Why blame EA?

[dylpro]

Ive seen a few people blaming EA for the fact that we don't have Porsche in GT. However we've had cars that have been in EA games as well. EA has had Mercedes, so has GT. EA has had Lamborghini, GT does now too. So why are we blaming EA, when we have cars featured in EA games like NFS?

Exactly. EA has a Lamborghini license. PD has a Lamborghini license. If anything the manufacturer would be happy to have their cars in the game.

EA's got exclusive licence for Porsche, so other game companies include other manufacturers/tuners instead (Gemballa for games like Midnight Club and RUF for games like the GT series, Test Drive etc. etc.)

I don't really care tbh, RUF is a great manufacturer in its own right, and I love the NFS series (apart from Underground )

I believe it's something along the lines of the reason that EA had fully licensed Porsche, therefore not allowing other games by companies who create driving games to use the official Porsche. Hence why GT doesn't have it, and has RUF, and Forza lost Porsche, and now has RUF.

That's what I believe, I'll repeat again.

If I remember correctly as a result of that EA lost the rights to Ferrari.

That's a TechArt 911 so maybe, we could have that...

I'm just glad there is at least some form of Porsche in the game, even if they are just standards. ;-)

EDIT: My bad, TechArt are just a tuner so that would be a no. :-(

I love the look on the guy's face in the right side of the picture. He doesn't look happy his picture was taken.

I think it's more of a,

"Whoa. Beast machine."
