There’s a better chance of me pooping out a perfectly clean and intact
double cheeseburger, than flying cars ever becoming a thing. 

Thiagogd says:

It should hover,not fucking fly. Imagine how hard would it be for people to
steer a car-plane everywhere,if an accident happens,everything will turn
into a michael bay movie.

The FLASH says:

LOL technology can create flying cars in 2017, yet xbox one still can’t get
pass 900p.

RemoteGamingYT says:

Too soon. Way too fucking soon. Flying Cars should not happen, as cool as
they are, think of the consequences….

sefter454 says:

This won’t be a thing, why?? 9/11 nuff said. Can you see these whizzing by
the white house??

Adrian Sappington says:

This would be handy for escaping the police

Ps2 Controller says:

What a stupid shitty idea. 

ZX6R says:

That’s not a flying car that’s a plane. A flying car would have to hover.

Mojokuku says:

They were promising this when I was a kid back in the 70’s…

14supersonic says:

These are not the kind of vehicles we imagine for the future. We want them
to hover with propulsion technology, something that allows us to take of
vertically. This is not it. Its bulky, it has wings…. This is basically a
mini plane with wheels. Engineers need to go back to the drawing board, and
look further out. Look to new technology like the Em drive to help out,
maybe you can help advance that technology while trying to create new ways
to lift things.

KyleeAsakura says:

God, this would be an absolute disaster. Not the car itself, but imagining
people actually flying cars around? Nah.

Shisui salty 3.0 says:

Then what happens when you have flying car crashes? You fall from the sky
and boom, directed by Michael Bay 

Alien From Space says:

Flyin cars are soooooooo 1870

Dennis Braganza says:

In 2010, there were an estimated 5,419,000 crashes (30,296 fatal crashes),
killing 32,999 and injuring 2,239,000.[2] The 32,479 traffic fatalities in
2011 were the lowest in 62 years (1949). Records indicate that there has
been a total of 3,551,332 motor vehicle deaths in the United States from
1899 to 2012.

Imagine if there is a FLYING CARS or HOVER Car. :D

Statrak™ Kappa says:

Some futurama Shit going on



Richard Masucci says:

We can’t even create a Proper 100% wireless functioning Hoverboard but we
get Flying cars?… Okaayyyy there IGN

ZeldaMaster32 says:

Theres no point in flying cars. Roads are a 2d plane, making them fairly
safe and orderly to use. Make flying cars, and then we got a 3d plane, itd
be way too hard to keep drivers under control. One guy breaks the law? He
can easily escape because hes not limited to a road

pumpkinsoul12 says:

NEVER EVER

Jimmy Cricket says:

thank god ill be dead before technology completely destroys this planet

sonicguy1996 says:

And could IGN give fair reviews for games in 2017???
Nah thats never gonna happen XD

Hector Garcia says:

Its not a flying car if its still on the ground. 

Luke Gbenro says:

so your telling me cars can fly but we can’t cure diabetes, aids, or cancer
America your a greedy bastard

Biotic_Commando says:

That shit looks so boss. I want one.

aftershock0 says:

Not falling, crashing with style! Parachutes not included.

Jeff Jones says:
DarKSun says:

i hope this will actually happen i would love to fly

Sarantos says:

Flying cars will never happen, these idiots are just wasting their time.
Could you imagine if we had a collisions in the sky? imagine if someone was
walking down the street and suddenly a loose muffler or exhaust hits them
at the back of the head LMAO.

hypermetalsonic says:

Just wait till ISIS gets their hands on this. It’ll be 9/11, times 100.

Keglanek says:

Nearly 1.3 million people die in road crashes each year, on average 3,287
deaths a day. Now most people who fly planes are people who take years of
lessons or have flew for years, can you imagine the fatalities will happen
when people who cant drive properly on the road, now they have planes
flying into peoples homes and pedestrians on the street.

loylzeus says:

What makes a flying car really? From the looks of it, it’s really nothing
different from a personal plane except for an engine on the bigger front
wheels and car-like cockpit. Planes can drive too.

A flying car should be hover like. Giving mobility & speed to the driver
without it being like a plane.

Imagine the traffic control THO. It’ll be chaotic if this ever goes public.

rdigi_ says:

Meanwhile I just farted under my blanket, let it sit for a few seconds,
then kicked my blanket off and it smelled like disaster.

LegoGuy87 says:

It would never happen, airport/car lobbing, no structured lanes in the sky,
collisions up the ass, economics, and no real need for it.
A far more realistic approach is having cars that hover over existing
highways and lanes and return to the ground when parking, that’s a far
better idea. You could eliminate parallel parking and traffic that way. 

foufoufun0 says:

Driving a plane on roads kinda makes it like a car. This thing is basically
a plane… Aside from that, there are enough people who are horrible at
driving and a danger to other drivers, you don’t want them to fly planes,
do you?

Conor Hildebrandt says:

Everyone who comes up with a “flying car” concept, seems to be getting it
wrong, and these guys did the same thing. It’s a plane you can take on the
road. A “flying car” needs to be a VTOL (vertical take off and landing)
Hover cars is where people need to be focusing their efforts. “Cars” like
these still require you to find a run way. People will wanna take off from
their drive way not a landing strip.

Havoctheend says:

I’ll tell you guys right now, it’s not happening. Why? We’re too busy
arguing about Iran having a nuclear program and consoles to put our energy
elsewhere, like going back into outer space.

axel14243 says:

well, time to fly to the candy store

CNX625 says:

Pretty sure someone in poverty won’t be able to afford it. Only
billionaires, millionaires and the richer middle class. Ahem, white folks. 

Capt. Steve Rogers™ says:

*insert TDKR comment “My mom warned me about getting in cars with
strangers………This isn’t a car”*

AJ says:

It would be so cool just to fly right over traffic, I would buy it just for
that.

Anigamer1983 says:

I don’t think people are ready just yet for flying cars. I mean, there
will have to be new rules about driving, how to park, how ascend and
descend, new stop signs, etc. Most people would probably be scared to use
it and just stick with their regular cars.

TACOMAN CANDRIFT says:

We do got flying cars there called planes

cbdawgpound says:

in 2017 this flying car will be able to get to 124 MPH but xbox one will
only be able to get to 30 fps.

Brandon Henderson says:

Now all we need is a car that can turn into a boat.

Songbird says:

They should come up with Self driving first

Sammy Salgado says:

This will die as soon as probably before i put this comment up!

TeamOfFew says:

This is why PS4 is better.

killerfluffy267 says:

Just imagine if the Ohio drivers buy this thing! Dear god…

blueboi05 says:

I hate these kind of “flying cars”. They’re just ugly small planes. :/

illuminati says:

Yooo. This shit is crazy ass hell

BurstPlace3 says:

Its fine just a couple hundred thousand it’s all good i can just grab the
money off a tree or crap diamonds.
