Can think of a few others that were part of prominent companies and were pretty much subpar drivers.

I’ll comment the same that I despise the Wrangler.

The first Formula 1 game by Psygnosis has a “feature” similar to this. There’s a hidden menu in-race where you can activate the camera meant to be shown during replays. The issue is the cameras are all very long pan shots, along with if you happen to hit the grass you go into a fantastic spin and lose a lot of time.

A lot of it is ultimately dealer mark-ups. Dealers had a sweet spot where they were getting away with mark-ups during the pandemic, and now that we are trying to make attempts to go back to normal these same dealers have no real reason to get away from these antics. Why would you go back to MSRP levels where your…

Every director/head/chief at my job has driven the same brand car; it’s either a 10 to 20 year old Subaru Outback or Forester. Literally EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. has driven an old Subaru SUV.

And your comment really plays off of what is the real elephant sitting in the room here; this is a JRPG, as in a Japanese role playing game. JRPGs are ultimately made by Japan for Japanese people as the intended audience. A Japanese company doesn’t go into making a JRPG and ask themselves “Gee, we better make this…

People act like there isn’t already plenty that they could be playing out there. I know damn good and well every one reading this that plays video games hasn’t played everything in existence, more so probably hasn’t even played through everything sitting on their shelves. There’s absolutely no reason for you to…

I rented a Pacifica hybrid a while back. Had a lot of qualms with it but also had a lot of pros.

You don’t want to run a red and get an infraction for it. Doubly so if you run the red and then cause an accident.

We also don’t know how to just simply talk with one another, especially when a disagreement arises. Men are particularly terrible at this, and I put a lot of blame on our phone & constantly-online culture for that. It’s as if in the past ~twenty some odd years or so our social skills have been on a very gradual &…

I know you already know so I’m preaching to the choir, but having debt isn’t a terrible thing. “Good” debt is absolutely fine. I think the previous’ line of thinking is a trap that - Americans in particular - fall into thinking they just cannot have a payment of any sort.

Not toilets, but there are urinals in Dark Forces. Towards the later stages of the game - I want to say without looking up something it’s before you board the Executor before traveling to the Arc Hammer - you come across a set of urinals in a star destroyer. What’s great is not only do you come across them, but…

This is part of why I haven’t purchased a PS5 yet. Not only are plenty of really good titles still coming out on PS4, but many still continue to cross gen despite intentions to go forward. The consistent overlap to last gen and the somewhat miniscule current gen-only offerings isn’t making me want to rush out and…

I don’t know if “curse” is possibly the best way to describe previous video game -based movie failings. I think what it more ties into is that now in 2023 more people have actually played video games and are familiar with them, whereas twenty-plus years ago you were taking real gambles in making movies based off…

The issue with removing an airbag equipped steering wheel, but changing nothing else, is that the SRS restraint (ex: the seatbelt) is designed in front impacts to throw you into the airbag. If you remove an airbag equipped steering wheel and then don’t change anything about the restraint setup, any type of frontal…

I personally really like de-badging. It’s not to try to make a particular model seem like something it’s not, but rather a lot of modern brand and model insignia is sometimes ‘heavy’ on one side but ‘light’ on the other. So removing it all gives some symmetry to what is going on. I also believe it just looks cleaner.

Jesus Christ console exclusivity has little to do with it. There’s ALWAYS been prominent console exclusives with video games.

My C5 Corvette will be twenty five years old next year, which kind of blows my mind typing it.

The first iterations of the mainline games for Idolm@ster on consoles were initially XBox 360 console exclusives. It was for a short time period a factor in 360s seeing an uptick in sales, as the games were ports of their arcade counterparts. That changed with the second mainline game - released a full four years…

If memory is serving me correct what occurred in relation to the prototype’s design is the original intended lamps didn’t meet safety requirements in Europe.
