So are they going to make a new NFS every year but with the only change being stats to match the appropriate vehicle? Like will a Veyron in NFS 2013 be slightly faster in NFS 2014? Oh the excitement!

NFS died after carbon. It sorta came back in Undercover but the there is just too much shit in the cat litter tray and it makes me sad that a great game series is now a cash-cow. [sp]NFS Underground is still the best[/sp]

RIP NFS, you were good.
but NFS is illegal street racing, how does it even fit?
[QUOTE=Rika-chan;42771653]Carbon was fucking great[/QUOTE] Carbon is criminally underrated. Also Hot Pursuit 2010 and Most Wanted 2012 were pretty good, and Rivals is looking hella good as well. From the trailers it looks like they are combining the look of Hot Pursuit 2010, the driving of HP2010 mixed with MW2012, actual performance upgrades of the original MW/Carbon games and the personalization of Carbon/MW (save for bodykits :( ). When the game comes out and you actually have to buy cars with ingame money (like MW05/Carbon) I'll be ecstatic. I fell in love with the cars I used in those games because they were mine. Recently it's just been "here's a porsche 911 carerra you can change the colors on it." [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XFEgFAZVJug[/media] Rivals is looking to be pretty much everything I want out of the last few NFS games save for bodywork. The era of MW2005/Carbon may have died with World, but I certainly won't complain about this new type of need for speed. It's just a shame Criterion Games died in the process.

[QUOTE=Spectre1406;42771793]but NFS is illegal street racing, how does it even fit?[/QUOTE] It never was only about illegal street racing. Only stupid kids who never played old NFS games don't know about that. Oh, and good luck to EA for not getting worst company award 3rd time. They gonna need it.

Also I'm not sure races through countryside can be counted as street racing.
