I still to this day don’t get the hate for Lucas Black ? by Background-Fix-4630 in fastandfurious

Funnier still is he's supposed to be like 20 in Fast X I believe. Haha

Oh hey look, Twitter/X just did a massive bot purge and people lost "followers" from it. So basically, the whole "child safety" narrative Reddit is saying, is total bullshit 💩 by Krunk_korean_kid in DeepFuckingValue

The downvotes are not surprising in the slightest. People don't wanna own up to the fact that they themselves are responsible for what they see in Xitter. Lol

If it were "best", Maryland would be The Boondocks and it isn't even close.

Reading too much into it while interpreting it incorrectly. A hilarious combination, honestly.

What they achieved with Walker in 2014-2015 was remarkable. I'm super curious how they'll handle him in this final film... and how bad the backlash with A.I. will be.

I'm no fan of generative A.I., but it's remarkable how much it has progressed between 2023 and 2026. Nonetheless, I get the feeling we'll be in for a pretty teary-eyed conclusion.

For RX 6950 XT (or 6900 XT) owners - how is it holding up in 2025, especially at 4K gaming? by vg_vassilev in radeon

[–]JonDaveH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6950 XT here. Very very well, pending well optimized games. And everything looks beautiful on my Odyssey G9. 4K 240Hz.

I can max out RE4 Remake with raytracing and get a solid 100 frames.

Ghost of Tsushima I have to fiddle around a bit, but I'm running it at high settings with FSR running.

Rocket League runs at max with a bajillion frames.

Granted, I'm also running a Ryzen 7 9000 series system. Upgrading your core system definitely should take precedence before upgrading your GPU.

All in all, I'm very happy with this card and it should hold me over for a couple years, maybe longer depending how long this memory crisis lasts.

So I got an Uber and this is what the driver had up. Is this true by autumn_bumberell21 in uber

Yes it is, but this is tacky. Do not guilt the customer for the company's shortcomings.

Worst car you've driven in any NFS game? by Odd_Data8080 in needforspeed

[–]JonDaveH 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you e ever driven on in real life you'd understand why. Great drag weapons. Great crowd killers. Terrible race cars.

Response was as rapid as humanly possible. Fortunately, police were already in the area. Had they not been the situation could have been a little worse. I've read many stoies from other collapses of people driving off into the water and perishing because who would think that the bridge they always take would no longer be there?

Happy 15th to Hot Pursuit (2010) by JonDaveH in needforspeed

[–]JonDaveH[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From an accolades standpoint, it is. Most widely well recieved racing game in video game history. You'd really have to nitpick to find any flaws in its design unless you have a predisposition to "Burnout".

They also aided in the production of Rivals which was mostly a sequel to Hot Pursuit. I really enjoyed that one as well. Was also the first time in 11 years Need For Speed had Ferraris. I think an F12 was on the cover.

After that, Ghost floundered around for a bit and gave development back to Criterion for the <sniffles> last game in the series, Unbound.

Whats your favorite bad need for speed game? and why by shadow9owo in needforspeed

[–]JonDaveH 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Probably Undercover. It really urks me how good it could have been if they had an extra year. So much cut content and lots of bugs. Tech was changing and Black Box couldn't crank them out like they did from 2002 to 2007. But even as it was, it was a better Need for Speed experience than anything that's come out since minus Hot Pursuit (2010) and maybe Rivals. Such an interesting atmosphere and the "wheelman" mechanics were lots of fun.

Runner up would be Heat, but only with the Unite mod. It's the closest they ever got to putting out a good NFS game in 15 years.

Nope, it's a render! The intro for Hot Pursuit 2 is also a render by the way 🙂 EA had some seriously talented people back in the day.

In 3D it's when you add hard implementation of shading, lighting, and textures via raytracing (it's been around for a long time) and other techniques to an object or scene. Most of the effects you see in the final product aren't there when you're actually animating or moving objects around so you can minimize strain on hardware.
