I love the NFS classics, Porsche 2000 is definitely my favourite. I gave up on the series after MW, but they say the new titles will be good again, so we'll see.
And yes, I think World Online only includes online multiplayer and is a PC exclusive. Nitro is an arcade racer for Wii and DS and Shift is supposed to be a real simulation racing game for PC, PS3 and 360. There's also a fourth one in development right now, based on the underground "scene" again, but I have no idea if that'll be the fourth one this year, or the sequel for Nitro or Shift.
I do find Most Wanted very Enjoyable, but im always Low on Cash :p

Undercover is EA's semi lackluster Most Wanted clone. It's like they tried to copy Most Wanted's fun with Pro Street's realism or whatever. It's not as cool as Most Wanted, it tries to be realistic. NFS games were fun because they weren't 100% realistic.
That just Sucks and i was almost gonna waste $40 on the Game.
Are there Mods or Extra things fro NFS Most Wanted and howcome theres no Night Time. :confused:
i hate Need For Speed
i loved the old classics NFS1-HP2. then this EA Black box Ruined NFS. turned its atmosphere to a junkie. street racing **** ass atmosphere. i hate NFS's pro street and undercover. i hate it when NFS is released each year. i hate EA. i still have NFS 3 and its music and atompshere is way better than the new games.
Hmm i wonder if NFS 1 + 2 still exists, maybe i should try it, but i am having fun with NFS Most Wanted.
Need for Speed High Stakes is the BEST!!!! I've been playing it again after all these years and it's the awesomeness. Gorgeous cars and gorgeous tracks is all I need. :cool:
I stopped liking NFS when it turned all "Fast and Furious" though. :( It feels repetitive and I liked the sports cars in the older games better..
High Stakes is awesome, as is Underground 2 and Most Wanted.
Undercover on PS2 is terrible.
Cant wait for NFS Shift :D
Loved NFS Porsche Unleashed. :tmb: Not too interested in playing the more recent games though.

You can keep racing the completed races over and over to build up money. Also, if you win a blacklister's pink slip, you can always sell their car for some extra cash.

I don't really know should I have made a new thread, but I guess I'll bump this one. Is anyone getting (or already got) Shift? I gave up on the series some time ago, but the new style, the real tracks, getting rid of "the streets" and the amazing reviews it's getting are making me change my mind. I'm definitely getting it this Friday and I can't wait! :jmp:

Need for Speed SHIFT is out September 17th in Europe and September 15th in North America. It will be available on Xbox 360®, PLAYSTATION®3, PC and PLAYSTATION®PORTABLE (PSP) as well as on Mobile and iPhone.
Need for Speed™ SHIFT is an award-winning authentic racing game that combines the true driver’s experience with real-world physics, pixel-perfect car models, and a wide range of authentic race tracks. Need for Speed SHIFT takes players in a different direction to create a simulation experience that replicates the true feeling of driving high-end performance cars.
Players are thrust into the loud, visceral, intense, athletic experience of racing a car on the edge of control from the driver’s perspective through the combination of perception based G-forces, the hyper reality of the cockpit view, and the brutal experience of a first person crash dynamic. Need for Speed SHIFT features an accurate, accessible physics-based driving model that allows you to feel every impact, every change of track surface and every last bit of grip as you push yourself to the edge.
The all-new driver profile is the ultimate extension of the true driver’s experience. This system gives each player a unique persona based on a player’s driving skill and style - aggressive or precise. Driver profile impacts how a player unlocks cars, overall career progression and online matchmaking. In Need for Speed SHIFT, how you drive is who you are behind the wheel.
Need for Speed SHIFT is being developed by Slightly Mad Studios in collaboration with Black Box and senior vice president Patrick Soderlund at EA Games Europe. Slightly Mad Studios includes developers and designers that worked on the critically acclaimed games GT Legends and GTR 2.
Key Features
- True Driver’s Experience – A variety of visual cues delivers the true driver’s experience including a three-dimensional HUD that mimics driver head movement, inertia and G-forces. The depth of field also adjusts based on the speed of the car; so when the car is traveling at high speeds the perspective will shift to the distance putting the car/cockpit out of focus.
- Driver Profile – What kind of driver are you? Driver profile tracks the player’s evolution as a race driver from event to event. This system is made up of a driver’s personality on the track, their success rate and any profile points and badges accrued all of which work together to create a tailor-made career and game play experience. Driver profile is pervasive throughout all modes: career and online.
- Dynamic Crash Effect - When the player hits a static object or opponent car, the player will feel like they are 'taking damage'. A combination of visual and audio effects will leave the player disorientated and briefly disrupt the race.
- Total Customization – Need for Speed SHIFT features a comprehensive customization option that lets the player tailor every aspect of the cars performance and styling. Go under the hood to upgrade and tune your vehicle to increase its performance. The visual customization system allows players to personalize both the exterior and trick out the interior to reflect their individual style and preferences.
- Photo Real Cars and Tracks – Nearly 70 licensed cars are available including the Pagani Zonda F, Audi RS4, and Porsche 911 GT3 RSR. There is also over 15 real-world locations like Willow Springs and Laguna Seca as well as fictional circuits like downtown London and Tokyo.
