I read about this one just today. On the one hand, it's EA and it's NFS.. two names that I haven't been very fond of lately. On the other hand, they're revamping the NFS series again.

As you know, the original NFS involved street racing to an extent, usually on closed courses.. you and a few opponents. Later they threw some cops into the mix.

The first revamp was when NFS got stupid... they made a bunch of Fast and the Furious type games.. illegal street racing, idiotic ricer modz, etc. Wit da thumpin' neon and.. er.. whatever.

Now, they're taking it in another direction, and believe it or not, it sounds promising. Sounds like sort of a combination of the two previous iterations, but much closer to the original than the ricer-crap.

The closest real-world thing I can compare it to is what they used to call "Sportsman's Night" at the local race track. Where folks would bring their cars to the track and race 'em. And apparently, that's what this new game is about. The mods are still there from the stupid NFS, but this time, they're performance mods and not "bling" mods. Spoilers that behave like spoilers. Looks like custom stickers and such are available. But the action takes place on closed-off street courses and actual race tracks instead of open traffic-filled road.

Here's some pics at IGN:

What do you guys think? Is it too late for NFS to redeem itself? Or wait and see? Or OMGBESTTHINGEVAR?
 
Chut up!

Okay, you can lock it...

I never can tell if there's anything new in the GG forum, because there's only ever the Batracer thread listed on the main page, and I don't even know what that is, so I just ignore the forum altogether.
 
It looks like a good game.I've always liked the NFS series,but the last four games was too F&F for me ( though I did like speeding through traffic at 200+ mph while blasting Paul Van Dyk).This is going to be a great game if what say in the interviews.

All games are great if you look at pre-release news. Sadly this will probably be just another pimped NFS game =/
 
nah, for some reason I don't think it's going to happen.You're right about the pre-release,I thought NFS: Carbon was going to be good.Boy was I wrong!
 
I think this will be kinda fun. It looks better than the older ones and better damage is good.

I knew Carbon was trash from the day they unveiled it.

WELL AREN'T YOU SPECIAL.
 
I liked the SPeed racing mode the most. From what I heard it's like the toolboth mode,without the time limit.It's concentrated on your average speed.
