Recommended Posts

Everyone says the same thing every time a new Need for Speed game comes out, Oh there going back to roots and it looks so good and so on, but the game sucks every time, i am tiered of EA making a cool trailer for a new game and everyone goes its so cool then you hear them bitching the game sucks when they get it and then when a new game comes out its like the forgot about the last one they played and starts all over again. Never again EA, never Again. I am tiered of you taking my money for your over priced, buggy games.

The most wanted games and NFS: Shift were good. And this game basically looks like a remake of the classic hot pursuit games so it looks like its gonna be fun to me. Loved those games.

Not sure where you get the idea that they say that every time as they haven't had a proper "Hot Pursuit" game since Hot Pursuit 2 back in 2002. All the others haven't been anything like the originals, where as this looks to be going back to what the originals were all about (cops chasing speeders).

I'm really excited about this game. My only concern is that, while Criterion makes fun games they are really, really repetitive. Burnout: Paradise was as repetitive as they come, no variation whatsoever, gameplay never really evolved throughout the game. Hopefully they manage to do something about that, mix things up and open up new stuff as the player progress. ( Not just piling on cars in the same races and environments )

I've never had much trouble getting NFS3 to work on XP, and if I remember correctly you could substitute the Direct3D dll from NFS4 and get it working much better. Oddly NFS4 was always a much bigger pain to get working on XP for some reason and Porsche Unleashed always had that annoying swap file problem. I think deleting gimme.dll was one of the workarounds for that.

Porsche was the last game in the series I played before they turned it into a Fast and the Furious ghetto ricer clone.

OK, that demo video has erased most of my interest in the game. It looks like a dumbed-down version of Burnout (i.e. it stops the action every few seconds to warn you of an impending hazard which you can see or hear clear as day anyway), only with cops and real cars.

The current list of cars:

Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione

Audi TT RS Coupe

Bugatti Veyron 16.4 (cop only)

Chevrolet Camaro SS

Dodge Challenger SRT8

Dodge Viper SRT10

Ford Shelby GT500

Koenigsegg CCX

Lamborghini Gallardo LP 570-4 Superleggera

Lamborghini Murcielago LP 670-4 SV

Lamborghini Reventon (cop)

McLaren MP4-12C

Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG

Nissan GT-R SpecV (R35)

Pagani Zonda Cinque

Porsche Cayman S

Porsche Panamera Turbo :pinch: they could've included a M5 :shifty:

    • Surprise! We still can't get it right. With the current state of AI, the crappy software, the huge mega-corporations that back all of these idiot things, I think we are a very long way away from SAE Level 5. I, for one, will never get in one.
    • Nice. September/October GA?! I'll keep following it, but won't install any preview or beta versions.
    • Wow, that could have been dangerous, certainly not ready for these things. They have to be 100% or pretty well close to it. Not that I will see one i doubt, never mind ride in one, they may have them in London, but I doubt they will come to where I live.
    • Nothing kills CMF Phone 2 Pro's successor due to rising memory prices by Hamid Ganji Storage and RAM prices have been rising over the past year, leading to a significant increase in the cost of electronics for customers around the world. Many companies are now revising their plans for upcoming devices due to higher component costs and overall production expenses. CMF is the latest company to cancel the successor to one of its best-selling phones due to rising memory prices. CMF is a sub-brand of Nothing and focuses on making budget smartphones for growing markets. The brand launched the CMF Phone 2 Pro last year with some eye-catching specifications and an affordable price. While many customers may have been waiting for a successor this year, one of the company’s executives has announced that CMF will not release a new smartphone this year. And AI is to blame. As Nothing co-founder Akis Evangelidis announced on X, the company has been working on a successor to the CMF Phone 2 Pro, but with current memory prices, it cannot “build a phone that feels like a genuine step forward at a price that makes sense for CMF.” So, no new CMF phone will be launched this year. Meanwhile, Evangelidis said the company still has several new products in the pipeline, including some in entirely new categories. He added that the Nothing brand will also continue launching new products through 2026. Budget smartphones are among the first victims of the surge in RAM and memory prices, as they have become more expensive to build. The sharp increase in memory costs could also reshape the traditional price ranges associated with budget phones. Apple CEO Tim Cook also recently said that price increases for some of the company’s products are unavoidable because RAM and memory have become significantly more expensive this year. Analysts estimate that the base price of the upcoming iPhone 18 Pro could rise to $1,399 due to current market shortages.
    • Nudge me when they bring back hardware audio acceleration so I can get my EAX 5 back. We've evolved graphics to real-time path tracing, but regressed audio some 15 years back in time with this stupid software audio stack.
