Are the stories called playlist? I did see a menu for that but right now it's locked to me. Cara you have managed to get some really awesome rides. I Have been watching youtube videos, and I want to get one of those newer cars released with in the last month. That v12 engine sounds amazing. Also that new Camaro seems to be pretty great. Ah will have to play around with getting to the message center. I think I found it once and somehow collected a car. You know I don't get how they made the menu accessible for the auto show some what but then the auction house doesn't work at all. Kind of sad really. I will have sometime to play today, so will see what I can get done. Anytime you are up for making an audio tutorial that would be awesome. Yes I have the habbit of driving way too fast passed the events, and not knowing how to reverse, I keep driving so that I can give it another try using the map, to navigate back there. I wonder if sending playground a tweet or something would get any attention from them. I know turn10 and playground studios are not exactly the same but surely those teams communicate, so they have to know what is going on with what turn10 is doing with accessibility. Maybe they could work on small patches to fix certain things until, they start working on fh 6. I was a little sad when I realize I couldn't work on custom tunes for cars. Also it would be fun to paint them if we chose. Don't know if anyone got a change to play the crew Motorfest beta, but I really wonder if they did anything with accessibility there. Anyways enough of my rambling for now. I hope everyone has a lovely Sunday.
