Not really, in Germany they have no speed limit on some roads. They even have banked corners :)

In the UK most people are dangerous enough at 70 mph (our current limit) im guessing America is the same!

165 mph is my record, very scary!

'In the UK most people are dangerous enough at 70 mph'

Yeah.

SilentNegotiator4194d ago

I knew that. And I think it's psychotic.

hongthay4194d ago

Depends on where it is at. I think it should not be an immediate jump to 130, perhaps raising the limit by 5mph a year, or something similar.

That speed would only be on interstates in the US anyway, and is perfectly fine for the midwestern states, I think. Besides, even in the bigger cities, they like to keep traffic flowing. I don't know how many times I have been driving on the Ring around Atlanta doing speeds near that, along with everyone else.

Granted, Americans are not used to that speed in most areas, so it needs to be a gradual increase, not an instant near doubling of the current speed limit. Cars brakes are much better these days, and with the advent of lane departure warning and passive radar, it is going to be even safer to drive on interstates.

As bumnut, mentioned, Germany has no speed limit on most parts of the Autobahn, their interstate, pretty much. Also, in the US, Montana interstates have no speed limit.

Sucitta4194d ago

This game was awesome! I remember reloading my save if I didn’t get the pink slip from my blacklist rival

Looking Back to Two of Need for Speed's Best Games - Most Wanted and Hot Pursuit

Paul writes - "EA know a good thing when they see it, and for multiple years November was Need for Speed month. In a break from the usual routine, I'm going to be looking back at two games here, released in 2005 and 2010 respectively. The earlier game is Need for Speed: Most Wanted, which has the distinction of being one of the very best in the franchise. The second game comes from 2010, and is Need for Speed Hot Pursuit; which I'll talk about just as the Remastered version of the game has hit the stores."

Hotpursuit 2 was good as well.

I completely adore this game! In fact its probably my favorite racing game. I recently dusted off my xbox 360 to play Most Wanted 2005. Still a great game, though I do not remember there being such horrible performance. Like massive frame-pacing issues. screen tearing, latency. If any game ever truly needed to be remastered, it this one for sure!
