Tesla CEO Elon Musk has made no attempts to hide his love for video games and popular culture, and has previously asked whether users of Teslas would be interested in playing CD Projekt Red's The Witcher games while on self-driving mode. Yesterday, he once again took to Twitter to ask whether it would be at all possible to get "good multiplayer" games working in a Tesla.

A certain selection of Teslas already have games that owners can boot up through the car, including indie 2D action-platformed Cuphead. Musk, who must have been playing Mojang's sandbox building title Minecraft given his initial comment that the game "has amazing legs," asked the public at large whether multiplayer games such as Minecraft could work on Teslas.

He went on to ask whether a game that "interacts virtually with reality," such as Niantic's AR mobile title Pokemon GO, would also work while "driving safely," arguing they could work something like a complex version of Mario KartPokemon GO in particular has led to numerous concerns with regards to road safety, as players have been pulled over for trying to catch Pokemon even during the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

That being said, putting these games on a Tesla would not necessarily make distracted driving a safe practice even with a self-driving vehicle. In February, a National Transportation Safety Board hearing found that a Tesla driver killed in a 2018 crash may have been able to help prevent his autopilot's malfunction if he hadn't been distracted playing on his phone. While the idea of having things like video games available in self-driving vehicles sounds great on paper, it may be a dangerous thing for Musk to promote even through seemingly casual questions on Twitter.

Musk has had a somewhat spotty track record on social media as of late, even beyond his Tesla-related video game questions. Not only did he seemingly single-handedly drop his own company's stock prices by joking about it on Twitter according to news sites like the Los Angeles Times, but he also received backlash for using a Deus Ex comparison when calling for the end of coronavirus safety measures.

Despite these controversies, Musk and his companies — Tesla, SpaceX, and others — are doing some important work in the realm of technology and have become popular. Sometimes that popularity comes in the form of memes however, like when fans petitioned to get the Tesla Cybertruck into Rocket League.
