E3 2009: NFS SHIFT Live Demo, Part 1

[Meopeen]

the graphics are the same as "GRID" and it seems that control is not good

[satkeerat757]

Need for speed shift is a good game. but EA should really really make their next nfs game like underground series. People want illegal street racing. PLZ PLZ i beg u EA

[itzalexplox]

@satkeerat757 Stfu

[BrandonGTA1]

he eh passing no body

[supercamera360]

This guy dosen't know how break?

[krautkillerelendil]

this guy doesn't know how to spell?

[DragKiingX2000]

WICKED GAME!

[DragKiingX2000]

this is AS good as GRID!

[firepants20]

even though the beta would crash and the xbox beta would try to connect to the ps3 store xD other than that its cool

[adrijuan13]

adrijuan13!!!!!!!!!! best nfs videos!!!

[StephenSuttie1974]

After playing F3 demo. This game is getting swapped.

F3 is a beautifull game, not just graphics wise.

NFS Shift is an assauly on the senses.

I player it in Cockpit view at first, now im on outside camera view which is much easier. Still the handling is twitchy as hell.

I cant wait to get my mits on F3. Worth buying a 360 wheel for.

[ChampChong]

but it is a fun game (nfs). wtf is up with forza screwing up in the cockpit. i was playing the demo and when i switch gears (i play manual) nothing happens. his hands dont move off the wheel. please explain... and the graphics are nothing special, ok but not what i was expecting because of all the hype. gt5 will destroy both of these games!

[wargenie]

i know a person who used to race and teaches to race, he says its realistic.

[StephenSuttie1974]

Serious?

I know you need to feather the brakes and throttle like mad.

So Shift is pretty accurate.

What car does this person drive to teach peeps?

[skowerek123]

Reborn for NFS Series after this crap like Undercover etc.

[slam2dunkz63]

by the way thats sarcastic he IS SHIT

[slam2dunkz63]

HE IS TOO GOOD AT THAT GAME

[SatanicTerror]

shitty arcade-racing game........ and they call this "The Real Drivers Expierience"????? Every kid can play this shitty game perfekt!

[prayfawind]

I don't like it some annoying shit going on the PC version

1. To exit the game have to pressing ctrl+alt+delete.

2. There's no way you could change the control,video,music,etc setting without exiting the game then restarting the whole shit.

3. The overall experience of the game feels shitty, uninstalling this shit right now

[tiawatha]

why would the cockpit go blurry at high speeds? it doesnt..seems lame that you cant see your gagues when your going fast

[TheCOM1993]

why da fuck are they talking about first person shooters for a racing game

[andreah2o]

1:20 if u crash on a wall u unlock DRAFTING!? AHAHHAAH

[GloveMC]

That girl is so pretty and hot!!

[Proton1]

Jessica is hot. Won't convince me to buy the game though, but just saying.

[acidtripz1]

she is smokeing hot. :D but this looks amazing for a racein game

[ryowatanabi]

if only they new that if they made a need for speed like most wanted again, they could sell out

[papasmurfrulez]

ah so thats y it look so bad, hes playing it on the xbox. explains everything. :P:P

[shawnleenassim]

can you add boost gauges in your car? and like a sparco steering wheel?

[vintimv001]

3:00 a hyundai?

[ozilevin200]

No its a infinity g35

[ResidencijaZLA]

No, it was an Infinity G36.

[vintimv001]

g36? wtf dont u mean the g35

[55544338]

4 more days

[1966ANG]

they disabled real damege.....

[Shinzok1]

WTF , he crashed into the wall with 137 km/h , ehm doesn't that affect the cars handling or is he driving a tank ?

[cumtomyh0use]

kinda ahahahahahaahahahahhaaha

[vtnsx]

this level of details and graphics still aint good enough for me to buy the game. I'll just spend my 8 hours making real money and get a real car for racing. Fuck video games

[shaboooya]

lol same but i cant drive

[rotfuchs14]

but you can´t drive racing cars in real ;)

[MrJackbob]

this guy sounds like he should be playing fps not racing sim :D

[ballisstix]

They actually said that the jarring and shaking was inspired by most modern fps games, so there you go! :D

[wietne]

street racing is out.

That was in the days of the fast and the furious and 2fast 2furious.

now the illegal isn't that popular anymore which makes it harder to make a very good racing game. allthough i think this one 's gonna be pretty good

[sakeebforlife]

i dont care what type of racing the game has, i jus love racing! NFS is the best!

[samtheinsaneshred]

i think they should make an underground 3 and call it a day

[NoGripRacingGTR2]

i hope theres 24h races i love that

[DBLZ12]

Are you sure you people want to go back to street racing after what we saw from undercover?

I'm sick of these street racing fanboys saying this is shit, with the most shit excuses "This is a copy GRID" or "Street raing is better!" NFS is not about Street racing! it is just about the passion of racing.

