The Silt Strider is not a vehicle, it is an animal. Actually, there are a lot of animals in this.

MODERATORS
They also list the Fenrir motorcycle and cite the movie Advent Children instead of the one game it appeared in, which is Dirge of Cerberus, even though they cited the X-Wing as being from Battlefront.
Roach is powered by "Horse Heart" but Epona isn't even powered by carrots. Whoever made this knows nothing.
The Wathog from Halo series
The X-Wing from Star Wars Battlefront
🤔
I guess the X-Wings from the rest of the series are inferior to this one?
Lol the GTA 5 vehicle does a whooping 105 mph. No wonder these games don't have speedometers
Strange that the Prawn Suit from Subnautica is there, but the SeaMoth or Cyclops aren't.
Atlas from Titanfall 2 is the only one I care about… sniff
Quite a few FF airships, but I'm more a Blackjack person (but than again you get Falcon later on so that's two vehicles I guess).
The arwing is that big? That can't be right
I twigged to that immediately, also. Canonically according to the Internet the Arwing is supposed to be 28 "sm" long in its SNES incarnation and 18.5 of them thereafter, only raising the question of what the hell the "sm" is as a unit and how that translates to real world ones. But assuming that Fox and his furry pals are roughly the same proportions as humans, the way the Arwing is consistently depicted is with a single seater cockpit that one of them fits in to handily, roughly analogous to a real world fighter jet. Thus we can assume they're about the same proportions. So, like 18 to 20 meters long, which makes Star Fox's units (maybe they're "space meters") seem pretty comparable.
I think the Arwing's on the wrong page, here.
Where's MatPat when you need him?
SM is obviously Square Miles.
Though more likely, "Standard Meter" was the intention, after the SM^3, Standard Cubic Meter.
It is depicted as a little bit shy of 100ft here, so this checks roughly out. If it is too large it's only by a fraction…
I thought there might be at least one shmup. The R9 from R-Type? The Vic Viper? Silver Hawk? Fighting Thunder?
Still really cool though!
chocobo is basically icarus as well
