If nothing else, REMAKE THE FIRST GAME!

More companies should look at this, there are a lot of games that deserve a remake, no changes at all, just new engine.

The closest game to NFS today is Test Drive Unlimited, real cars, real roads, cant say about music because the only music I care about in a car, its the engine sound, thats music :rockout:

For the game that brought free roam wasn´t a NFS, it was Midtown Madness from Microsoft, it was a nice racing game just because of this.

NFS died with NFS2, after that EA is only using the name to make money.

lol, carbon is a cheap underground version of most wanted....most wanted is by far better with graphics, game engine, particle effects, motion blurr, compatibility witth vista.
and in carbon you coudnt drive a damn Audi le mans quattro which was the main attraction of carbon.
alot of people hate carbon coz thought you'd be able to drive the audi... but noooooo.....only in quick races....completely ruined the fun for everyone.

People change car bodies all the time. Weight distribution also comes from the wheelbase you choose. There is nothing incorrect with what I said so no need to try to correct it. :laugh:
Changing a body doesn't change wheelbase. Only changing suspension pickup points and/or frame lengths interior of the pick-up points changes the wheelbase. The only way changing a body changes the wheelbase is when you have a unibody car, and if you change a unibody, it's an entirely different car, as the unibody IS the car. The subframes and suspension pieces bolt to it.



Thats what you shifted the conversation into. Not what the thread was about. The thread was about NFS games and not reality. That would be for a car forum not a tech forum.

Except I said the scope of the conversation, not the thread.

idk i think so...it would be better to do them like every 2-3 years because that way there can be an actual change to games and thyr graphics etc.
