What's that vehicle you are always delighted to encounter whenever you play a video game?
I, myself, love the DMC-12, even the mutant ones from Hotline Miami and GTA.
I lament to write that those two Delos from RE's 2 and 3 were destroyed in a nuclear blast (May your stainless steel coats shine forever and never rust and may your doors spread like wings to take flight among the angels).

Why is that thing so popular? It's such an ugly car.
Back to the future. Also when it was designed the guy that had it built had a huge advertising campaign for those wing doors. But when everyone bought them they immediately returned them because they couldn't get out of their car when they parked in the garage so all in all it was a flop of a car design.
I like normal-looking sedans and hatchbacks, car customization needs its limits so you won't get SR/GTAO-tier abominations like pearlescent super cars with hotrod wheels, super/sports cars in generals aren't my thing.
It was made by forward-thinking industrialist John Delorean who spent 5 fucking years from 1976 to 1981 in R&D on this thing before taking it to market. It was then made famous for Back to the Future. John Delorean eventually went to prison in the late 1980s over a cocaine deal setup by the FBI who believed he had criminal intent to deal the drug to prop up the financially struggling Delorean Motor Company with his famous words before going to jail "…would you buy a used car from me?!.."
The car is one of those things that built an entire fucking legend around it that became bigger than itself.
There's something alluring in 80's car form factor.
Ugly?! Mister man, you take a look at those tail lights and tell me it doesn't look like the dance floor at a classy nightclub where you can meet the 10/10 love of your life in a sea of 9/10's…
Oh, who am I kidding? It looks like the dance floor of a mexican discotheque/bowling alley where every woman there is a dirty Mexican whore that's riddled with venereal diseases. You're right.
Upon a skim of Wikipedia I got some details wrong. The DMC-12 wasn't in development for 5 years. It was in development from 1973 to '80, that's 8 fucking years in development. The man has ambitions. I think that's the biggest reason people made the DMC-12 legendary. The car itself was rather mediocre, but I think it was the fact it was made by people who actually tried that people appreciate.
John Delorean went off to do basically nothing else with his life after the DMC. He filed a patent for a Monorail system that never ended up happening.
I know some of you just straight up want to fuck certain cars,go on,say it,get it out there,nobody is going to judge.
That sounds hilarious.
It tries to be a cool-looking car, but it ends up looking disgusting. It's like somebody from the 50's went to the 80's then was asked to draw what the cars looked like from memory.
You're not wrong but my tastes are expensive so I try not to dwell on it.
The whole parking lot thing was just a bullshit rumor. The butterfyl-wing doors are actually designed so that when they fly open they do not stretch out beyond the car body anymore than a regular door would. You can see this in photos if you look up Deloreans with doors wide open vs other cars
On the subject of Deloreans, the design is fairly forward thinking, in the sense that it just stands out in every way, whether it's in a good or bad way, you cannot deny that back in the 80s, it was all about forward thinking and design, It came down to this optimism for the new millennium.
nut up or shut up faggot,show the class
...
That sounds more like the 70's than the 80's. Then again, the car was released in '81 so maybe some of that late 70's vibe was still going around.
fucking lamborghinis, nigga
Gotta love how chunky Nissans are. It's like somebody tried to make a Jeep but halfway through decided to make a regular car instead.
I imagine a lambo in human form would be a really high class cunty woman who would get pissed and cheat on you if you didnt get her the most expensives wines and such
so,eh
If you wanted a loyal pure waifu you'd be looking at something like a German consumer car, but they aren't very pretty most of the time. In fact they're often really ugly.
eh,something that looks okay over something that looks great and is a bitch,you know.
die
I'm way ahead of you on that front.
Just the best vehicle passing through
Ferraris, I have the biggest boner for them thanks to Outrun. Sadly none of the car fucker community seems to have porn of them.
Hellbringer looks cooler than the Mad Dog and Timberwolf. too bad its stats are bad.
Best thing about a mediocre game are the vehicles
But user that's not an image of the Sunder
A heavy mech catchall that can do anything you want it to, if you ask nicely…assuming you can fucking find a chassis anywhere. Those goddamn things are basically collector's items in the Inner Sphere by now.
