    I just wish they did more to capture the look of cel animation, instead of using this weird cross between cel and 3D. I get that not every game can look lije Dragonball FighterZ - thr method Arcsys used there is too time consuming and only works when you have a camera that isn't controlled by the player, but this

    It’s done it’s job. It could be argued that the main point of the Prius was to get people to pay attention to plug-in hybrids, specifically Toyota’s plug-in hybrids, and it seems people are doing just that.

    He’s sponsored by Orlen, the Polish gas company.

    This now means that Alfa's lineup consists solely of drivers who got their start with Sauber, including two of its most notable ones (Kubica and Raikkonen). 

    But is it actually based on a Supra, or is it a Supra shell on top of Dome’s GT300 Mother Chassis as is the case for the (class winning) GT300 GT86s? 

    Can't have gotten it from Maul. The early Rebellion took it from him around 2BBY, and then it was handed back to the Mandalorians. 

    A splinter group of Mandalorians exiled to the moon of Concord Dawn after a civil war which lead to House Kryze’s ascendancy,

    Just realized that, had that happened, 2005 would have been a damning year for the track considering that the 2005 US GP happened as well.

    I’m guessing it’s that uncomfortable so that aging boomers will avoid it like the plague, keeping them from ruining Indian’s image the same way they did Harley.

    It should not, as the game didn’t come out in 2019.

    CP.

    Translation: “we don’t think we can make effective use of that $175 million as much as Redbull and Mercedes-Benz can."

    I figured he kept the British accent so that it would be different enough from Doug Cockle’s take, while still being familiar. That said, I could swear there were a couple of times where he said “fuck it” and went full Cockle.

    Pascal wouldn't even need to be physically present on set. 

    While Traviss’ Mandos were nowhere near the Yuzahn-Vhong, we’ve seen enough issues and backlash against her work (and not just in Star Wars, but in Halo as well) to see that she has issues. It’s enough that I’ve seen other fans state that “Traviss spits on anyone who started reading with Timothy Zahn.”

    Doubtful, they’ve had the opportunity to bring him when he was actually active (pre-Sarlacc) in the previous show, but they didn't. And bringing him back now could simply end up being a slap to the face of fans, considering the Fett's current status as not being Mandalorians (by George's own decree) 

    They’re probably at the point where they’re openly fighting the Separatists. Also, considering they’re in their blue armor, this may not be the same core group (Gar Saxon, Rook Kast, etc.) who followed Maul’s Shadow Collective beyond the events of the series. Heck, that group looks to have sided with the Empire,

    Traviss’ stuff started out decent, but near the end she had devolved into writing Mandalorians as a race of Marty Stus while actively contradicting everything authors of other Star Wars books were writing (well not really, can’t contradict something you never read), derailing characters created by other creators, and

    At the same time, that (as well as someone else playing the character Favreau voiced) opens up the possibility of other Mandalorian characters from the animated shows showing up. Say, Sabine once again voiced by Tiya Sircar despite being acted by someone else. 

    It's not like she can call him "Mando" you know, for obvious reasons.
