Here's an interesting article. https://finance.yahoo.com/news/original-bullitt-mustang-found-takes-233000893.html
I may have just earned the award for dumbest wrist injury. I was playing BeamNG with my G920 and clipped a pole on the right-hand side, which pushed the car's front wheel back. The steering wheel jerked hard to the right and caught my thumb, twisting my wrist the wrong way. Yay for realism.
As we can see, BeamNG even simulates the painful injuries a driver could sustain, making it an ideal choice for learner drivers.
Anyway: does anyone know a good place to buy (not bootleg) video game soundtracks in digital form, preferably one track at a time? I'm trying to put together some driving mixes and you have no idea how hard this stuff is to find without resorting to iTunes (I have a very strong aversion to giving Apple money). Need to find: Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed, Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2, Motor City Online, Need for Speed High Stakes, Need for Speed III Hot Pursuit, Gran Turismo 6, Ford Racing 3, Ford Racing Off-Road, Enthusia Professional Racing (know there was a soundtrack CD but I don't know if it ever got a US or digital release), Burnout 1, 2, 3 before EA got involved, Corvette (AKA Corvette 50), Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3, Wangan Midnight Maximum Tune (probably all of them, though I only have a few songs I'd pick out), Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance (couple songs off this one that a former coworker said my driving reminded him of), probably others that I don't remember. Licensed songs I can buy anyway, but made-for-game songs tend to be a pain to find.
Why buy the tunes when you technically already own them? Some games use CD audio, which is simple to rip to the format of your choice. For those games that don't use CD audio, tools exist for converting many audio formats used in games.
WMMT is an arcade game, don't have MCO, NFS3, or MGR:R, Burnout 3 tracks in question were cut when EA got involved and put into Paradise instead (which I have only in PS3 digital form and stopped playing for a reason), NFSPU no longer works for me for reasons I can't figure out despite having still having the same 1997-vintage computer I used to play it on (seems something else I uninstalled took a critical file with it and I can't figure out how to get it back). NFSHS used shortened versions of some songs, though it seems many (not including the intro and some menu music) were licensed anyway. For everything else, I'd rather not explore firsthand the legality of either the music or the tools used to rip it (heard ripping from a game disc is illegal full stop). I've got a butt to cover, don't feel like getting my door kicked in because some overzealous Constitution-stomping federal prosecutor decided to go remotely snooping around my hard drive.
If that's your main concern you really have nothing to worry about, certainly not if you're just getting the songs off YouTube or something. It's estimated that more than half of Americans pirate music and movies for personal use. There are way bigger fish in the sea than some dude making mixtapes out of old video game soundtracks.
this year is the tenth anniversary of FlatOut Ultimate Carnage sad that it was the last good FlatOut, at least there is Wreckfest though
I imagine the bans are selected from a drop down tab with various times for the ban, and one of them says "test" at the end and the only safe guard is a pop up that says "are you sure you want to do this".
I doubt moderators can ban themselves. In most if not all forum boards I have managed/moderated so far there are checks in place to prevent this.
It's because of users like @ThreadBumper that I won't stop saying that more mods are needed. Report him all you want, but he's not going to stop, and there'll be nobody to sort him out for quite some time.
