Member when NFS games had more than just shit-hop?

I member.

Nostalgia is a powerful influencer...

EazyC933d ago

Damn. EA were insane for not doing this themselves ages ago. I think this is literally exactly what tons of NFS fans wanted. An EXACT remaster of NFSU 2. Nothing added, just the pure game but nicer looking.

DarXyde933d ago

EA and Activision are weird companies.

They're at the top, and when they make changes, they're usually awful. When they keep things the same, they need to change. They haven't really figured out what works and what doesn't.

I want the original underground… To the window! To the walls!

Retro Runback: 'Need for Speed Underground 2'

VICE:

Doing these Retro Runback pieces on GameCube games always makes me feel old. I mean, at this point, it’s been over 20 years since its release. So, it counts as retro — it just hurts to acknowledge it. This time around, it’s one of my favourite racing games of all time: Need for Speed Underground 2.

There may be racing games that have surpassed this one over the years, but I never had more fun with a racing game than I did with Underground 2.

Yes, but good news! Tokyo Xtreme racer is coming back! Early access release January 20th and full release later in the year.

The hours I've spent on TXR Zero back in the day. Literally played that game for about 3-4 YEARS.

DivineHand125165d ago (Edited 165d ago )

Nfs has been giving us the same mechanics over and over again. They have recently been leaning more into street racing because of popular demand from the fans, but they aren't quite there yet.

I would suggest they simply remake the NFS underground series, and in 2005, most wanted and go from there after getting the baseline of what the fans want.

cammers1995165d ago

Well, they should remake underground and underground 2.

Retroman164d ago

They should remake Hotpursuit 2, Highstakes, Underground also

Tra-D214165d ago

I wish Rockstar would remaster Midnight Club Dub edition and Midnight Club LA

Soy165d ago

Peaked with Most Wanted on the 360, been mediocre since.

underground 1 and 2 are still the best ones.

isarai181d ago

And they're spent every game after that trying to chase that high and never meeting it

Ninver180d ago

Makes you think if gamers are looking to relive nostalgia or each dev that has attempted to mimic the glory days are just incompetent?

DarXyde180d ago

Truth. Loved Midnight Club.

I wouldn't be mad at another proper Underground or Most Wanted (PS2/X360) entry though.

Out of 30 years Ea Canada made all PS1 versions they were New and Exciting then Blackbox Studio took over all were Fantastic.
