In one of the new screenshots I noticed the 350z had a crew logo vinyl on the door. Guess that confirms that crew logo's will be available as vinyls.

Actually it isnâ€™t old. It is somewhat similar to the Mass Run video at Gameswelt.de however.

i think they'll be able to pull off race wars on xbox/gcn/ps2, but probably with much less detail to the opponent cars (like no bodykits) and take out the traffic. from the race wars video, it looks like they use a lot of the same car so it won't be such a memory strain.

Mmmmm.... Demo? i care? no. not at all....

i do think neons will be on the cars, cause it was on the PS3 trailer. and also its night racing. it makes sense for them not to put it on MW cause it was day racing. And Neons at night make it easier for you to see where your opponents are.

I wonder if Nitrous Purge and Hydraulics are back?

I just found a pic of CE content on one of NFS sites.
Here's the link

http://www.fotosik.pl/pokaz_obrazek/pel ... 9030a.html

Got one word: S-W-E-E-T!

EDIT: Dont kill me, dont tear me apart and dont tell me to STFU, but on one of Polish site's forum EA representative for Poland (and I can tell you for sure he IS EA representative as he has email with @ea.com) said that the demo will be out today in the evening hours. I know we heard it all before, but perhaps this time its true.

Trapez · Post by **Trapez** » 27 Oct 2006, 13:27

Sure I can give you a link but its in Polish so might be hard to understand

Heres the link to site vv

http://www.nfs.com.pl/news.php

and heres the one with the post

http://nfs.com.pl/forum_viewtopic.php?31.28763.0#28771

The guy has a nick "Grzegorz [EA POLSKA]" and you have to register to see his email, so I did and it was like grzegorz@ea.com or something. Hopefully he has correct info.

Their server is getting utterly hammered. After 2 minutes, I managed to get in, and using PolTran and some editing by me here are the results:

Greetings,

I would like to inform all you, that demo version will be available for download today, for PC. I am not in a state to say anything else that's worthy but I found out, that it can be during the evening/night hours.

As official information about a link comes out we'll surely put it on http://www.ea.pl

Please, look out for news on http://www.ea.pl

Thanks Captain Obvious, that has been discussed already in the posts before yours.

Poland is GMT+1. Download should be up around evening/afternoon or so.
