You will find yourself driving different cars JUST for the engines and transmission notes. BMW V12'sa re spine tingling, US V8's are stomach rumbling, Porsche flat 6's just sound right - and German V10's are amazing.

They got the sounds right. Well fucking done - about bloody time.
Just what i needed to know! Thanks RC!

I had decided to buy PS3 just to play GT5, now i will definetly check this out.

That sounds great!

Now when you say BMW V12... I'm going to assume that there's a McLaren F1? Yes? Please let it be a yes!

I got this one for PC and after getting my steering wheel setup right this is easily the best NFS ever. Physics are really good and the sound is even better! I am going to enjoy this one for a long time!

Yep, PC version.
The PS3 sits and collects dust in the living room. Which is kind of a drag, since the PS3 is hooked up to a 61" HD. One which I barely watch anyway, since I am always in the computer room.

Playing games on a 26" computer monitor, at a res of 1900x1200, isn't too bad though.

I'll be getting Forza 3 and GT5 for some console action.

Unlike you guys I love PGR and Grid. The sims are great too (Forza and GT). This game doesnt look very good. Ill wait for the demo

I enjoyed GRID too, and as far as I am concerned, if you liked GRID, you will enjoy SHIFT.

Proud owner of a Zonda R and Z06 works here. If any one want easy profile points id suggest drifting the oval track. 6 laps = about 4k points and 3 rounds so around 12 per race (i set up one quick race with 20 laps). Im a level 30 with 450+ stars.

haha, ok, I'm going to buy this one too. Thanks RC

I too was pretty surprised at this game. I would have liked some split screen multiplayer also. But its passable since it has a pretty accurate and good visual Nurburgring for time trialing :D
