If your speedo prints the numbers like video games do ... you would not be able to read the numbers at all ...

i.e. if you are just cruising at 60mph ... the thing will just keep going from 59 to 60 to 61 to 60 to 59 ... and would annoy the hell outta you

Why can't I run over hookers and get points for it?

in grand theft auto running over hookers gets you the cash they drop... no 'points'. then the cops come after you (assuming they see you).

...


oddly enough i see no reason that wouldn't work in real life.

Motorcycles don't care about speedo. It's all about RPM.

You can youtube bike videos and watch (fast moving) LCD displays all day.

I'm more concerned with why I don't have a fifty foot tall armored combat robot like in Armored Core.

I still think it would be cool if someone could design a system to show every number on WOT. I mean when you race how often do you look at your speedo? Maybe at higher speeds comming up to a turn but it wont be accel as fast anyways so you could read it.

I want a gun that can shoot portals onto walls and ceilings and such. That would be cool.
