True about the deals you can get on the GTI. Not sure that the GTI has better handling though. They’re both going to understeer, but the R is going to have the Haldex system to save it in places where the GTI can’t. Also, the handling must be pretty good (or maybe the RS3 just blows?) in order for it to keep up with

Maybe if you get a bare bone GTI with the performance pack you’re getting more of your money’s worth, but if you are comparing fully load GTI to a fully loaded Golf R, the price isn’t that far off. And you get AWD with 70 more horsepower. That’s quite a bit of extra performance so I wouldn’t call it hair splitting.

So VW is getting its money back right?

You mean in 8 days?

I think this is exactly hot hatch. Think GTI, Focus ST, Fiesta ST, etc. Actually that would put it a little above hot hatch and closer, but still a ways off from hyper hatch (Golf R, Audi RS3, Focus RS, TypeR).

Or you could pick up a Golf R and not have to rid yourself of it when you get a family (possibly, depending on your financial status later down the road).

In pretty sure “a low cost of ownership” does not a BMW make. Or any German for that matter.

Ssshhhh! Don’t let the secret out.

I thought that might be it, but the way they kept going made me not too sure.

They were super awesome until I got to episode 4 and they didn’t realize the guy driving the bus was the Stig. And then they called him the guy from “the Matt LeBlanc car show.” They lost some cool points with that one.

Haha. Those memory walls (Blockhead). I remember my brother and I drawing with a dry erase marker on my tube TV to get it perfect. Ah, nostalgia.

But...but now I don’t even want it for free. I jumped over to Steam after reading this and was like, “...is it on Steam?” Just to realize that it was already in my library, replacing the originals. Boo.

Or just put it in reverse and run the dude over.

Yes. Yes. And, no, but I do want 4K Bluray playback with HDR (which sucks that this is missing that). I also currently don’t have a PS4.

The Game Boy SP actually didn’t have a back light, but a front light. It took them one more iteration to add both the back and front light in.

This is why I love my VW. The dash has a dusk mode that lights up nearing dusk, but as it actually starts to get dark as the sun goes down, the lights get dark as well. If you’re in the cabin and haven’t turned on the lights, you’ll know because you won’t be able to see the dash. Instead of having to pay attention to

Have there been any WW1 FPS games? If so, any good ones? WW1 is NOT WW2 and a surprising amount of people who enjoyed the WW2 shooters have been asking for a WW1 game forever, or so it feels like. I think those are the people who are freaking out about the new battlefield.

If only Ubisoft and EA would learn. God I hate U Play and Origin.
