Re: Shift 2 Unleashed! Who's buying it or Not buying it? Why

Must admit that I've been so disappointed with EA's recent offerings, I'll probably not buy this. Unless it gets stonking good reviews, then I might think again.

Re: Favorite Car?

Best car I've ever owned (and certainly the fastest)! It is also the car I've kept longest - nearly 12 YEARS ffs. This car is badly underrated by people; it easily blew away a modern Mini Cooper S in a straight line the other day, despite being completely stock. OK, dynamically it is a car designed ...

Re: NFS Shift user reviews

A short review of NFS Shirt. At first, I thought, yup I like this game a lot - until I reached Tier 4. OMG, the other drivers are flipping maniacs - as stated by others, they seem to target you and deliberately run you off the track. Yet if you try to knock one of them off, you STILL end up off the ...

Just some calirification: Is NFS2010 the one rumored to be developed by EA Singapore to be some sort of MMO? I heard something similar to this. However, from what I read it said BlackBox and EA Singapore were said to be releasing a Need for Speed each in 2009. Maybe we'll get lucky and get two NFS ...

Yup - however, you seem to win a lot less money the second time you do it - the only time I tried it, and if I remember correctly, I won $20,000 the first time, only $1,500 the second.