It's a shit car. Extremely underpowered motor that doesn't stands to its "sports car" title, minimal crash safety due to X-frame, the windows don't slide down entirely and you have a tiny port instead, the door seals can't stop anything more serious than a drizzle so don't go to car wash. If you want to own a sports car that's classic and is actually good, get a Caterham 7 instead.
People who delight in seeing X product in a fucking video game instead of hoping for something fantastical they've never seen are really consumer whores of the highest degree.
Racing fans are autists and nostalgia whores, with all due respect that is.

I agree with you wholeheartedly save for the following stipulation: simulators. I mean hardcore motherfucking simulators. Something designed to actually represent what the product is in real life. What if the product is several thousand dollars? Maybe I'd like to try it out first. Then I'm fine with it being a real-world product. But yeah, in a digital world where I can have a fucking landshark gun, I don't want a beretta.
Joke's on you.
Jacket's car is actually not a Delorean
It's the history people who use Kickstarter have forgotten in a nutshell, and speaking of, has any game had the Tucker 48?
On the flip side, if they use things that actually existed then you're less likely to get abominations like those guns that people repost.
igcd.net
A few, plus Choro Q, wasn't expecting that.
L.A. Noire has a Tucker, yeah.
I dunno, that series seems to have an eclectic collection of cars. I could see it happening. Also that's a neat site.
Skylines were slim instead of chunky and still pure sex.
Nigger the 70s was the era of wood paneling on cars. If you like that shite…
...
It looks like somebody put a car on top of another car.
...
True, it's a mutant with pop-up headlights like the Deluxo from Vice City.
I like the Son's Car from the sequel, too. Unlike the Acado GT, it actually looks true to the real life form of the Trans Am.
Besides cars, Battletech-style Mechs are neat. I'm not a very big fan of Gundam-style ones.
Boring as shit but the thing you use in Ground Zeroes, the basic military no top jeep, is always going to make me fall in love since it's so hard to turn over and it gets where it needs to go.
lol just ls swap it
...
what are you, a fucking commie? get a job and spend some money you worthless NEET
Nice get but you're missing some music.
...
what a beauty of a plane
If I had money I would buy this car.
...
Better one.
is this thread where vehicle porn goes
...
Nice try to deflect, red scum.
I'm not even disgusted, this shit is hilarious. That comic in particular must have taken one hell of an imagination.
there is more
Hellbringer is a good glass cannon. May have shit armour but it's got AMS, ECM, BAP, Targetting Computers, the thing is absolutely fucking lethal.
For what purpose?
80's car aesthetics were objectively the best of all time.
Also
And finally
is that a mech for ants?
GTA IV nailed those, it has some of the best fictionalized cars ever. Shame most of the designs in V that were not carried over were butt ugly in addition to shit vehicle variety (GTA V might have the most vehicles in a GTA game but too few "normal" cars).
The 1920s called. They want to see you in their speakeasy for a little… chat.
It's a good chassis, not for the price they're asking right now though.
Talk to my turbo.
The only good racing game I've played with a miata is Sega GT 2002
Saints Row 2 has the best cars out of any "gta-likes/clones" for sure!
Though flamer from gta1 was pretty damn neat too.
2004 Toyota Camry. I always enjoy seeing my car in a game. Not sure why.
...
Try this, get up some good pictures of them, videos even, and go at it. It'll feel awkward at first but that will soon fade.
It's a liberating feeling.
So I guess you are like a 5 or 6 on the Kinsey Scale?
t. AW11 SC owner
Oh so you're a faggot?
...
hard to get over how underpowered they were though compared to today
That was decent~
Manchild spotted.
I'm pleased to see just any older cars in any game. Driver 2 and Driv3r were great, they featured a wide variety of old cars from all over the world in their natural habitat.
Trueno looks like the dullest shit ever. It's just a glorified corolla.
Just buy a fucking miata or beat up c4 corvette.
holy shit, I came to say that I want that car in real life. it was the best. fast but not too fast for the turning radius. Just perfect.
tbh I enjoyed driving my 90 hp shitbox more than my 200hp shitbox
It used to be cheaper than either before the meme status.
If only gta 5 was a good game.
I admit I had fun griefing with it though.
