    How come everyone hates this game long before it is released? What's with the obsession with graphics? I see a lot of undeserved negative energy here. I think the game looks rather good.

    I must truly say Nintendo has a miss after the two Burnout games. This is the first with not just the nitro but the drifting and sliding is the first addition to the Need for Speed made for the Wii. I'm glad its an arcade game and not a simulation. As long as music can get my heart pumping as well as the sound department.

    30 licensed cars? Even midnight club LA had 40+ and they were highly detailed.

    It's not a competitor of Forza. Not really the same kind of game / target player.

    this need for speed looks more like burnout....

  • NightAngeI

    Posted Jun 5, 2009 8:40 am PT

    Looks extremely repetitive. I personally won't keep a lookout for this one

  • Evilhen88

    Posted Jun 5, 2009 8:12 am PT

    it looks quite good

  • masterlucas92

    Posted Jun 5, 2009 8:09 am PT

    It looks like they focus the game on speed, and I'm pretty sure it will be a lot more fun than that realistic piece of **** of need for speed prostreet.

    It's a shame though it doesn't have online.

    Like a bad burnout replica.

    looks like a "Burnout" replica......

  • highlar

    I like how this game is shaping up. Doesn't have online? *shrugs* Won't hurt me much. I really like the own it thing, where your logo goes up on the world whenever you are in first place. And I like how smoothly it transitions between cars that take over first place and the world logo. It looks like its running smooth (solid 60 FPS) and fast. What more could you ask for from a NFS game?? The control scheme looks different, and could be interesting too, although I'll probably be using the wheel.
