sorry...more off topic..

And I'm currently working on a 15 minute pursuit in most wanted featuring the music of past NFS games... lol lets see how well your memory of NFS really is

I only have NFS 2, 3, highstakes, porsche unleashed, HP2, U1,MW and currently borrowing U2..lol...

Oh man, I forgot to point out that:

the official release date of NFS in mainland China is always about ONE YEAR later than that in US/Europe....never earlier. but Hongkong or Taiwan is almost the same with the west.

e.g...NFSU2 in China, released in August 2005....

Do you think that nfs carbon will be in stores 31 october in America , Europe and Asia at same time

i don't think so...
I don't like the nfmw so i hope carbon will be a more exciting game

Asia will get the game maybe 15 days after America!

For U2 and MW Asia was BEFORE the US and Europe. europe was even after the US release. I assume translating issues etc.

This is what I don't understand about EA and its release dates.

Since US English and UK English are very very similar (a few missing "u's" such as colour, favour, etc and chips in the US are crisps in the UK), why is the UK release nearly always one of the last

Surely, as we can live with the US version of our language quite happily, we should be released at the same time as the US, in fact we should get the same version (I know the cars were different in U2 between EU and US (which was utterly inexcusable IMHO, all cars should have been in both versions)).

Maybe that is because they have to change the sentence:
The Color of a car is as important as the flavor of chips.

Every business has to make money and that's one of the most important, if not, most important goal.

The reason they're improving their games is because they want to SELL. There are tons of other shooters outside to buy instead of Steam shooters. EA doesn't have to do this shiznit because NFS is very f-ing popular and there are a few to none other racers that can match NFS. The games aren't that bad, they just don't have the quality anymore.

Well look If you havn't noticed NFS:MW was available for : pc, ps2, psp, xbox, xbox 360, nindtendo ds, mobile! and i think gamecube! Now thats a sales icon. I mean c'mon MOBILE!

Well as many platforms more money!

And game for mobile isn't that hard to make!
