I saw a video of someone role-playing in a weird 2D space game and it turns out that there's a tiny dedicated community all playing this game religiously to the point of knowing all the deepest technical aspects of the games mechanics.
      I have a couple of hundred hours in SS13/14 now and I still cannot perform most tasks but the tight community makes the RP and chaos aspects much more fun because you just know the only people seeking out this experience are like minded and interested in it.

So, it probably is just Lynx under the F1 name - lol. Also, "Nyooom" is the proper sound you make to mimic cars racing by at high speed. Get it right, Lynx... Er, I mean, F1...

    (I'm kidding, any sotwe in any format is a good thing and please don't overburden yourselves with more work, but I definitely would love more casual chat over any game--ellen talking about the onion hotel mobile game was still one of the sotwe classics imo, so.....yeah, any game!)

    Oh dang, poor Mike getting sprayed by fragrances for our entertainment, at least he got to talk about motorsport on Outside Xtra and luke and Ellen listened to him, whilst spraying him with the aforementioned fragrances (did I mention they are F1 themed). I honored to say Luke that you are now one of us, aka a motorsport enthusiast, I could not be more happy and/or proud. Thank you Mike for bringing Luke into the fold (and for allowing yourself to be sprayed by perfumes for it). Also, nice Mario Kart 64 menu music going on in the background, I like very much, such nostalgia. Big shoutout to Producer Jon for taking part in all this and putting this all together so neatly. Also, Andy with the cameo and the shade, damming for the fragrances of F1.

    Every single time I watch any of the Oxboxtra vids on cars, I'm reminded I need to buy one of the F1 games or maybe GT7. I know F1 22 has an assortment of bugs, but they also changed things from F1 21, so I'm not sure which to get. What I love with the fragrance section is, again, the Top Gear vibes that I so very much miss. When they'd fool around with various official merch from Porsche and Ferrari and so on (usually around Christmas). The interactions between them, and also between all you guys make me so happy. I had to cover my mouth at "woody", because people are still asleep and the laugh I let out was alarmingly loud. I love the surprise Andy appearance. His reactions to whatever they're doing are always great. Normal adult man and all that. Geraniums don't really smell like much though, right?
    Talking about more control when going faster reminds me of on an old Top Gear ep when Richard Hammond got to drive an F1 car and he was doing pretty badly, but the team was telling him he needed to go faster to have more control because of the tires needing to be warm. He was terrified to go faster, but he managed it in the end and it was easier to go faster than it was to go slower. The goal was just one complete lap of the track, I think, and he did it.

      I'd recommend taking a look at Wreckfest, too. It's mainly Banger racing, but you can race pretty cleanly if you put your mind to it. Entertaining damage modelling and reasonably realistic handling, remember to move the brake balance rearward a peg if the understeer gets on your nerves, it improves handling even when you're not using the brakes.

      @@toymachine2328 Doesn't look too bad, but it also depends on how heavily involved the multiplayer aspect is. I don't have a PS+ account and I have no need for one since I don't play games that actually require PS+ to be played, so if multiplayer is a big part of a game I usually don't get it.

      @@SolaScientia The multiplayer is fun, but not necessary, and there's a Tournament mode with weekly challenges, I'm not sure how that's handled on console, I assume through the subscription service.
      The campaign is pretty strong on it's own, IMO, and once you unlock vehicles you can use them in custom races on the various tracks, choosing up to 23 A.I. competitors to race up to 50 laps.