How's it feel to own the second best snap-oversteer machine?
have you driven an sw20? I'm looking to buy one soon to feed my cheap 90's JDM car addiction. I'll wait and get a first gen impreza or s13/14 in the meantime if I'm prone to kill myself working on it.
Restrain yourselves, anons. Don't go full degenerate.
...
Half expecting Ratbat to show up now.
The entire show is generic garbage high school drama shit that never goes anywhere with some decent downhill drifting scenes. Season 1 is tolerable but after that the show stinks to hell. Only thing that makes it worth watching at that point is the Eurobeat.
...
Fuck anyone who tries to say how to post your shitposts.
...
Its just as bad as most other MR and RR layout cars, the only reason why the MR2 is known for it is that because its a Toyota the people who reviewed them and the people who brought them weren't aware of such handling characteristics.
No
MR2's are quite under-appreciated and as a result are quite cheap for the money while still having a decent aftermarket for them. Just remember to get a factory turbo as the non-turbo gearbox is weak. One thing to watch out for though is working in the engine bay in an MR layout car isn't a nice experience.
Most ones you will find will have been thrashed, those that aren't will cost a lot.
As above, but even worse because drifting.
How do we make the Taliban picking ford trucks over Toyota trucks a meme? Seem like the Taliban don’t like Toyota because it’s isis brand.
I've always had a boner for the Lotus Esprint ever since I was a kid playing Test Drive.
I don't want to fuck them, but riding around in beat up old muscle car in saints row or other gta styled games is comfy as fuck. Especially if it's snowing.
Somebody needs a webm of a refugee raping a car.
What a gay ass thread
Seriously, why the fuck are you posting boring ass cars?
This thread used to be boring
It still is :^)
What is this gay ass shit?
Is it even in vidya?
I'm done
for now
...
Pls don't ruin car time /o/ is dead here ;__;
Spotted the underage fag
see
People born in 2000 can post on this board nowadays :^)
Never got around to playing older space games like Freepace, Tie Fighter and Freelancer since I mostly played Real Life Flight sims, I'm going to catch up with them soon since I finally found my Logitech Extreme 3D joystick from 2004 and its working flawlessly
Freespace is pretty much the God Emperor of the Space Shooter genre. If you haven't played it already we weep for you. Mass Effect writers pretty much ripped off the story for Freespace when it came to the Reapers and Freespace Open manages to look better than most modern space games.
They actually ripped off Serious Sam.
Remember when Lotus got involved too during Colin Chapman's mental breakdown?
Ford Ranger : IT”s good enough for the Taliban
Don't fight it
Ironically in my opinion has since become one of the most underrated games of its era thanks to its corporate shilling and then subsequent burial. The car selection was awesome as you said, mainly due to the rusty European shitboxes that never appeared in anything else, the damage model was great, the cities were impressively detailed for their time and the gameplay was nowhere near as broken as it had been made out to be by those who felt burnt over the paid reviews. Trust me, I played the fucking thing exclusively for 6 months at one point in time. Needed two discs due to weird glitches persisting on both, one wouldn't let me do Free Roam in Nice and the other would freeze halfway beyond a certain mission, but the fact of the matter is either I'm one lucky son of a bitch that is easily entertained or the game really wasn't that bad.
One thing I've never seen in any other game since is that in the event your vehicle explodes, it actually disintegrates into separate sections in a shower of parts that made the grenade launcher the most fun weapon to use in the whole game. Plus they made it so you could re-enter a vehicle's disembodied cabin and "drive" it like a complete and utter retard which amused me way more than it should've done.
Plus it had the ability to make your own movies, something that took GTA another 5 years and a whole console generation to do.
Extra points if you blew up a car and got in before the grenade exploded so you could chill in the wreckage. The game is a buggy broken mess but a fun buggy broken mess, the game never fails to entertain me with its glitches.
Driver allowed you to make your own movies since the first one. I wasted a lot of hours cutting replays of cool chases.
30's were great times. When car makers thought aerodynamics mattered for a car that tops out at 100 mph, moreso than their dogshit 16 cyllinder engines that just barely scratch the 3 digit horsepower milestone.
I envy you. I just got a replacement a few weeks ago and it's already having calibration problems.
Zeppelins are cool. I wish they were still being made and flown around in.
