Wreckfest for Playstation (might be on steam too) is so fun.

It is and it probably is on sale soon. Or I think it's on game pass for PC as well.

I don't think she likes the special sauce, Rick.


My wife is a "Mario, exclusively" kind of gamer, but in eight years the one exception is Wreckfest. The sound of her laughing at a crowd of lawnmowers bouncing off her bus is my favorite sound in the world.

Wreckfest rules.

That is actually pretty cool, the BEV bike is the hardest one to develop of the proposed categories. I'll try to keep an eye out if the event is publicly broadcasted.

I dug through the websites and found this:

https://www.dakar.com/en/dakar-world/therace/broadcast-2022

its a check local listings thing, I guess. Racing series need better dedicated streaming options for their global fanbase.

Second type of mission 1000 vehicle here.

@coconono standard dakar is over on eurosport here but special events like this do not get broadcasted

edit:
Today's dakar video is puzzling
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LN8DZxzHYgM
Have there been that many spectators death to justify such a video? AFAIK it's usually motorbike pilots that croaks on track.

and also the third special type of vehicle, hydrogen dune buggy (bleh)

Also a shitload of retires and punctures, apparently thanks to a mostly rocky road compared to last year.

I've been following the cheeky highlight vids. Seems like a good time but I think I've got more an emotional attachment to the video production people than the racers. Middle of nowhere. In the desert. Dang.

i watched it on pc with adblock and it didn't have ads, so it was an improvement on the normal formula e us watching experience

it was a bad race, which is unfortunate because it drew what will almost certainly be the biggest crowd they get this season lol

Aw hunny, these came out GREAT!
God awful conditions in San Francisco for Supercross last night. They had to shorten both races because the mud was so bad it was gunking up the bikes. Just terrible.

I tried to follow through the highlights videos but I had to give up because I could not stand the puns. Which is a shame because normally I like those commentators, but they seem to be having some kind of pun competition in every video for some reason instead of providing any interesting insights.

yeah, the puns are fun but jeez I have no attachment to these desert maniacs. I'm too busy wincing at said verbosity to really get engaged with each team.

against my better judgement, i subscribed to peacock for a month for daytona to see if it sucks less. i last tried it in 2021 for the indy 500 and it was an absolutely miserable experience so clearly i am a dumbass.

i guess i'll report in after (or more likely, during) the 24 hours as to how much it does or doesn't suck.
