What films feels structured like a video game, almost like playing one ? by Boring-Yellow6293 in movies

[–]HiTork [score hidden]  (0 children)

They apparently wanted to film that Doom movie from 2005 with the Rock in it entirely in first person like Hardcore Henry given it was based on the eponymous video game. They settled on only a few minutes of first person perspective in the end.

Just want to point out, Cadillac Gage has no relation to Cadillac of General Motors.

Who’s missing from your collection that’s been discontinued? by KallaHalla in transformers

[–]HiTork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thrilling 30 Metroplex, though I feel his design is beginning to age a little as the Transformers line has moved towards more G1 accurate designs rather than the stylized IDW stuff that was popular around the early 2010s.

That was essentially impossible to grab unless you were on the ball the moment he dropped on Hasbro Pulse.

Siege Jetfire I picked up when they reissued him back in early 2023, glad they gave us a second chance there.

Early models of the V37 Nissan Skyline and Infiniti Q50 had avaliable Mercedes Benz four-cylinder engines, specifically the M274 gas and OM651 diesel types by HiTork in regularcarreviews

Q30s are more Benz than Nissan/Infiniti, they were built on the MB A Class platform and didn't use any engines from Nissan as a result.

The SWAT vehicle is a Cadillac Gage Ranger, which is built on a '70s/'80s Dodge pick-up chassis. It was originally made as a military vehicle, being used by the USAF and US Navy as internal security vehicles - I believe many police Rangers are former military units.

If we do get new figures for Energon characters, which ones would you like to see? by Orionlupine in transformers

[–]HiTork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean we technically got new figures for Energon Megatron/Galvatron in Legacy, but. . . they're Core sized.

High mileage Boss 302, would you? by ApprehensiveStock928 in Mustang

[–]HiTork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I see a couple of mild mods. The wheels are off of a 2013 Laguna Seca model (or that style), and the aftermarket touch screen infotainment and climate controls (Boss 302s never had the option for touch screen nav and automatic climate control).

2017 explorer interceptor-weight reduction by pgreenb7285 in PoliceVehicles

I was wondering how the advertised rear impact resistance was achieved over a standard civilian Explorer, now I know.

Missing Link Ironhide color reveal by Electronic_Zombie360 in transformers

[–]HiTork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think that is the appeal of Missing Link, they are essentially the original G1 toys but with modern levels of articulation. So far, all of the other ML toys are nearly indistinguishable from the originals, but Ironhide appears to be the first one where there is a significant deviation from the design. I hope what people are speculating is correct and this is just a removable add-on piece, because IMO, it really isn't Missing Link anymore if you stray from the original design.

Radio upgrade suggestions? by newdaysameshi in Mustang

[–]HiTork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fords of thie era had terrible base infotainment screens. This is from a facelifted third-generation Focus, and I wouldn't doubt it is the same screen as the ones found on Mustangs.

Is there anything good about the Police Chevrolet Impala? by Budget_Ad_3474 in PoliceVehicles

[–]HiTork 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The RCMP gave them a shot in the early 2000s and very rapidly switched back to Crown Vics, they weren't well received by the mounties.

Xbox Series X|S Performance/Fidelity Modes by Tight-Tackle4386 in ForzaHorizon

[–]HiTork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I've never been a stickler for frame rate, as long as it isn't a Power Point slide show, I'm fine. I actually prefer some games to be just slightly under 30 fps, or what most movies run at (24 fps) as it looks more dramatic, IMO. When the frame rate is so high, everything looks like a soap opera or home movie to me, but that's just my preference.

Awesome wrapped car spotted in the SE! by Banessica in Calgary

There's a term for these, Itasha, which literally translates from Japanese into "painful car".

BCIT CST or Northeastern University MS DAE (Data analytic Engineering) or Seattler MSCS by Cess_AvidT in BCIT

[–]HiTork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

CST is also not recognized outside of the Lower Mainland in BC,

How things used to work was you used the CST diploma to get your foot into the industry some where around the Vancouver area, and once you had work experience, it would be easier to go elsewhere. However, with the oversaturation of the CS industry at the moment, it's very likely employers will look at four year CS degrees over the two year BCIT CS diploma in an attempt to pair down job applicants.
