Just downloaded the demo. I played it for a few mnutes and was disgusted with what I saw. More of the same exotc car gay-tuning crap. The game instantly screams "I'm a stupid arcade". In different modes there are totally different physics, which is just retarded. The graphics are ok, the motion blur looks good, but all the cars seemed to be wraped in some glowiing plastic.

It's obvious that EA wanted to make money on the commercial success of F&F3. This game will sell well only thanks to the name it holds. But Need for Speed is dead to me.

Yeah I just d/l the demo as well. I didnt mind the last 2 underground games(for that arcade fun), but this game.... it felt like a game from the early to mid 90's. It was aweful. I have already uninstalled it. As Fleischmann mentioned its like all the cars have a glowing plastic/chrome look to them.

The drift mode was a joke and the circuit with teammate mode... Who made those lame rules up?!?!?!!

Riceing up the muscle car with that new autoscuplture feature I just had to laugh my ass off!!!

Im glad Ferrari isnt part of this crap and I wished Lamborghini wasnt part of it either

(/me waits for testdrive unlimited demo)

i personally don't like street racing games... they are crap IMO
and nfs is not as good as it used to be. what was the last one? underground? i personally find it crap,, and i hate that graphic type

but i'll pick up this new one,, since is only 5 dollar a game for a copied xbox360 game

....Just played the DEMO....

Piece of Shit. Im tired of the underground stuff now. Like somebody said earlier, bring back the good ole need for speed games.

Lets see some. Porsche Unleashed, Hot Pursuit, Hot Pursuit 2...even Most Wanted wanst terrible...its fun running from cops.

I really miss Need for Speed II (my personal favorite). You guys remember how serious, creepy, and bjork-like the whole game and soundtrack was. It was like the game was saying, "love the came for the cars or dont play". Long live the secret Ford car in NFSII!!! (cant remember the name)

NFS 1, 2, 5 were much more attune to sim racers.... but even 3/4/6 had thier fun.... after 6, i just totally lost interest. There was nothing special about the cars anymore

I've owned every Need For Speed game ever made. My favorite by far was Need For Speed Porsche Unleased. The driving dynamics were spot on, you could tune the cars a little to make them a bit personal and a bit faster. I will not buy Carbon because I think they have sold out and have become to arcade-ish. Lets face it, Most Wanted was cool, but still basically sucked. I want a real racing game, Forza 2, here I come!
