Hopefully the story or progression is engaging enough to keep my interest.

The devs have promised that the story and progression will be getting a change from previous entries. The past few have gotten some flack for just throwing all the currency and all the cars at you without much challenge to it. Recent editions are bordering on being a car-collector-simulator as much as a racing game.

Personally, I've loved them all for just messing around and driving hundreds of different cars, but a bit of change in formula would be welcome, if they can pull it off.

In about two days, there will be reports of massive volume of shorts on oil company stocks that occurred in the minutes before the announcement, then another day after that, nobody will talk about it again.

Our family computer at the time was well below the minimum specs, so i played for the first year or two at like 5 fps. Good game, not good as a slideshow. lol

First game I specifically asked for from my parents: Stunt Driver. Must have been in the first half of 1990.

First game I saved up for and bought myself: Super Mario Bros 3. Much of the money I saved came in the summer of 1990, so that would have been in late summer of that year.

"It's been 0 days since this administration violated someone's rights."

The "0" is just written in ink. It has not changed, and never will.

This is why Windows peaked with version 2000.

They had some cool software like 20 years ago. Then they doubled down on the subscription model, and I haven't thought about them much since then.

Hopefully they don't lean into live service games or DLC traps.

Successful psychopaths are very good at imitating normal emotional responses, which they learn over decades of observing normal people. But when facing a novel situation, they have no such learning to rely on, and their jarringly cold responses reveal their hollow interiors.