If they stick to one type of racing,that is not very passionate is it?

It's called TRYING SOMETHING NEW.

[nothingelsetodo69]

THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMENT! those fanboys suck...

[DBLZ12]

From what we saw from undercover,i'm glad they didn't go back to the streets.

[meldrian]

yah, new indeed. but the thing is, some ppl prefer the illegal street feeling whereby they like to customize their rides. its just that. all and all, this game still ok for those still wanting the illegal street race just because of the graphics. and in my opinion, i get all bored after underground 2 and yes i still play underground 2 'coz i like the gameplay and yeah, its the raacing parts makes me wanna keep the game. coolest NFS ever, NFS:U2

[itzalexplox]

@DBLZ12 Couldn't say it better my self.

[lazorize]

@DBLZ12 so i like need for speed but yea u rigth

[TheHardestDance]

I hope this is not the final version...

[JackDatBoi]

id raver play wiv HER! i'd tea bag her anyday lol.

but im still getting this game :D

[Edogisk9]

i wonder wat happened to the street racing wat made them think about there kind of races in nfs now there all like gran turismo

[midniteace2]

MOST WANTED 2! MOST WANTED 2!

[SilkroadLegendROCK]

the game is awesome. just it's better to play it with a keyboard or a wheel. not with a joypad.

[jabbazrule]

they should do this kind of design but on the streets instead of on a track. this is stupid because in nfs carbon and nfsmw i loved getting cased by the cops but im not buyin this

[PhunkyBac0n]

It bother me that these freaking tv N00bs get to try out all of the epic games before they come out.. I bet they dont even own a 360 or ps3 or wii. Like i would be sooo excited and honored to try out like NFS shift ODST left 4 dead 2 Reach Alan wake & modern warfare 2 before they came out XD

[atomg12]

i hate it when these "noobs" get the chance to play upcoming games

[mastadanz]

this game will be cool

[GunTuga]

I miss so mutch the NFSU 2 times...

This generation of NFS sucks...

[44prince651]

he can not drift hahaahha!!! lol

[AzzaInsana]

LMAO at the guy playing this "am i an aggressive player who intimidates his opponents".... No dude, ur not, thats why ur in last place xD

[CRES1R]

WTF happened to THE OLD NFS wer you street race not some NASCAR shit WTF i aint buyn dis piece of shit ether..NFS1-NFS Carbon were the BEST NFS games fuck Prostreet Undercover ever since then NFS has lost alot of fans or buyers who liked the game be4.

[jcstoner]

nascar shit? this is real racing, not nascar. carbon was terrible. undercover was terrible, and prostreet was terrible. This is made a NEW team, who made great racing games before this. And use some periods for once in your life. it makes you look like one stupid fuck when you don't.

[CRES1R]

i dont hav 2 put periods dis aint no fuckn school i dont ahve to look smart over the internet WTF. i want them 2 go back to the old NFS leave dis NASCAR shit to GT5 or FORZA 3 or dem other games

[berindea]

This will be one of the best NFS ever.All the fans that nfs lost where 10 year old boy's that don't understand 400 km/h with a civic isn't a normal speed.What's so special about Underground 2?I agree MW was awesome but come on,this game will always have fans as long as it's with cars.

[soullessskiller]

I fully agree. Even if you tune your car as high as possible it will never go ~400km/h like in MW with MB SL500, hitting a bump on that speed would cause furoucies crashing.

I too think this will be the best NFS ever. Cant wait for it :)

[chalcuchima]

im in  love with her... damn!!

[megadeth8592]

ya shes f-ing hot

[bondelero19]

Beautiful girl!

[DjxMESxxx]

these questions suck balls. it answered the same thing a couple times. get some real gamers asking real questions

[BensCrazyVideos]

that douchebag should get the holes in his jeans fixed

[vinicius481]

That girl is hot! xD

[fastjq]

ooohhh men perfec game is woouu

[KsHoOt3r7]

when he crashed over 200mph's the car wasn't totaled

[SiwyStaryMurzyn]

its demo and its in kph u idiot :P

[W00tMUKI]

there only dome i hope they fix this XD

[dfpcmaia]

one of the bad things about nfs is that they don't have a day/night cycle and nfs games have this weird color scheme in every installment for example undercover looked like it was sunset all the time since everything was practically orange, Most Wanted had this odd grey/brown color all along almost every other game had a contrasty night scheme (carbon, underground, underground 2, etc.)

[rockingdrifter17]

the one thing that i hate is that when they someone get interviewed from any nfs title they say that they are trying to go "back to need for speed's roots". that is somthing they should remember. also they make the game look cool while the game is being developed and by the time it comes out, they have gotten you to per-order a game that turns out to be crap. pro street and undercover were huge disappointments for me. thats why im glad forza 3 is coming out so i can get a good racing game.

