I remember a long time ago on one of Kotaku’s older reviews that they basically said outside of Mario kart nobody at Kotaku was into racing games, and by extension cars. This is hearsay of one guy working on his rather unreliable memory so don’t take what I say as gospel. Would explain alot here if true, though.

I like that its kinda a “baby” version of the Bronco R. At least with that paint. 

I find it kinda funny that they lifted the ban on Nazi symbols in games before this. 

The fact that it doesn’t make some unnecessary sci-fi sound when those open saddens me way more than it should. 

One thing I heard was that they made Aunt May so ancient in the Raimi films was to help take away from the fact that they had Toby in his late 20s playing a high-school graduate.

Cool to see something neat came from those shark cards.

That opening bit was like a pair of stupid dogs tear-ass’ing it out the front door and going full zoomies in the back yard. 

I think this is the first QOTD that I unanimously agree with. At worst with sime of these I was like “...yeah, why not? Its cool.”

I’ll take “Games that really could’ve used a sequel” for $500, Alex.

It really does look like a baby BAC Mono.

“Chip Robinson” is what I’d name the protagonist of a Hot Shots-style comedy flick about Racing.

Wasn’t Fallout 4 officially announced a couple months before its release?

I’m very likely gonna be moving to Australia in the near-ish future. Just the thought of seeing something as once-mythical as a RHD mid-engine corvette is the stuff dreams are made of. At least in my uber-car-nerd mind. 

It looked slower in general. I know they’re full-on racecars and the Senna’s a roadcar (a loose definition of a roadcar, but still), but compared to the Senna that Mitsubishi was trying to reach freakin’ orbit.

I wonder if while writhing on the floor he just silently whispered to himself “...worth it...”

I completely agree with you. But good lord, look at the first shot again in the trailer with the glitching crosswalk. I’m expecting the Batmobile to come screaming around the corner.

The folks who call these games Arkham clones are full of shit, and I’m confident that won’t change when this game comes around. But good lord did this trailer take place in Manhattan or Gotham?

I can at least imagine they hustling, considering, well, past events. 

I mean cool but all that time and effort just to make a moderately smaller model of the real thing seems pointless, why waste so much time on a glorified lawn ornament that—-holy shit it actually flies.

With the Maverick inbound and actually looking to be a hit, and the Santa Cruz...existing, this isn’t as gutless as many other startups talking big game. But it still very much deserves a spot in the “believe it when I see it” lot.
