Staff Writer at Jalopnik. 2017 Fiesta ST. Wishes NASCAR was more like Daytona USA.

PC3 isn’t bad, and actually handles very well with a pad. (Better than either Forza game, I’d argue.) But it also didn’t feel all that fresh, and in my experience had issues with PC performance. Also, it’s more along the arcade spectrum than FM or GT. Read more

Out of curiosity, how did you find the current 3 compared to your prior-gen one? Read more

You are in my exact situation, right down to the Fiesta! Read more

Alien Front! Wish I could have played it. Propellor Arena looked like so much fun, didn’t it?  Read more

Phenomenal. Love it when an opener just owns the night and it seems like they did exactly that. Read more

Can you believe those weirdos buy anything else Read more

Fogbound” is probably my favorite song of theirs and I was introduced to it — and them — through Ridge Racer V as well. Lots of good remixes for that song too.

Microsoft has expressed a willingness to release its games in as many places as possible, and Sony has even done that with MLB The Show on Xbox and Switch now. Turn 10 would be a cool deal, but I think NASCAR’s real hope here is to shack up with iRacing. iRacing already has NASCAR within it and the two parties enjoy a Read more

You’re actually not the first person I’ve heard express that you’re more or less OK with the economy as it was. I think players that aren’t as serious about Gran Turismo — whether they’re more “casual” or save their effort for a more realistic sim like iRacing — aren’t as hungry for all the cars.

I laughed my ass off the first time I got an invitation while doing the Cafe to buy a Veyron I think it was? Like at that early point in the game, before all the high-credit races came in the update, how many players did Polyphony really expect to have the money to buy that car? And even if you could afford it you Read more

I came here to say this. Also, tall. Specifically at the back. There’s almost zero slope to that roofline. Read more

Honestly I think he was lucky to finish where he did, and should be satisfied with the result. He was clearly pushing like hell all race, he went super deep into Turn 1 on one lap and narrowly missed a collision, and was fighting it out of another corner later in the race. Personally, I’m just so happy he finished the Read more

I avoid F1 merch completely, they can indeed GTFO for those prices. Read more

And like I get that, there was a ton of Hayden merch here, which is totally justified and understandable. Simoncelli too. It’s just glaring to me when riders who are here now — and winning — are just sort of ignored. Read more

Fabio’s dressing for the weekend and frankly, I think we should all live by his example Read more

IIIIII am chiming in from COTA, where I am for the MotoGP race.

I totally missed it when it came out, and I wish I hadn’t. Been on the look out for a copy of that and Sega Rally Championship, which is unfortunately astronomical these days.
