Wow. No kidding. I didn't realize there were so many.

Thankfully the only worthwhile car in the CE is the Challenger and it looks like we'll probably have the 09 Camaro, so it's all good.

Great, advertise some nice cars for us to get hyped about, then tell us we have to pay an additional price for them.

Facepalm.

This sucks. Hyping fans up and then finding out they have to pay for the cars that should have been in the game already. EA just put all the cars in the actual physic retail copy.

Did you honestly think EA wouldn't firetruck something up? It's EA, you should all know by now.

I agree with most sentiments here. As an aside anybody know what the file size for the ce upgrade is. (I am on a fairly limited data package). :)
Speeding along minding my own business...

Don't forget MW's Black Edition... it's sad, it was actually a cool idea imo back then.

Atleast the Black Edition was a game that you could buy with a special box etc. gave it a bit extra.

Yeah, but if EA started giving away special (metal) boxes, then that would make them Microsoft... :lol:

Although I did actually like the BE box... infact, when the game was to buggy to play on my crappy computer, I'd just stare at it. (Then get pissed off because EA rushed another game, thus the bugs.)

At least you got something tangible with the Black Edition, even though the extra DVD was kindof worthless. With ProStreet, you could only get the CE as a downloadable add-on, which kindof defeats the purpose of naming it Collector's Edition. Most collectors want something tangible to distinguish their edition from others.

I actually expected something good from the Carbon CE. Actually, now that I think about it, I actually expected something good from Carbon. :lol:

I remember I was on an overnight trip with my school when Carbon came out, and I didn't have enough money saved for it... I had to friggin' skip dinner (TWICE) to get the Carbon CE the day it came out, and I didn't get much for it... =(

Downloads are even stupider than that, especially if you have to restore your computer for some reason, not to mention most NFS player's won't/don't have credit cards. :?

Just found out that in the PC version, the car folders for the CE cars have similar size to the folders for the regular cars.

Basically means the CE cars are fully included in the retail version.

FU EA.

They're probably going to be locked.

Or even better, we're going to have another Carbon and the cars that are supposed to be there are going to be 'accidentally' locked. -.-
