I just got some information about NFSU2:

Gamespy just post a Hands-On preview here:
http://ps2.gamespy.com/playstation-2/ne ... 844p1.html

it says in the article that there will be a new mode called streetcross.
Quote:"The event I had been invited to was a Streetcross race. These circuit matches take place in tiny closed arenas which causes the gameplay to feel similar to a kart racer."

There has also been more video clips found by Skyline_man:

EA has also posted an article here:

New screens at gamespot:

About arrows, ok. But I wish there will be a ON/OFF for that. I think it is too arcade to drive with those arrows. We have the map, and our brain to memorize the circuit!

I just went to the official site and figured out that EA has finally opened the video clips section

Only has one video so far,though.

Really Good quality!!

Hmm, I found this while surfing at GameSpy. This game is called Street Racing Syndicate (http://srs.namco.com/). It has almost the same features as NFSU2, but I don't know much about this game, and there are some prose and cons of buying either NFSU2 or SRS.

SRS: This game is made by Namco. This game has cops, licensed body kits (I think), and you CAN choose sexy babes to be your assistant, like standing beside your car before the race and posing beside your car for picures for magazines. This game also has more than 40 licensed cars. (Shipping in August on all platforms)

NFSU2: Excellent graphics, better vynils. But no cops, and limited space to paste decals (if you concenterate on the Mitsubishi Evolution which has the CARBON body kits, the decals' positions are in the same position like in NFSU1). In SRS, decals can be pasted at the front & rear bumpers, hoods (more than 7), and even spoilers!

Performance wise, I am not so sure. But if you are interested, you might wanna check it out.

After learning about this 2 street racing games, I'm in a dillema on which game I should buy. Looks like EA has some competitive competitors to handle!!

*P.S: Sorry spike_minoda, I really wanna stress this out to everyone.

if you watch the gameplay footage of SRS,you will see that it's some kind of.....copy from NFSU with cops and daylight ....

Andre_online · Post by **Andre_online** » 17 Jul 2004, 13:22

I agree spike_minoda. But the good thing is, they have cops, and Babes to choose!

But, the graphic isn't as nice as NFSU2.

That's my opinion
