Oh yeah, DIRT 3 online was a blast. I haven’t tried DIRT 5 online yet, but now I’m not sure I should bother. Plus I’m still trying to figure out if I like the game or not. I think they maybe leaned a little too hard into the arcadey-ness for me. I’ve tried using both a wheel and the gamepad, but neither one feels Read more

GT Sport’s sounds are light years ahead of any previous GT title, so GT7 will probably have the sound department handled well now that Polyphony Digital actually understands what a car sounds like. Camera angles... well, not sure what you mean there but the only view to properly use is cockpit and GT Sport allowed Read more

Maybe they’ll make it a launch title for the PSVR2 or whatever they’re going to call it, since that’s supposedly coming next year as well... Read more

I mean honestly, 90% of what 90% of even Americans do with cars can be done with something like a Panda. Last time I went to Germany, a customer had an A class M-B and there was plenty of room for 3 adults for a short trip. Read more

There’s still a space issue. I spent the fall of 2019 walking and driving around France, Belgium, and Spain. There’s no way the roads (especially in the cities and towns) can handle everyone driving large SUVs. Yes they exist (I know a guy who drives an Escalade ESV in a small Belgian town) but they’re rare. I saw a Read more

We already have a Puma available in the U.S. though:
