I think there are some problems with the pricing of games that publishers need to confront to improve percieved value. So many games are released in a state that we can politely call “rough.” This means the early adopters are the people who get the absolute worst value for a game. It’s buggy, has balance issues, and

Now that all the options that will leave you praying that the 2 chargers within 50 miles somehow work... take the government money, take the lower purchase price, take the longer range, take the better performance and get yourself a Tesla. I guess you’ll have the long range Y so that you have taller sidewalls and

Try that in a small town!

I guess lots of people prefer presumably reliable (Honda’s turbos in recent years are nowhere near the standard of the motors they made 20 years ago.) car over the dynamically superior one. I mean, there are a lot more Lexus ES hybrid sedans than there are Lexs IS 500s. And the ES is just an upgraded dynamically

I’ve played through Cyberpunk twice. Perhaps a better question would have been, since you just offered some more points supporting my statement/rhetorical question; “Can anyone name one big-budged game released across multiple platforms and hundreds of PC configurations, that didn’t need multiple patches over several

Isn’t that really the norm for any big budget PC game though? There are so many hardware variations that it’s pretty much impossible to set up a game perfectly. Even console editions with maximum 2 configurations get patched. No disrespect - bit if one doesn’t want to deal with that headache, wait a while and then

A 4090 on an ultrawide monitor with an i9 CRUSHES this game.  My Omen laptop with a 3080ti mobile is more than playable.  A lot of the people complaining have older computers than that and just need to accept that games like this also are programmed to have features that the next couple years of tech will also be able

Just good ol’ boys... never meaning no harm...

And carrying a gallon jug of water everywhere can keep you from being thirsty.  But using a water fountain means you don’t have to. And it leaves a ton of space in your bag too.  So does getting rid of the ICE engine.  My family has 2 EVs and a hybrid - so I don’t disagree with your argument completely, but the nicest

The only nit I’d pick there is that Rovers don’t look sloppily built, they break down. They look very nicely built every time they go in for repair. None of the people (I concede a small sample size) who have a Tesla have had a lot of mechanical trouble. But assembly is for sure not on Toyota levels. A PR person would

If we are to discuss things, as adults who skipped votech do, it is necessary to comment on the information in a comment and not to simply barf out an ad hominem attack (google it). I am not right or wrong because I like Teslas or don’t. Neither are you. But they do make a car that’s efficient, reasonably sized,

I really wish they’d stuck with this front end aesthetic instead of sorta generic, japanese car look of the later front ends.  Later cars were a lot easier to live with but not as cool-looking.  I feel like the current Emira, with it’s headlights, looks more like a mid engined C7 than the C8 does.

I would describe this as the first EV, and likely the first car at all, to have Habsburg Jaw.

I don’t have a German car, or a Japanese car, I just find the concept of trying to turn a built-to-price economy car into the real thing is a bit silly. If you’re saving money on it, that’s an honest bargain and great - you’re a smart shopper.  But if somehow you get tricked into thinking that your Honda Civic turbo

But if you bought the BMW, I bet it wouldn’t be a 1 series without awd, because that’s basically what this is.

I’m thinking a hovercraft covered in disco mirror driven by a Furry would be peak Burning Man.

Just a guess, but given that’s the only version of this car with appeal to enthusiasts, I’d guess that those are the easy sales and that the tougher ones will be the rest, and they’ll be 90 percent of the cars when all is said and done. Because it’s mostly a commodity car with a bit of lux.

I think it’s insane they don’t have a version of the Ridgeline with a hybrid.

I just don’t think it’s that desirable a vehicle when they put a big turbo and some suspension on built-to-price economy car. This is the kind of car people buy, because they can’t afford something like a BMW, it’s not THE BMW!

Pitch it to hollywood!
