The most memorable vehicle in a video game, to me, is Axel from Twisted Metal. You’re not likely to forget a vehicle that’s literally just a dude holding wheels.
It is a silt strider haiii haiiii hiiii :D
You n’wahs think the greatest taxi service on history of the videogames would be left out of a topic like this…
Mages guild transportation> (rage bait) seeth s’wit
The Silt Strider is not a vehicle, it is an animal. Actually, there are a lot of animals in this.
They also list the Fenrir motorcycle and cite the movie Advent Children instead of the one game it appeared in, which is Dirge of Cerberus, even though they cited the X-Wing as being from Battlefront.
Roach is powered by “Horse Heart” but Epona isn’t even powered by carrots. Whoever made this knows nothing.
Why can’t it be both?
The Wathog from Halo series
The X-Wing from Star Wars Battlefront
🤔
I guess the X-Wings from the rest of the series are inferior to this one?
No Yggdrasil from Xenogears?
The arwing is that big? That can’t be right
I twigged to that immediately, also. Canonically according to the Internet the Arwing is supposed to be 28 “sm” long in its SNES incarnation and 18.5 of them thereafter, only raising the question of what the hell the “sm” is as a unit and how that translates to real world ones. But assuming that Fox and his furry pals are roughly the same proportions as humans, the way the Arwing is consistently depicted is with a single seater cockpit that one of them fits in to handily, roughly analogous to a real world fighter jet. Thus we can assume they’re about the same proportions. So, like 18 to 20 meters long, which makes Star Fox’s units (maybe they’re “space meters”) seem pretty comparable.
I think the Arwing’s on the wrong page, here.
Where’s MatPat when you need him?
It is depicted as a little bit shy of 100ft here, so this checks roughly out. If it is too large it’s only by a fraction…
SM is obviously Square Miles.
Though more likely, “Standard Meter” was the intention, after the SM^3, Standard Cubic Meter.
It felt wrong to me too, but the thing is they’ve chosen to put it on page 2 which is a bit confusing.
Compare its size with the X-wing on page 1 (using the Metal Gear as a reference), taking into account the different orientation. They look pretty similar (which is obviously what people who designed the Arwing were going for).
Lol the GTA 5 vehicle does a whooping 105 mph. No wonder these games don’t have speedometers
One of the tricks GTA V uses to make the world seem bigger is they slow down the vehicles so that it takes longer to travel.
And actually most of the vehicles do have working speedometers if you drive them in first person view.
Even if there were, you don’t have to make those accurate.
F-Zero GX is quite fast, but I really don’t think it’s 2,000 km/h fast.
Strange that the Prawn Suit from Subnautica is there, but the SeaMoth or Cyclops aren’t.
I have not seen anything of Eve Online.
The boat from The Last Caretaker would be an interesting addition, too.
Atlas from Titanfall 2 is the only one I care about… sniff
Quite a few FF airships, but I’m more a Blackjack person (but than again you get Falcon later on so that’s two vehicles I guess).
I thought there might be at least one shmup. The R9 from R-Type? The Vic Viper? Silver Hawk? Fighting Thunder?
Still really cool though!
chocobo is basically icarus as well
