The EcoBoost engine is probably lightweight and 400 HP is more than enough for this thing to haul ass, as the 0-60 time implies. This isn’t “cost cutting”, it’s a smart engineering decision.

I’m glad they’re doing away with Celebrity Brain Crash and The American. They both got extremely old and repetitive after the first two episodes and to be honest I never liked Star In A Reasonably Priced Car either. I almost always skipped it because it felt like a filler to make the show longer.

Except...no. It’s not. Pikachu’s not actually talking. It’s a vision/nightmare/whatever by Ash thanks to Marshadow’s fuckery. It’s no different from that one XY episode where Darkrai made Pikachu and Meowth dream up all of the gang’s Pokémon talking to them in human language.

“Look guys, we changed it so it’s less bad. We’re the good guys now!” No you’re fucking not. It’s still a grindfest so you can sell lootboxes. Everyone who pre-orders this/buys this in the first month is a dick for enabling them.

Headline six months from now - EA announces shutdown of EA DICE.

My condolences to the Respawn employees and their families.

Of course being able to just buy the skins I want would be better...

It’s a war game. People die.

Should’ve made him into a sexy woman like Shelob. Tolkien didn’t say he couldn’t transform into a sexy woman. Could’ve got Amanda Siegfried to play her or something.

In the views of many of my fellow Need for Speed 2015 fans who played mildly competitively, there was a massive balance discrepancy left in place that had the 911 Porsche Carrera RSR 2.8 along with the Beck Kustoms F132 pretty much dominating everything in online lobbies. They became the games defacto noobtubes;…

Wagyu is just as good as Kobe, and less likely to be counterfeit.

that’s the going narrative on most websites and how we should be privileged to pay $60. I’ve already passed on 3 big hitters this holiday Forza, Shadow of War and now Battlefront 2 cause I don’t even want to deal with loot box shenanigans. If they have to raise the base price of games I say publishers should go for it…

If - *IF* - you are a huge fan of this car, then maaaaaaaaaaybe this is NP. But aside from being quirky, it isn’t all that fun to drive, it will need additional work as the miles get put on it, and because of the high miles it isn’t likely to appreciate in value for some time (likely not during your ownership period…

Here is a good video game trailer.

Plot twist: the whole Star Wars saga is built up around introducing the Porgs, so they can get their own merch, spinoffs and kids will love them.

I dunno Bill, some people buy the cars because they like to drive them. Some buy them to show off, some buy them for other reasons. I don’t really see the purpose of judging owners of a specific car as to whether or not they are “real drivers.”

Alanis, don’t take it personally. We all say things we don’t mean when we’re waiting in a service department for hours on end. Their frustration will inevitably lessen once they trade it in for something else.
