Awesome.

BTW, what's with word "New" in all thread titles today?

 

[JaseC]

Awesome.

Pre-E3 reveals = a lot of new games.

 

[Router]

I am excited for a NFS game again.

 

[Dilly]

Sounds interesting, can't be worse than Undercover anyway.

I do hope they'll have cockpit view.

 

[adamsapple]

Sounds interesting, can't be worse than Undercover anyway. When is the EA conference?

Thanks!

 

[Lagspike_exe]

No more Underground racing.

That was the point of the game for the last... 10 years...

 

[rezuth]

Would anyone like to see bikes in need for speed?

 

[so1337]

So basically this is what I've been asking for for nearly ten years.

WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG?!

 

[Xater]

No more Underground racing.

Thank fucking god. That shit got boring by the second game.

 

[Mush]

Thank fucking god. That shit got boring by the second game.

And they perfected it by the third.

 

[reminder]

A new Hot Pursuit from the makers of Burnout? I'm in, as long as it's not open world style like Burnout Paradise.

 

[Router]

THANK FUCK they are going back to HP and ditching the bullshit underground racing fad.

 

[derFeef]

THANK FUCK they are going back to HP and ditching the bullshit underground racing fad.

Oh yeah, I HATED that night racing tuner crap.

 

[Diablohead]

Give us music like NFS3: hot pursuit and I will not complain.

I am rather burned out on NFS games and thought Shift was changing for the right direction, if they really want to go back to cop car chases I hope they drop the whole gang rude boy attitude and give us a huge open city experience like burnout paradise.

 

[agm2502]

I wonder if this will support project Natal seeing as Burnout was one of the games first shown with Natal.

Actually, they also have a simulation based Need For Speed coming out in Q1 2011 if you prefer that direction.

This is new news to me

Shift 2?

 

[Goldrusher]

I'll be happy if it's pretty much Burnout Paradise with real cars.

Very happy if it's in multiple real-life locations, either A-B events or city districts à la PGR.

 

[WanderingWind]

As long as you can customize your cars too, I'm with you. Though I'd also prefer open world too, with an option to jump directly race to race like Midnight Club.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Yus, another Need for Speed, definitely hot news

 

[To Far Away Times]

Hot Pursuit sequel? As in a sequel to NFS: Hot Pursuit 2? Day fucking one!

 

[which1spink]

Oh yeah, I HATED that night racing tuner crap.

First one was good though and brought some innovation (drag racing, tuning, online multiplayer). But after that, I agree, it was pure crap.

Criterion twitter:

Cat still in bag.

 

[derFeef]

Interesting...

 

[Lakitu]

Huh.

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Criterion twitter:

So theyre not working on that game, but yet a different one?

 

[SolidSnakex]

Criterion twitter:

EA has three NFS games they plan on releasing in their fiscal year. NFS World is one. You then have Criterion's and another. NFS: HP could be a new Black Box NFS.

 

[derFeef]

So theyre not working on that game, but yet a different one?

That's by no means certain. Maybe they have two games?

What happened to Slightly Mad Studios?

 

[NIN90]

The Hot Pursuit games were the best NFS games iirc.

 

[Denzar]

A Hot Pursuit game with Criterion awesome car destruction would be awesome though...

As long as it isnt a Wii exclusive Ill be up for it

 

[SolidSnakex]

What happened to Slightly Mad Studios?

I'm not sure. I just know that Black Box is working on another NFS game and that EA plans on releasing three NFS games in their fiscal year. Criterion's is supposed to come first so Black Box would be the Q1 2011 title.

 

[Router]

What happened to Slightly Mad Studios?

Working on Shift 2 I'm guessing.

 

[snoopeasystreet]

Had a lot of fun with hot pursuit back in the day. Looking forward to see what Criterion do with it.

I was kind of expecting Need for Speed: Burnout

 

[ram]

Working on Shift 2 I'm guessing.

and maybe this time, they wont release the game in alpha state :lol .

Criterion twitter:

They have outright denied the following on their twitter before though:

@slearl Well we can safely say this cat is NOT a gun game / snowboarding / Revenge / Paradise Burnout cat.... but few believe the truth!

 

[AlphaTwo00]

That's by no means certain. Maybe they have two games?

Possible. Criterion has always struck me as way too big given their output. Wiki lists their latest size at around 500, and even though there might be a bunch left as Renderware engine support, it's still seems awkwardly big for just one title.

 

[Ninja Moomin]

three NFS games in one year.... THEN WHY THE FUCK AREN'T CRITERION MAKING BURNOUNT, SSX OR ROAD RASH?


for fucks sake ea

 

[SolidSnakex]

Possible. Criterion has always struck me as way too big given their output. Wiki lists their latest size at around 500, and even though there might be a bunch left as Renderware engine support, it's still seems awkwardly big for just one title.

500 people? That can't be accurate. I can't think of any single studio that has that many employees.

I think that was written before the leaked images. It's pretty obvious by now it's NFS..

 

[Dedication Through Light]

Yeah but the two tweets for "the cat is still in the bag" "the cat leaving on a jet plane, etc" come like just 30-40 minutes ago

 

[REMEMBER CITADEL]

500 people? That can't be accurate. I can't think of any single studio that has that many employees.

Ubisoft Montreal has almost 2000. Of course, they are spread over several different teams.

 

[Concept17]

500 people? That can't be accurate. I can't think of any single studio that has that many employees.

Yeah, the biggest I'm aware of was Ubisoft's AC2 team...which was supposedly around 400-450 people I think.

 

[which1spink]

500 people? That can't be accurate. I can't think of any single studio that has that many employees.

Don't forget they certainly had a RenderWare dev and support team. It was last gen's UE3 if you will.

 

[Slayer-33]

Do they really need to add RACE to the fucking title? Who the fuck is in charge of the tacky racing game titles over at EA? Just name it like the previous one and reboot the franchise.. Good god.

 

[saladine1]

Here's a quote from an older tweet or whatever it's called
"False I'm afraid. We're doing this thing called Need for Speed. It's all about tarmac not snow."
