I just got this game for Christmas.
I found a problem with Controller Configuration 3 in the Xbox Version of NFSU2.
On the options screen, it says that moving the right analog stick down is supposed to shift up, and moving the right analog stick up is supposed to shift down.
But for some reason, it's reversed in-game (i.e. moving the right analog stick down shifts down, and moving the right analog stick up shifts up)!
Anyone else have this problem?
