Need For Speed: Shift - Most Realistic NFS Ever?

I began with NFS3. I loved it then and I love it today. Underground was the shit at that time, I still would play that if it weren't for the seven lap races. Underground two sucks. Most Wanted was and is awesome. Because, as already stated, it had a feel like the old days to it. Carbon was so bad I couldn't stand it. Pro Street is just weird, and not fun.

NOW. If Shift captures the racing spirit of the old days, and is fun, I'm getting it. If not, well there are plenty of alternatives.

By the way I can't watch that teaser, those fast paces are poison to my poor eyes.

3volvedcombat is right on that one. If I was to call it shit, the next sentence I wrote would not make much sense, no?
 
But where's the demo they promised for summer. Summer ends in 10 days :/

MRCL: pretty much agree you on everything you said. I have a feeling that you either like or hate the new game with me :) Though it'll be hard to compare the new one to anything but Porsche with driving feel, although with assists on it could be comparable to the rest.

Nordschleife could bring back memories of the first one, with it's long straights. Next one they make could bring back the long winding roads with beautiful scenery to drive along. We've had enough of the city racing. Something like this:

NFS SHIFT - The most gridier nfs ever. That should be the slogan. :D
 
Anyone play it yet? It looked pretty good from the reviews though the handling looked a little dodgy, kinda looked like the cars turned on a central pivot.

I was at a car show on September 6th and they had it there but I didn't bother playing it, mostly due to it pissing rain all day and it was extremely cold that day.
 
I'll tell you this Davek, I hated every need for speed since underground came out but after playing this, I can say this is a good game, its optimized good and plays good, theres no cheesy crap storyline like the other need for speeds, no girl to save, its just straight racing, and i'm loving it, and it runs better than every need for speed for a while, I can max this @ 1680x1050 with 4aa on my old 8800GS where as on Undercover, this same card couldn't even do medium at the same res with no AA.
 
I dont like it. Its a "replica" of GRID a sad replica...
