I've had so many NFS games since way back... hell I learned about exotic cars for the first time in NFS 2. McLaren F1, Jag XJ220, then the silly ones like the Ford GT90, Ford Indigo, strange things like the Isdera Commedatore 112i and the Italdesign Cala. Even the Porsche one. They just got tackier and tackier as time passed though...

NFS knows how to promote and advertise their games.

This will probably suck like the last 5 games they put out though.

Will hope for better though.

I rented Undercover...there was just something so boring about it. It felt so drawn out and repetitive.

But than when you look at it, games that do destroy your car and race is over suck sometime.Imagine going like 10 laps perfect, and at last lap you over stear or something and you crash. lol

I bought it today.

Amazing game. You really get a sense of speed in the cockpit view.
Crashes are insane in that view also. I never seen a game make it like this.
Vision blurs, head gets jarred around.

I locked up my brakes going about 120mph in a 135i and I had no idea where the fuck I was pointed after I hit the wall. The no HUD options makes it better.

Its no GT or Forza but it is a fun racing game. Definitely a better NFS game then the previous catastrophe's.

prob the best NFS game i have played to date. If you liked GRID youll like this (i really liked grid)

Most Wanted was released for the 360. So there is your good graphics lol

I will probably buy NFS Shift and play it til Forza 3 comes out.
Then I will buy Forza 3 til Gran Turismo 5 comes out

So looks like I will be playing Forza 3 for 5 years :D

NFS did get pretty gay i stopped playing after..... the one AFTER NFS Most Wanted...forget what its calld:thinking:....with the down hill racing win you have to chase and lead...:thinking: anyway i stopped playin NFS after that...

OUTLAW
09-17-2009, 07:13 AM
to me this is by fa the best nfs so far. i like how ur vision blurs when you reach higher speeds and its not like privous nfs ur not gonna go into a corner doing 120+ and turn it perfect u really have to drive the car as a real car the cockpit view is amazing finally nfs you got ur self a real racing game

JITB
09-17-2009, 07:23 AM
the game is good. the best nfs to me, but i havent played the recent ones. just the ole ps1 ones. But at first i didnt like it too much, than it grew on me. The points and start stuff it what kind of makes it cool.

The drifting is kind of gay..lol But its still fun its just hard as hell to get down. But other than that its pretty solid. it has a realism exerience to it. But the physics feel a little different than forza. But it aint touchin forza, but a good try for now tho..lol


Did anyone notice that if u try to drive manual with the default controls, for the 360 i know. That its impossible to brake and downshift.. because the downshift is LB, and the brake is L....lol the only way to do it is with a 6th finger. But once u change the controls, and change the dead spots in the steering, and acceleration, it makes it alot better to me!

That one was "Carbon." I thought that one was sort of stupid though...with your "racing crew" and such.

I like the whole Cops 'n' Robbers thing...I don't know why Undercover couldn't capture the fun of Most Wanted.

I'm really enjoying the game.

I've got a BMW 135i made to look like the 135tii, a black BMW e36 M3 for drifting, a Lotus Elise for precision driving and an Aston Martin DB9 in GT1 Class guise for plain old brute force racing.

MikeDubs
10-05-2009, 08:42 PM
I got the game, didnt really like it much, till I got the nissan GT-R with works conversion. After that, it gets pretty sick. I have almost beaten all the races, I have a GT-R works conversion, a stock Aston-Martin DB-9 and a Civic. I really do miss the more in-depth customization of underground 1 and 2, even if you could turn your car into a lowrider ricer with hydraulics. I also miss the free-roaming aspect of the game where you could just drive around without racing.

10-10-2009, 12:35 AM
Played the demo, the controls threw me off. Throttle on R2 and R3 only(Ps3)? I like how it feels real within the interior. The Viper is hella torquey and the game feels realistic but not as simulative as GT5. If they got co-op drag racing online for the Ps3 on GT5; that is gonna be off the pitbull chain. :goodjob:

bigb996
10-15-2009, 01:45 PM
i picked it up a couple weeks ago and it took a little while but ive really gotten into it. Since GT5 is taking its sweet time to come out it was the closest i could come for the time being. I really like the incockpit view but if you crash a lot its hard to see out of the glass. The drifting to me is actually pretty enjoyable. For once the 350/370z motor sounds like its supposed to and not like a honda civic. Like others have said though the customization isnt were it should be.

Has anyone figured out how to paint wheels? or do like a dual paint scheme ie: black roof/truck/hood and other color body?

I don't think they included wheel painting in this game. I know the Volk TE37s are available in bronze, white, and black with a red lip so with all that, I doubt wheel painting would've been put in. It's sort of annoying, but oh well.


I guess I'm one of the few that loves this game, i play online often if anyone else is ever interested.

I got the Lambo, but the mofo is too loose.

The R8 handles nice for tier 4, very forgiving but not necessarily the fastest thing out there.

This is the game ProStreet should've been.

I'm having an issue with some of my Works cars...my Lamborghini Murcielago and the Nissan Skyline won't go over 155 mph even with ever performance part installed. I even adjusted the gear ratios for each car and it just made it worse. My Works Corvette is fine and my other cars with less power blow the Lambo and Skyline away. I don't know what's up.

tony
11-29-2009, 10:24 AM
I have a murcielago w/ works and it goes far above 155, not sure what is up with that. Only one I have that wont go over 155 is the audi TT w/ works.

It's probably on XBOX 360 too, but I checked out the Playstation Store the other day and found a free download which gives you five extra cars.

You get them free in your garage in Career Mode and they're available for play in Quick Race and Online. You can modify all of them, they're driftable and have nitrous available...it's a great free download.

You get:
-1995 Toyota Supra
-1967 Shelby GT500
-1971 Dodge Challenger
-1969 Dodge Charger
-1967 Chevrolet Corvette
