My car actually does this. You go through a few phrases so the system can ‘learn your voice patterns’ and then you can boss it around. I press the button and say something like “Set temperature at seventy degrees” and it works. It’s kind of creepy to actually see it work for once.

Update to my own comment. According to this video, the whole permadeath thing is a lie.

Purely as an atmospheric concept, I understand the desire to tie the tension into all facets of the game. As a gamer with finite time though? Nope, pass. Not really a fan of having to (potentially) start the game all over just because I have a bad day with it and I have no save to fall back on.

Brutal Ace is right, in my eyes at least, about how a standalone artist would handle it.

Sounds like classic Elon Musk/Tesla to me: Talk a big game, generate some interest and then vanish when people want more definitive answers.

To be honest, I play Overwatch (and other games) in a party on PS4 so, even if they were saying whatever terrible thing it is they felt okay saying at that moment, I don’t actually hear it. It’s been something I’ve done since it was available so I don’t have to hear these idiots. I imagine I started using it in some…

Nice to see that money still doesn’t buy intellect. Now the question is, who is this guy going to blame when he flips into a Whole Foods?

It may be low-hanging fruit here, but does anyone else find it satisfying to see Bethesda getting sued in what appears to be a frivolous lawsuit? This particular claim seems like a stretch, but after how many times Bethesda, or their parent company, went after people for random nonsense (“Scrolls”) I can’t help but…

There’s a simple equation to answer that one:

Damn Activision, way to double (or triple by this point) down on being just an entirely new level of greedy. Forty bucks for a remastered ten year old game that you already locked away for months and then, in your infinite wisdom, doesn’t even include the map pack when you finally sell it standalone?

It looks like a Mini Cooper with botulism...

It’s not the right brand, but anyone remember that wanna-be Knight Rider show, Viper...when the car went into off-road mode? That’s what this freaky mustang made me think of.

I want to like all the new tech, but, beyond what was mentioned about helping older folks keep up on the road, I highly doubt all this technology is going to change the real problem: People just don’t care about anyone but themselves on the road.

Not understanding all the dismissal over here. It looks like Payback will be an NFS game acting like an action movie: Big set pieces, nice cars and some story sprinkled in. The transfer to a different driver was a nice touch too.

That...makes perfect sense. Seems kinda pricey for something like that though. Unless you’re boring melons every day or something.

Someone once told me you have to seal but make sure it’s not airtight...which doesn’t make sense, I know, but that’s what I was told. I just used really cheap vodka and then drank whatever the melon wouldn’t hold :P

OR:

Starting to suspect that if this were any brand dealer besides a high-end one, that this survey would come back to bite the customer on the ass. Maybe it’s just been my luck, but dealers in my area seem vindictive as all Hell.

If it’s just going to be the same tired “Some Celebrity Dying instead of an interview” or that whole “The American” thing again, count me out.
