Yes! We now have the car roster for the new NFS installment for consoles and PC, Need for Speed Shift (Xbox 360, PS3, PC, PSP).
It's a handsome line-up, I should say, with 18 authentic race tracks,
and over 65 pixel-perfect cars. The cover car: the coveted BMW M3 GT2.
*drool* Plus, there's also the track list for the game, as well as some screenshots of the BMW ride. |

It's official, Forza Motorsport 2 will be released in Europe on May 2007, on the same date as its North American release. The 35 cars from Ferrari Lamborghini, Maserati, and Porsche are fully customizable in the game. This means that you can pretty much pimp your ride from its engine all the way to its paint job and yes, there are full body kits. Interestingly enough, after lovingly modifying your ride, the car crashes and pile-ups are wonderfully detailed. So the long wait is coming to an end, put on your racing helmets and strap in, because Forza Motorsport 2 is coming very soon. You can click on "Full Article" to see the complete list of Porsche, Maserati, Lamborghini, and Ferrari cars available for Forza Motorsport 2. |

Non-gamers are used to collecting points, say for example web dollars or e-coupons, that they can later trade in for something. Nobody was more surprised than Microsoft entity Aaron Greenberg when their amazing brainstorm, the Gamerscore - the achievement points system that allows players to collect points and trade them in for absolutely nothing, turned out to be such a phenomenon.GameDaily has a feature on several gaming celebrities and gaming analysts' take on Gamerscores. Well skip over the opinions of most of the analysts, and we'll relay to you folks the take of someone that we feel you guys could relate a bit more to. Here's Cliffy B and his take on the obsession with the Gamerscore: It's nerd cred, man! ...It's so clever, I mean, it's just a score. You may say it can't be used for anything, but gamers use them for pride. They're pride points! You can compare it to the feeling you get when you pull up to a restaurant in a Lamborghini. People go, 'Oooo, he must be somebody.' In the virtual world of gaming, points create that same sense of rank and envy, and that's why gamers have latched onto them. I read that people are picking up the Burger King Xbox games just so they can score additional points. If that doesn't prove how well this program is working, nothing does. Yeah, it's all about pride and showing off your gamer-wang. That and the feeling that whatever it is you're doing in the game, matters - to yourself, and more importantly to a large gaming community. |

Here's another something to watch out for over at the Xbox Live Marketplace. Test Drive Unlimited downloadable content will soon be available for download, allowing you to have a peak at what lies ahead for you in the island of Oahu. Feel free to cruise through over 1600 km of road in your sweet ride. With six brand new cars to choose from, I can't imagine how that should be a problem. How sweet are the rides? Well, the Lamborghini Countach, Ferrari 250 GTO, and Noble one M400 among others, should be more than enough for you to gain multiple visits from the tooth fairy. The announcement came from Atari itself, and while no specific date has been set, the assurance is that it will be coming very soon. So just hang in tight there. Also, the price for this content is still a question, but it's pretty safe to surmise that it won't send you flying through the roofs given that the game itself is cheap. Test Drive Unlimited is the first MMOR racing game that allows you to compete with others both on and offline. Ain't life good? |
