I kind of don't think the title of the game is the whole "NFS: Hot Pursuit Race". If you look at the posters in the background with the cops, they leave off the "Race" part. I guess we'll find out in a few hours, though.

Don't worry about originalracer . He's just been upset at EA because they never released a sequal to "Sesame Street: Get Ready to Learn!" . That was, however, like over 10 years ago, so you'd think he'd have gotten over it. He must be a woman. And just so this isn't off-topic, the McLaren ...

It's difficult to judge how accurate a drifting physics engine is just based on one movie trailer. Trust me, I don't want it to be like ProStreet either. Before PS came out, though, all the movies they released made the drifting look terrific, which they could just as easily do with Shift.

They make it sound like they designed a new separate physics engine just for drifting. Interesting. The same thing was done with ProStreet, and look how that turned out...

High system req's don't necessarily tell whether the software's going to be all that great.

Just look at Vista...

Not Forza 2.

I guess I can see this working. My only complaint is that the background is rather plain, and better use of that space could be made. Could it show scenery from one of the tracks, the Nordschlife or Autopolis perhaps?

They said Sep. 22? They really mean October 27. Got it.

Is this visual customization actually that important? Is racing really a contest to see who can make their car look as not-stock as possible? When you're racing your car, all you notice and care about is how it handles with that new air dam up front, for example. Not the number of sponsorship sticke...

To be honest, I'm not really interested in hardcore sim racing. This just may give me an excuse to move over o MC:LA. I think a pretty important factor of what people think of any given game is the atmosphere it presents. For example, what sort of menus, soundtrack, and HUD does it have? Most Wanted...

Aren't you taught to focus on the road when driving? Heh! ;) That, and to drive the speed limit, and to pull over when the cops turn their sirens on. But where's the fun in that? ...wouldnt the sky turn into nighttime when your driving down the canyon? You’ll see Carbon in daylight and experience...

I think that when everyone said the trailer looked like Carbon, they meant the lighting effects and car geometry. It looks like somebody at EA may have confused that to mean that the city looks like Carbon's city (I think it was Palmont). I honestly can't tell, because it all goes quickly and the ca...

In a way, I hope this is close to the way the graphics look in the end. It would probably mean the minimum system reqs are able to be met by more people's PCs, and a larger group of people would all be able to play (myself included). Doesn't it just seem EA-ish to appeal to a larger audience, and by...

What are those moving colorful boxes just before it shows the cars?

I hope World's system req's aren't totally state of the art, otherwise I won't be able to play it. The last game my PC could even sort of handle was Carbon.

I'm not going to commit to buy any of these yet like I did this far out with Undercover. I've learned my lesson. They could really have something with the NFS World. If it's anything like Trackmania (just not so arcady) I think it could turn out to be a big hit, especially if it's free. And you can'...

Merry Christmas all!

...or Hannakkuh...

...or Kwanzah...

...or Jewish Holiday...

...or Cra-zy-un Fai-ry-sit...

...or whatever the crap it is you celebrate!

Picture this:

Need for Speed: Burnout

Sounds great, right?

On second thouht, no. It just doesn't roll off the tongue.

EA will probably make the final decision after they see how successful the patch is. If this is the case, then pretty much the entire franchise depends on this patch and EA will put all its effort into making it a good one. I also wouldn't care if they started over with a new name. Codemasters sort ...

Hmmm... My last post sounded like an insult to just about everyone on the forum. Apologies.

And hooray for a patch (so my apology is not off topic)!

I guess I'm happy I haven't had time to finish the game yet supposing the patch really does improve it. I've been too busy with my real life. And am I the only one here that has the impression that elie is a girl's name and that's why they're so open? (If it's not, elie, then I apologize.) And at le...

Now isn't that a rather dull thing to say?

So far the only complaints I've been able to come up with are the shadow problem, the lack of some racing modes, and the soundtrack. If UC took place later in the day (not necessarily the middle if the night) they wouldn't have to worry about the shadows at all. I just feel goofy street racing in th...

Mmmph. Bad day. I reserved Undercover at Hastings a while back and went to pick it up today. They wouldn't give it to me because they didn't think it came out until tomorrow regardless of anything I said. Yeah, I know. The good thing is that I still am getting the iPhone version - when iTunes posts ...

Okay. That is exactly what not to do to a Camaro. It was the one car I'd been waiting for ever since they started giving away pieces of the car list and they make it look like something from the Black Lagoon. This just goes to show that I won't be wasting my time with any crummy body kits. Stupid bo...
