the results through for the Where in the World is MattW contest!

We'll be contacting the winners via their gamertags this week and getting them something from the studio as a reward for guessing 8 or more of the 9 mystery shots right.

For those of you that want to check the results, here they are!

We know some of these were a little tricky and fell right on the line, so we've decided to be generous with them.

In response to our request for information about the ladies that play Burnout and how we can make it better for this audience… here’s one of the posts back!

We just had to call out Delia55:

"I'm a 54 yr old grandmother who loves Burnout Paradise and have my Elite and am 101% think that qualifies me for a T shirt!!!!"

We love this story and want to do everything we can this year to make Burnout into a game that everyone from our most ardent hardcore race fans to their grandmothers can enjoy!

If you haven't done it yet, hit the link to the right and head over to the forums with your feedback.

All good things must come to an end...

...and so is this the case with this demo. I know I've said it before, but the servers that allow the online games to take place are finally going to be taken down.

A sad day for many of you no doubt, but I hope to see some of you in the massively popular online games taking place in the full game.

Want to set up a race, 350 Freeburn Challenges and up to 8 players online again - no problem!

See ya there!

Before the weekend, we set up nation vs nation for a look at our most-improved international ranked racers.

We wanted to find out how much the average score could increase for those nations and the results are amazing!

Although the mighty USA increased their overall gamer score the most - an awesome 430,026, followed by an increase of 306,774 for the UK, this weekend's racing was about average score per player.

And on that count, our top nation was Croatia with an incredible average points improvement of 9,328. That was way ahead of the competition!

The Koreans cruised into 2nd place ahead of the Hungarians.

Also worth a mention are New Zealand (1,256) just ahead of Australia (1,075)

Here's the full leaderboard of our most improved Burnout Paradise nations:

Pos.	Country	Score
1	CROATIA	9,328
2	KOREA, REPUBLIC OF	1,988
3	HUNGARY	1,296
4	PORTUGAL	1,261
5	NEW ZEALAND	1,256
6	HONG KONG	1,219
7	AUSTRALIA	1,075
8	JAPAN	1,050
9	IRELAND	974
10	SWEDEN	947
11	NETHERLANDS	937
12	GERMANY	915
13	UNITED ARAB EMIRATES	894
14	SOUTH AFRICA	888
15	BELGIUM	872
16	FRANCE	864
17	RUSSIAN FEDERATION	855
18	ITALY	852
19	UNITED STATES	826
20	CANADA	812

Unfortunately, the 20th place wasn't enough to secure Canada a leaderboard of its own, but the Paradise City Officials have been persuaded to consider an appeal and may recognise Canada within the next few weeks, based on consistent improvement.
