I think this is gonna bomb simply because Statham isn't attached to it. Yeah... it'll probably suck as a movie too, but most people saw the first Transporter because it was a "hey, wasn't that guy on some British gangster movie?".

People should try SWAT 4 if you want a far more realistic take on police action. Punishments for collateral damage are high, but most of the time things go south very quick unless you plan every step ala Rainbow Six. Now... Realism has its limits, and one of the hilarious features/flaws of SWAT 4 due to its more…

Drag racing reminds me of sabre fencing. Lots of things happen very quickly and then some wins. There's none of the back and forth of the other fencing styles, but its so much more vicious for it.

Clarkson walks that fine line of being the ultimate knob that you somehow still are willing to listen to, at least for just an hour a week. The "Clarkson Persona" would be an absolute nightmare to deal with regularly. Will always like Top Gear regardless of what happens, but I can't say I blame the BBC for finally…

You can find a decent low mileage E63 for ~$50k or less, possibly even with a warranty remaining. This is for a 2010-2011 vintage car. Yeah... if I had (err... if I wanted to spend) $50k to spend on a car that's pretty damn tempting. A $60k GT-R just doesn't seem nearly as appealing, even though the want is VERY…

One one hand, its not a "random" startup. They've got people with experience making MMOs. On the other hand, one of the founders has been involved in quite a few MMOs that didn't exactly set the world on fire. He looks like like he's got a hell of a resume, but in the "we almost made it" kind of way. I think my…

I think this will be the first and last time I will see a merc ML drifting at speed. I did some low speed unintentional "drifting" (err... sliding) on some sketchy iced over roads before in an ML, but this guy takes the cake.

What gets me about the second one is not the position of the truck, its that the back wall and storefront are completely untouched. Its like the truck managed to sneak behind the barriers from the right AT SPEED and without scraping the wall or breaking any windows before pulling a hard left and slamming dead center…

Having hit 155 (ish... more like 152) in a 270HP car I can attest to that number. I definitely ran out of power (and will power) before I ran out of gearing on that car....

I inquired at a VW dealership recently if there was a way to completely disable (like physically remove or unpower) the VW tracking/safety reporting system. Both the salesman and manager gave me two blank stares and asked me why I would want to do that since I could just opt out of the service. That is how clueless…

WOW. It looks like buick may finally have a car that looks the part of the luxury line. In profile however does anyone think Merc SLS 4-door? Cuz that's all I see. Not a bad thing, but the resemblances are uncanny.

My Manual AWD Turbo Sedan Mazda got me 71-80%! Woohoo! In reality its probably somewhere in the 40-50% range. Only its rarity makes up for its general attempt at the jack of all trades master of none mentality.

ever see a late model QX56? The blob-box look has "whale" written all over it.

There's a reason quite a few 'ring rental places used to use (and may still use, I haven't been back in a few years) Suzuki Swifts as their base rental. They're fast enough to scare you but not powerful enough to kill you instantly if you're a noob on the track. Give it a slight massage with some sticky rubber,…

I wonder how much a kit (sans engine) version of this would be? What would be awesome would be a full electric version with a smallish 150HP motor (easy-ish) or two 100 HP motors (not as easy). Yeah... it would weigh close to 2000lb by the time you add batteries and electronics, but think about the torque that would…

catchy song with a funny but accurate message? That's the ultimate best PSA. we need more people like the ones who did that ad cuz that would definitely make the world a safer and happier place.

if i can find a decent 911 for under 20k then this quiz might be correct :p

Can you really call it a model of Mega Man X if he's not kitted out in X armor? Maybe that'll be a future figure...

Am I one of the few people who think she's doing a fine job in this video? Yeah... There's some cracking, but I think I can forgive that. I actually want to hear some artists (not just pop artists, any musical artist) have their voice isolated live and have it sound "good", cuz I'm not really sure what the "good"…

I hope this game can hold your attention for more than few play sessions before everything starts becoming the same. I see the potential for this to be one of the best games in a decade, but I also see a really big but really shallow sandbox. Size is one thing, but having new things to do with that size is something…
