NFS: Shift - Big Updates

Lots to cover today, we'll start with the car of the week.


This week's Select car is the SpecV version of the fantastic Nissan GT-R. The SpecV is based on last year's Japanese entry to the Supercar standard but with a few modifications, mainly to the bodywork to reduce the weight while increasing the power delivered to the mid-range gears. All great info if you're able to afford the car (and live in Japan) but for those of you just looking to race the car in SHIFT then the key thing you need to know is that it's huge fun to play in the game. It's probably one of the most drivable cars in the game; if you fancy yourself as a bit of a gymkhana-wannabe then this is one of the best cars to play with... forwards, backwards, sideways... it's a huge amount of fun to drive.

Need for Speed SHIFT is out September 15th in Europe and 17th in North America. To pre-order the game click here.



As an added bonus, here is the wallpaper.

Next, is the Need for Speed: Shift game opening video

I've got more screenshots on the way, however, I misplaced the link to the original files to convert, and so this will be delayed briefly.

until then, check out some High Resolution shots at Needforspeed.com and as always check out all the SHIFT screenshots Here.

People just don't seem to understand that there are no Ferraris in NFS anymore, do they?

A proper name for this would be NFS Gran Turismo. -_- NFS has lost it's fun putting this thing out..The whole point of NFS is the chases XD. Nitro has them but it's only coming to the kiddy platforms Wii and DS WTF was EA thinking not putting it out for PS2 & PS3 as well?
