    First video is the first one I really like. :) “Use the mirror” or “making an error could end the race” sounds awesome!

  • TheSTIG

    Will we hit the “One-hundred previews” mark before it is out? :grin: Really i have the feeling i have already played the game from all these stupid videos…

  • Sensekhmet

    Looks – once again – breathtaking! Really hope you won’t need NASA mainframes to run it with 60FPS.

    I guess Turn10 will not like this game…

    This megane sounds different from the other one.. so it proves the other one wasnt stock (for those who were saying it).

    The “STIG” says we don’t need a demo. Read his post.

    Seems I misunderstood… sounded like you requested something you don’t see in the vid. Did you meant that you wan’t to play immediately? :weird:

  • Raikku

    Please, no more vids and guides!!!

  • carbonfibre

    Stop. Making. Videos.

    f0xx: The audio you hear from the videos is probably dubbed, don’t trust it. They scrutinize these things very closely when it comes to marketing

    I really like that London track guide. I can just imagine the fun the dev team had designing the route through their favourite London landmarks.

    I think we passed that mark about a month ago.

    i might be bias… but some reason i enjoy the SimBin commentator more when it comes to track guides.

    such as:
    1) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uD1I8-rlY-E Laguna Seca
    2) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1SFzVWDVLzM Road America

    if i’m to push it a bit further…
    3) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h4EdwXYrSHY GTR2 Trailer

    maybe i feel more enthusiasm / atmosphere out of that guy than the one from the shift videos… :weird:

  • f0xx

    Its only a matter of tastes.. most of NFS followers arent exactly Sim fans so those videos wouldnt attract that much…they need more spectacularity, even if it sucks :P

    That’s because he’s been commenting on motorsport in the UK for years. Not sure of his name… Martin something?
