    There is your problem....Need for Speed used to be about Ferrari, Lambo and BMW Ms(among other super exotics), only in the post Fast and Furious time that it became a tuner car franchise.....

    The carlist btw looks good....decent balance between hot hatches, sports cars, and exotics....not not a massive list with lots of filler like GT....I can only hope tbe developer delivers the diverse experience between different cars...

    yeah i know, they put too many tuners in the game that out numbered the exotic and muscle cars. i really need to widen out don't i?

    Exactly. And that was bad.
    Lack of charisma can be fatal.

    Fast and Furious + NFS Underground = nothing has been the same since then.
    and yes, it was better before.

    In a way, I kind of don't blame them, but yet I do.

    The original games had a following that kind of left after they went Fast and the Furious.

    But then again, they picked up on the fad and profited off of it.

    It would have been nice if they made the FF as a spinoff and not kill the original idea behind the game. But hey, at least they're returning to it now.

    They tried to put exotics into Most wanted didn't they?

    Lets hope the haven't been away from the game long enough that this one fails miserably.
    Miscommunication seems to be a direct result of misplaced, text based sarcasm.

    Looks good, however NFS names are always silly.

    What's next? A prequel called NFS: Downshift and a sequel called NFS:Upshift?

    I def want an expansion pack called Heel & Toe.

    IGN: Need for Speed Shift Preview

    Sounds interesting, I am at least intrigued by this, the difficulty test reminds me of Modern Warfare's opening test....probably more relavent in this case....hope my PC will be fast enough to play this(among other games coming...)

    this. the gf's notebook is already dropping the fps ration in Grid when it get a it hotter, which happens about every 4 minutes or so with not really high quality settings for as regards the graphics.
    I managed to get an smooth session only one evening, a pretty "cold" on (now it's freaking hot summer), with a fan pointed to the notebook (and me), and with a couple of books keeping the laptop raised from the table.

    Sounds demanding. It looks like if anything I'd be playing it on a console.

    PC games are pretty tough, and a laptop isn't the right solution either
