The roundup has become a joke. It's not all here and is often published too late to be useful for those of us who want to record or make viewing time for races.

You're absolutely right in that respect. Microsoft has been completely tone-deaf about this. They have chosen to stand their ground on things that are making their core fan base very angry. That said, the commercial space they are staking out isn't very far from how Steam works. And everybody love Steam, right?

Shitty machine? It seems to have great specs and plenty of devs lined up. What's bad about the machine?

He wishes. Only 2 P1s in the whole world right now. That was a loaner.

No, SYNC doesn't force you to do that. It fails just as spectacularly with iOS and Android as it does with Windows Phone. I've tried mine with many mobile OSes (WinMo 6.5 too!) in the misguided belief that it was a good system just waiting for the right hardware to be connected. Nope. It is just shit. I would buy

That's a sexy car.

Flared fenders, a splitter, and some ridiculous wheels. It's a clean looking car, but there's nothing remarkable about it. It's not as if this Mr. Vengeance (really?) is the next Walter de Silva, he just did that same body mods that thousands of teenage gearheads make every year.

Behind enemy lines? Look, I've got deployed friends who have their consoles with them, but they don't go on frickin' patrol with them. That is the stupidest damn thing I've heard. Aside from that nonsense, it's remarkable how connected deployed troops can be these days. Perhaps these idiots should discuss the

Yes! Having women troops as an option could only make the game better. Maybe have a "men only" option for all the lads who are scared of women.

Oh, I'm aware that they said that, but they also claimed that Horizon was going to preserve the physics of Motorsport, but it didn't - it kinda sucked. Turn 10 is a business and if Horizon did substantially better than Motorsport, then they would substantially change Motorsport to be more like that, regardless of the

Well, in this video they've matched it with the forthcoming Maclaren P1, which is intended to be the true heir to the F1.

Hardcore (fairly) racing is a niche market, but it definitely drives some sales. The details regarding Forza 5 will absolutely determine my next console purchase. If it's true to the Forza Motorsport series, I'll pick up an Xbox One. If they make it more like Forza Horizon, I'll go back to Gran Turismo.

Pirelli doesn't cave to the teams. They cave to the requests of the client who gave them the contract: Formula 1. Things are, more or less, just the way F1 wants them to be. F1 wants an adjustment, they ask their vendor to make the change and that's it.

Why the contempt for "Gentleman Racers" at the start of the article? I feel like most of us here would, if we could afford it, love to fall in that category. We don't imagine that we're pro-caliber drivers, but given the funds, we would certainly put them towards racing regardless of whether our talent is great or

I see what you did there.

I still like their cars. It's just that one feature that sucks.

I stopped being interested in this man's opinion when I saw the word "Mansory" in his list of cars. Then there's the fact that the man's so insecure that he even prints this list of cars. Ugh.

Then don't buy a Ford. Sync users are all too familiar with problems that can only be fixed by a reset. Can't switch to the radio? Easy fix, at the next stoplight just turn off the car, remove the key, and open the door (required to actually shut off the Sync system). After you start the car again things'll be

As someone who bought a Ford with Sync, I can't wait. I spent an awful lot of money for a shitty, unreliable system that - at it's very best - cripples the functionality built into my phone. In the end I gave up and simply ignore all of the "features" of Sync and allow it to be nothing more than a bluetooth

AC is the most important thing to worry about at Willow Springs. Last time I was there it was a 117 degree (F) August day and I was wearing a black canvas bike jacket doing laps on the kart track sitting on a sweltering shifter for 6+ hours. I easily lost 5 pounds that day.
