Next NFS announced!!

w00t! Subaru!!! i smell impreza!!!

*sigh* NFS is going downhill. Fast.

this is the last thing I would have ever expected from EA. I fear this will heavily promote street racing, which already is a very very bad thing. EA...reconsider?

Hm, I hadn't even looked at it from that angle.

street racing is real bad here in Orlando.

It's bad here in San Diego too, Jeff. It's a misdemeanour just to watch now. I'm not too thrilled with this news of the new NFS, but hopefully the talented editors will make some better cars out of it. I'm not a big fan of the imports :)

Ha NFS with imports and no supercars. Ha Ha. NFS is going from bad to worse!!!

Yes there are very tallented editors in NFS community. Editors can make a great game (NFS4) even greater but when a game is crap (like NFS6) then it will always be crap!!! And IMO NFS7 will be crapier!!!

Although I like many imports (Yes, I drive a Honda :p), I am sad to see NFS taking this direction. The actual game idea will probably sell big, and I will probably buy it myself, but it is certainly destroying the foundation that NFS created: that of giving...

...underpriveledged souls like us a chance to 'cannonball' in rare, exotic supercars. By introducing a game that uses easily obtained import cars, the glorious days of screaming down an ocean side road with the wail of a Ferrari V12 behind you and sirens in the distance is fading into oblivion.... :(

Nice said morrisdb

I like the street racing idea but if it's only Japanese manufacturers then it doesn't really sound fun. Too bad they couldn't do this with MCO.

Ain't the whole point of the NFS series is to promote the supercar, and being able to go 200+ mph? Imports can't hit that!!! I am a fan of Honda, but this will greatly detract from the NFS experience. And I agree with morrisdb about the Ferrari V12. You can add to that the V8 of the 360. I think Ferrari is the best exotic company out there.

I am very impressed to hear such good message...

I didn't expected it that NFS 7 will come, but I think that's very good idea, because of...
... Do you know about "Midnight Illegal Street Racing" or "Sega_GT"??!

It's somethin' like that & it makes a lot of fun to build/Paint(Your own NFSCar)-

I am waiting for it!! *~)

Imports: are nice for a single mom or teenage girl but are NOT meant to be dirtifying NEED FOR SPEED! The cars in this game have always been and should always be exotics>it just wouldnt be SPEEDY without them.

whats the name of that game again i hope i get it here in pakistan coz u know guys piracy seems to be a good thing here :P lol ya guys need any help in games ill upload my ftp pretty soon as soon as i get cable;)

one more ting are all thsese games for hot pursuit 2?? im confused

Let's get a new poll for the new NFS: love it, hate it, like idea but not as NFS, etc.

(please) ;)

Great idea, morrisdb. Done :)

i know what mike voted
mike knows what i voted
:) :)

*sarcasm*The official site for UG sure is gonna be cool. Can you guess what I voted?

You have any info on the official site for UG, Cap?

Nope, not yet. Haven't quite looked yet though.

ah ok, I thought from your other comment that perhaps you knew something. ;)

My opinion on the game is that I'm undecided as long as not more is known than just this; the style of cars doesn't really matter that much to me if they manage to make it an entertaining game. HP2 was a good example of a game that I wanted to like a lot when it was still in production, with its diverse roster of cars and its pretty graphics; but to my disappointment it just wasn't a very interesting game to play.
I think I could live with trading surface appeal for involving gameplay.

Don't worry, if I find something out, I'll tell you.

I hope so much that NFS: UG ends up like NFS: HP2 - that would be a shocker to the world.

why the hell are all of you saying that nfs underground will be crap? you people must be retards. NFS UNDERGROUND WILL BE THE BEST NEED FOR SPEED IF NOT RACING GAME EVER ON ANY CONSOLE.

You must be a retard. It's obvious you are a ricer. And this game is for ricers. EA is trying to copy Gran Turismo. Either that or they're changing Need For Speed to Need For Rice.

Hmm, it seems some of you arent viewing the correct angle that EA is viewing right now, which is understandable. Us "ricers" are some of the people that have helped made the car scene a lot larger to the newer generation. Now I myself dont like doing extreme stuff to my car (ie turning my car into a transformer) but I do like to modify import cars to acceptable performance and style.

This game isnt as intricate as the real thing but will give some of those people who are interested to get a taste of what its like.Also I see people referring it to being a Gran Turismo clone. I play GT from the day the first was released, and see no real relationship between this and the way GT handles car mods. In fact no visuals are done for GT to alter car looks, but UG does,

and also EA hopes to revolutionize the racing industry by doing what noone has been able to do accurately, sense of speed. For those of u haters whether u love muscle cars, exotic cars or u like imports but cant stand the mod scene, give the game a shot before making an accurate opinion about what the game is like. Just because its got "rice" written all over it doesnt mean the game is crap.

Besides I trust many of this communities talents (Fivespeed, Groundshaker, Dodge Boy, viper_gts to name a few) will create some awesome cars that can take advantage of this mod scene, not necessarily for "rice" kits but more for domestic or exotic, or even LM bodykits and accurate performance. I cant wait to see what you guys put out
