    Terrible video and about 4x too long--30 seconds might have been about right, not 2 dull minutes. Still, I do like how the camera being handled by the pit crew gets it all, uh, excited.

    I can't believe i sat here and watched the whole thing, practically mesmerized.


    Maybe it's to say that they recharge very quickly? :/

    Well, I will be sure to take into account that virtual racing will drain my camera battery quickly, but also make note that a quick boost allows for a sweet turbo option. I guess it all balances out.

    @strangelove9: "There is no "e" in IMPOSTOR! Why can't you properly learn your own language???"


    While I am as big a spelling/grammar nazi as anyone, the fact is that EITHER spelling variation is considered acceptable, at least according to all three of the dictionaries with which I just consulted. However, strangelove9, those same references DO agree that there is only ONE correct spelling for "asshat"...

    @jayhawk11: What? Any company should have the right to self-servingly appropriate the image of a dead pop singer, provided of course that they are willing to pay large sums of money to his already-wealthy survivors.

    Why isn't there a playable Teen Wolf character in video games nowadays?


    That's all I ask for - the ability to play as either Teen Wolf Michael J. Fox or Teen Wolf Jason Bateman.

    @tehdahl: Yeah, "deploying" without taking the time to ensure that you've done the beta properly can lead to a lot of dis-satisfaction within your organization.


    Your organization my start looking for other ways to...
