I still won't forgive EA for killing this franchise. This and Strike series.
100% this.
And i would add that killing the essence of Need for Speed should also go to the records of ad things they did.

Gritty reboot. They is more appealable to the peeps.Spiritual Successor time.
If one does get made I hope that it follows the same formula. A handful of short tracks that get longer each level, not some circuit based game like they did with NFS2 and 3/HP.
LMAO. That's so blatantly stupid and direct of a title that I'm laughing so hard right now.
At this point in 2013, I don't understand why estabilished developers haven't realized yet that Kickstarter is the solution to everything. If you really want it, put that shit on Kickstarter and let people speak with their wallets, for chrissakes.
Was this guy involved in any capacity with 3DO RR? I love that game and play the pc port all the time. I would back this.
I'd love this to happen. It'd be even more amazing if he could tempt Rob Hubbard back to do the music. The Road Rash games have some of the best music on the Mega Drive.

Road Rash 64 was published by THQ.

Did you ever approach them about it? Or vice versa?Well, there was this which surfaced a few years ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvHz2u-33Y4 (I see this guy is talking Kickstarter too)
Road Rash was on a list of things EA was kicking around to reboot around 4 years ago.

DGeisler said:Ok. Shutting up now. Well not just yet. Im doing an AMA tomorrow.
wonderboy2402 said:I would certainly pledge on a kickstarter for a road rash game. But please, keep the it mature and not kiddy it up with cartoony caricature players and bikes.
DGeisler said:Done
ImOnProbation said:So long it has nothing to do with EA and you make it challenging, I'm keen as mustard!
DGeisler said:I;; have to talk to my friends at EA probably. But they couldn't be involved in any design decisions at all. If that doesn't fly start thinking of another name. The key is the adrenaline rush.
Ge3d said:How do we go about showing you we want it? WE WANT IT.
DGeisler said:Coming right up sir!

you put your hands up to steer your bike, steering through the turns. you're sitting on your couch, just cruising along.
suddenly, some bikers from a rival gang surround you. you need to take one hand off the handlebars and start punching he dude on your right. you begin to slow down slightly, so you must regain your hand position on the bars.
the dude on the left is getting closer. you switch hands and put your right hand back on the handlebars and then start elbowing the dude on the left, breaking his nose. you notice he has a chain whip hanging off the side of his bike. you reach down to grab it and then begin whipping both the bikers on the left and right of you while still attempting to maintain control over your bike.
If you're in first person view, the headtracking allows you to see the bikers up close but, be careful, while you're able to deal more damage by looking at the dudes beside you and landing better hits, you lose sight of the road and risk wiping out.
depending on how the racing/ fighting ratio is worked out, and the dynamics of the attack gestures, this could be the best game ever or the bestest game ever.
I know people shit their pants whenever they hear "Social integration", but a new Road Rash could be a game where they work. Imagine something along the lines of what Evolution is promising with Drive Club, only instead of car clubs you form motorcycle gangs and battle with other gangs online for control over parts of the big open-world city.
This week I'm looking into the feasibility of funding a new motorcycle combat game with KickStarter.
