I was ready for more NFS weakness following the recent years of garbage, but that looks awesome.

It looks like it could be ill. I just hope it doesnt turn out like prostreet. that game sucked a big fat one hardcore. It looks like theyre going for a project gotham type of thing, very interesting. Should be cool. But they seriously need to improve their car list and their driving physics.

nah, thats not even close to Grid. The concept looks close. F1 type tracks, Cockpit veiws, car damage, ETC. If you ask me, By looks, NFS looks better. I wanna see if you can still customize your car like you used to be able too.

I haven't yet. But I heard it is pretty flipping insane. As in, 87684% better than that ProStreet **** in a box they put out a few years ago.

Ive been playing it. Its not bad, theres a few things that piss me off though. 1) every car drifts EVERY****INGWHERE it goes. you cant take a normal turn. 2) the mods are extremely unrealistic (a racing exhaust may actually add more power than a stage 3 turbo kit) 3) there much less customization than in undercover 4) You cant see the ****ing bodykits before you put them on.

on the bright side tho. It is realistic in that if u drop 700hp into a car, it compromises the drivability and u need to be damn good to drive it. the 1 v 1 races are sick cuz u basically just have to flip the other car and then just merc for 5 sec. good cars in the game.

Lets put it this way. Me and my friends are having fun with it. But Forza is still the biggest game on our minds. This game needed to beat forza to market cuz they wouldnt've sold **** had they not. If u must buy one driving game this fall, get forza. If ur just looking to have a game till then for fun, this works very well.

How fast are you going into turns? To make "normal turns" you have to be going pretty slow, unless you're driving a god damn F1 car.

I prefer not having to put on a firesuit every time I boot up my 360, so I think I'll pass on Forza, and it's leagues of fanboys. I like unrealistic, if I wanted to go look a real racecar, I'd go scope the 2300lb tool box/ paperweight/ lawn ornament in my driveway and then go back to playing games like this.

Haha, it's on-topic discussion. I like where NFS is going, but I'm not quite serious enough to enjoy Forza.

picked it up last night but didnt get to play too much of it cause i had to undo a tv stand, build the other one i bought, hook up the tv, cable, ps3, move eveything around. anyways i did the 1st race of the season qualifier and the 2nd one. then i bought myself a civic si to see how the graphics are and inside and out, eveything is exactly the same, even the exhaust sounds the same lol, interior, tach with gas and even the buttons for the radio. however i dont like the way the cars turn.

overall, i like the graphics but while racing like someone mentioned above, the car always drifts and you can never make a normal turn. overall, i'd give it a 7/10 for now, but i still have yet to play it later on tonight. if anyone has it for ps3 add me as a friend and we'll race online lol ("jcr57rt")

like, its good, but its deff not the 9/10 that IGN gave it. its mad fun and thats what matters, but there is alot in it that makes me mad.

And, yes I go into corners mad quick and it drifts. I know thats what happens, but it also does it when i dont enter that fast, forza had it pretty damn good. NFS is just a drift fest.
