Oh dear god let it die, its been milked to hell and back, and gets worse with every incarnation!

Hmm I love the Transporter movies, but they aren't really about street racing so I'm not sure how good that would be.

I just want another Underground/Most Wanted/Carbon style game. I don't care if it isn't original.

hmm seen Transporter ages ago and iirc he was driver for hire so based on that it sounds to me like mix of some missions in nfs porsche where u had to deliver car, drive boss to train station, show drive a client around to make him buy a car (or 2 if u did it well ) and courier missions in tdu. Then for earned cash u'd buy/upgrade car.

Hopefully it won't be as dire as the last two.

Sounds like GTAIV

LOL this is EA, the Dr Raj Persaud of the games world

Why don't they just take all the NFS games, put them all together into one game, add some additional content then release it. NFS:Ultimate or something. Maybe add online play to it.

After that, let the franchise die, or even add a career mode where you can have your own character and make it more Fast and the Furious like while they are at it.

And again, this is EA, the horse is still stumbling around on its legs so it can carry on getting a flogging

Carbon & Prostreet were really poor.

Most Wanted was probably the best in the series and needs a sequel.

 

[Wizzfizz]

I'd be interested in a new Underground game. By far the best of the new NFS series.

Still got my 3DO and NFS.

 

[Neolink]

Underground 1 and 2 were great, Rest have been awful since then

 

[Ogs]

Underground 1 and Most Wanted were awesome, the rest were just poor Hopefully giving them 2 years now to make a game should bring back some goodness.

 

[dirtydog]

The titles most guaranteed to sell huge quantities must be either NFS Underground 3, or NFS Most Wanted 2. Don't try and reinvent the wheel; just give us more games with that formula, with a bit of a graphics update.

hmm , im i the only thinking this is game is going to be like driver? great game but i wonder if ea can pull it off. only time will tell i guess.

 

[Turtles]

I hated NFS ProStreet. Where did all the street racing go and the police? That was what made NFS. NFS Hot Pursuit was the best imo Hope they make it better than recent releases!

 

[Echo]

Stuff NFS, roll on Flatout - Ultimate Carnage!

 

[psychas]

wtf transporter gay theme they should have just made underground 3 with better graphics more cars big city good multiplayer options and good damage = wining formula

 

[*Chris]

underground's were good, most wanted was good, carbon was ok, prostreet was naff.

hope this is more underground / most wanted than prostreet.

Sounds like GTAIV

It does except that Porsche Challenge (aka NFS: Porsche 2000) was released about 8 years ago now so it rather got the jump on GTA IV I'd have to say. The tragic fact is that I still think it is the best out of the NFS series as well, probably the most balanced arcade racing game I've ever played even.

I'll probably get NFS Undercover as well just to keep up with the series but I'm not holding out huge hopes for it at the moment.
