I just don’t want to be navigating while going 200mph. The big goofy arrow barriers are part of the Burnout experience, and Paradise not having them to keep me on track kills it for me.

Also, I embrace Takedowns, but reject Traffic Checking. This is the way. It’s all about the tiny pinpricks of light in the distance rapidly becoming metal walls of death. If you’re not in the oncoming lane, that’s not Burnout

Christopher Lee.

Saruman, Count Dooku, Sherlock, Rasputin and a whole army of Draculas.

I just can’t reconcile the guy that has to be told to tone it down a bit by Darth Vader, to the pussy he becomes in that show.

And even that is a masterpiece compared to the Obi Wan series…

I think Hot Pursuit played more like Burnout than Burnout Paradise for me.

Although the series peaked at Burnout 3.

How dare you slight the cohesion and vision of the Whatever Sony Has The Rights To Cinematic Universe?

They don’t half nip your plums though

Yeah, but I have to stick my face right up close and slowly move it away to do so.

Phone/tablet screens work best for it.

Something something Jews controlling the weather with chemtrails all praise Trump.

Next task: put in into an actual cartridge so you can play them on a real Gameboy Color.

I’ve had a few games come with a handful of items for some reason, and very quickly learned to never use them.

Pre order now and ruin the game!

His old one was very similar, but a darker colour so we called him The Fall Guy.

Or rather the few of us in the office old enough to remember that show did.

So do a lot of other governments, to be fair. It’s one of those industries that employs a lot of people, and it’s always bad press to close it when a bit of money could have kept it. Certainly cheaper than putting thousands of people on benefits.

Plus there’s subsidies for domestic sales as well. The UK at least had a grant for plug in cars that they ended a few years ago, presumably just to get the infrastructure up and running.

But then the new vehicle price is neither here nor there in the long term, since most people drive used vehicles anyway. What matters is how many vehicles trickle down to the masses, and whether wear on the battery is a concern. Some of the early smaller models didn’t have great batteries to start with, but as a daily driver to the shops and work it’d probably be fine. For some reason the conversation always drifts over to “but what about that one time you drove across the state” or “remember that time you transported a fridge”, as if that’s something people can’t work around for the once a year they do it.

Oh no! The type of capitalism where we have to compete!

Make it go away, Daddy Trump!

My boss in the UK got one. In bright red. It looks like he’s driving a fucking fire engine.

I think the last few years has left them struggling with the reality that landlords and supermarkets also have that concept, and when it’s a choice between having a roof, food, or entertainment, then they’re way down the list.

I’m unconvinced they can find a replacement for him that touches the nerve of all those hateful loons at once. Who are they going to have? JD Vance and his eyeliner?

The next election they’d play the “Do it for Him” card, but I can’t see them queuing round the block to vote for anyone else. They voted for Donald because even in their politically sheltered lives, they’d heard of him and seen him on TV. As somebody who watched Boris Johnson rise to power, it really is as fucking dumb as that.

They should put it on gofundme.com

I’m surprised it isn’t just Elon typing really fast at this point.

Wait, New Zealand’s top export is evaporated milk?
