The game implements a more progressed physics system which takes into account the degradation of the vehicles, and also added night races. The Silvia is one of the most popular cars to ever be embraced by the tuning and performance community, and the Murcielago happens to be one of the fastest production cars in the world.Need for Speed Shift 2 Unleashed - This is a popular auto simulators Need For Speed continuation. To add a bit more incentive, customers who pre-order Shift 2 will have instant launch-day access to 3 exclusive cars:Īn interesting combination of vehicles to say the least, and certain to appeal to very different demgraphics. EA has already discussed the failings of GT5, and if the already-announced vehicles are anything to go by, they certainly won't be coming up short - where quality is concerned. This groundbreaking network had been carried over to Shift 2 Unleashed, connecting friends in head-to-head races and comparing player stats for the ultimate social racing competition."Īpparently fans of racing may have a simulation game that appeals more to them than intimidating titles like Gran Turismo 5 or Forza Motorsport.

In fact, the social aspects of Hot Pursuit worked so well for the team at Criterion, Shift 2 will be carrying the tradition over:
Where Hot Pursuit seemed to emphasize adrenaline-fueled high speed chases, the teaser trailer for Shift 2 appears more focused on giving a realistic simulation of the intense world of competitive racing.Īccording to EA, the two games don’t have to be mutually exclusive.

EA has to be happy with the success of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit among the arcade fans, and are set to bring us a different sort of game when Shift 2 Unleashed is released next year. Finding a way to create a game that offers something new for either the hardcore simulation crowd or the arcade racer fans is a difficult task. In recent years, the racing genre has become somewhat of a minefield for developers and publishers alike.
