No, nfs hs will always be the best, I don't know what can be better than this. It has great cars, great tracks around the world, cops, be the cop mode, damage, driving on rain, on snow, on sand, good tuning option, in car camera, car showcases, history, car pictures, great career mode with a lot of high stakes and challenges, replay and ghost mode.

Here's a piece of advise Mustang Man. Try not to think that the next NFS is going to be the best ever, cause the deception might be huge.
Undercover, like Carbon, was supposed to be one of the best games of the year, and look what happened, voted by Gamespot as one of the most deceiving game of 2008.
Anyway, is too soon to evaluate this game. As far as we know, it doesn't bring in nothing new.

hold on! 2nd and 3d of new NFS's on the screens have same graphics engine as ucover ...well it looks like. the awfull render. idk EA aiming to gameplay again (so its just next "family"). Well if my thoughts are correct. I dont know maybe EA is a gangster's syndicate that making 1 way products from 2003 may be not but (smiling) they did making a similar each to each products.
------
Look at Shift game screen. perhaps it has same engine. half of objects are hardly shadowed. I think this engine are looks exactly as Crysis game engine...i hate that! / I vote YES because i hope things above are 1 mile away from real things.
------
lol...How about start making a GAMES - not the sound of it (!)
---ADDED
...And just because text above does not make any sence, here's another suggestion - HOW ABOUT MAKE HIGH STAKES 2 Or somthing like that even that will be as 3d variation in same year like in 09. (?)

Which Matt are you talking to, is it me? Anyway I do like the older NFS better. The 3 I have are NFS5 Porsche Unleashed 2000, NFS6 Hot Pursuit 2 & NFS Most Wanted. I do hope the new SHIFT will be great, but lets wait & see, I still bet it might not going to be the best NFS games ever. I usually like games that you can add on & replace stuff, so I hope it's possible to do it in more newer games.

well it is trus that is way too soon to say that NFS Shift gonna BE the thing. for racing games cumming up with something really new is kinda hard but always room for improvement. for the moment i play NFS carbon like mad mostly because of the car list please me as well as the autosculpt feature but still it ain't THE racing game experience. as for NFS Shift at last car interiors ( which now will be worth it to play 1st person ) the car list, options and race modes will be the key for sure. the graphics will need to be up to date and i hope that for once tuning and modifying the car will affect performance, i was liking the wingman idea but turned out as a faillure in carbon.

a racing game with a story i don't mind but it has to be good and those fast & furious stories were lame from the start, darn i'd like to be in the gaming business.. i'd do one hell of a game

I think that a story is not really necessary. They can make the game more similar to GRID: Race Driver or Gran Turismo, I mean that the main story might be your own progression in the game, instead of those useless, and somehow stupid, stories of previous nfs games. The more you progress the more money you earn, so you can buy more cars or even pay the entrance fee to a tournament...something like that, you know?
And about customization, well, I don't see how they can use autosculpt in a "professional racing" game. It would be nice if they are able to let you create bodykits for supercars, but not as the bodykits they have been using in the last installments, instead, I would prefer real bodykits and customizations like the Le Mans ones.

Yeah I prefer real bodykits & aftermarket brands. I also hope it features many new cars that have never been available on any games before.

Will try to figure out my thoughts.
Users happy to enjoy something new in games but oftenly new is coming with skinned smell of...sorry old. You see, lot of talented games comes with big case of fantasy (from creators). You see nobody talking about what if "most wanted" will have rich car behavior or full usage of this great city.I still wonder about non-sensed LANless online minimalism from EA side. (EA was greatest after unlucky '99 starting from 2000 till 2004. But then somethin goes wrong). I know i want to see additions to my old NFSHS. Like slalom mini games. Before race brake competition or Test Drive mode...(in old HS). Those futures in new nFS's will looks sad. But expanding already great... -  whats wrong with that? Also real car video i the game is being big boost. Replay montaging... why those futures cannot build a Rang, Class or Style in Racing game. Why racing ideal is painting the car... OR fighting with personal keyboard even it is nice on the screen - talking about racing games overally. If the High Stakes wasnt called High Stakes or have no number 4 - ive call it - ..These great game where prists,child,receptionist, bandit can just sit and enjoy car driving or learning cars industry from 1900 till these days or something... HAVING JUST FUN?!

P.S. Pro Street was the Top of illusion.

ADDED:
Be nice if creators start inliving games by adding retro looks in it. OR building non-undepending style.

I prefer the old NFS games, but I don't either think NFS Shift will be great or not.

Shift looks very impressive from the screenshots and videos, hopefully it doesn't fail like Pro Street did when EA wanted to make NFS more of a sim.
