Anyway I found it good fun, Cage just about pulls off acting twenty years younger (they really need to invest in CGI de-aging ...

Re: Forza Horizon 6

That does look like fun, BeamNG is up to 14 months on my Steam wishlist. Probably should've spent the money I wasted on C&C remastered getting it.

How much of the exterior design of EVs (variations on a bar of soap) is down to the aero requirements needed to make this thing that weighs so much but needs to get x number of miles from the batteries?


Mass is definitely a far lower consideration because you can recover some of that energy ...