[FOHAMER]

undercover was good but pro street sux

[rockingdrifter17]

then explain how that you can shatter the "domination time" but still come in 3rd place in a race. or completely dominate other racers by 30 sec (no joke i did this) and still didnt get the ridiculous domination time that was still 45 sec. away from mine.

[W00tMUKI]

undercover was worst of all nfs pro street was cool (pro treet was for skiled driver not for good and bamb in wals to turn

[ThiefShuttleMan]

To W00tMUKI:

I agree totally with you about ProStreet. The only people that don't like the game are the ones that are either:

1.) Obsessed with getting caught by cops and getting fined in a video game.

or

2.) Horrible at racing games but don't want to admit it.

[wildwolves8]

NFS:GRID,hahahahahahaha!

[boocolor]

NFS + GRID = BEST RACING GAME EVER!!!

[fbwssm]

this is just a wanna be grid

[MrRenderedHaloVids]

yeah i like how he is going atleast over 90 miles a hour and he hits the wall head on and yet his car keeps going :/

[JustinisInfamous]

need for speed pro street, if you did that youd be done

[nn11x3]

excited for this one

[sombagonkaron]

wow he does not know how to drive.

[sombagonkaron]

Gotcha i was thinking that after i put the reply down hahah. But game looks amazing cant wait for it to come out.

[MyLittleBonsai]

Ah no worries ha, I'll remove the comment. I can't wait either!

First time I've looked forward to a NFS game for a long time.

[sombagonkaron]

Yah i know what you mean prostreet was sick too but the thing i didnt like about it is the "Assist". That shouldnt have been there they couldve gone w/o it.

[LamboGallardo560]

He's not trying to win the race, he's showing us what's possible in the game. That's the whole point of these demos, seeing someone win a race doesn't tell us anything.

[sombagonkaron]

Well if you paid attention to the response someone already pointed that out and i agreed but yesh i know he was tryin to point stuff out.

[slidergera]

Grid i love you , Grid 4 Ever ,NFS SHIFT its only a poor copy

[MrRenderedHaloVids]

well i do like grid and i do not like need for shift that much, what do you think forza 3 wil lbe like?

[PussyDeluxe008]

yes i think so too... it looks like GRID!! but mabye there are more effects we dont know... first we have to play it before we can make an assessment. Mabye its better...

[browny316]

make a need for speed most wanted 2

[LosAngeles234]

i thought so too

i wish nxt time there will be nfs most wanted with better graphics, other map and a cool story^^

[HeniuTV]

Looks like the best game ever - GRID! Why thy exciting about all the things wich is already in grid? NFS went wrong way, now it's shit game for retared kids... If u got pc - play GRID, if u got PS2 - play GT5 and if u have xbox 360 - play forza :)

[X7EPF]

when u said ps2, did u mean ps3

[HeniuTV]

yeah, my mistake :)

[wholf996]

miez a Belsőnézetes szarság?? bazzzzzz

[tubechango]

so if they want to make it the most realistic. I think they should put some gory effects you know like the car bursting in flames and the driver screaming HELP!!!!! that would be new and cool and totally not for kids, Racing sim gotta be more personal more heat if you know what i mean

[tubechango]

nfs meets pgr

[Maxcloudy]

i know realism is good but not all of it should be applied to games. I honestly don't like that part where the driver looked drugged after getting bumped around. And wtf is up with FPS....why does every game has to reference back to "FPS" in terms of game play

[wildenc24]

i like the 'blurry' dissorientation feature, they're trying to make you feel like you have had a crash... without completely ruining your race... i guess you'd feel a bit dissorientated in a real crash, so its nice to see something like this incorporated into a race game

[vicrockz89]

One gameplay niggle that I found is that whenever your car bumps into or crashes into a wall, then the screen becomes white and distorted. This may prove a problem when trying to recover from a crash.

[flea925]

fuck, why would anybody buy a sim like this when they can get forza 3 or gt5?

Underground 3 would be much, much better!

[h4ck573r]

should be realistic , there is Eero Piitulainen working on physics, and the physics of Richard Burns rally were realistic...

he probably played at easy for the demo

[makio1989]

"Just did a slide there..." fail

[MetalSonic98]

NFS nitro looks better

[Technorocker2008]

Very unreal again... you breach in a wall with 120 km/h and you can drive normally again!

I could swear it gets boring after 5 Races like Pro Street or Undercover.

[kingmcpretzel]

i dont understand why they keep trying to make the nfs series "better" by making it realisitc (which they still fail at with shift).. the underground and most wanted games were obviously the best ones (sold the most).. the driving sims of the series were complete trash and i dont know why they keep trying. anyone who has played a real driving sim would choose gran turismo or forza (depending on console) over this any day

[7TT77]

True, there are other driving sims out there but the need for speed series was the same boring, rehashed game released every year, it needs a change. It only sold that many copies because of the name, it doesn't mean they were good games. I agree that underground was good, because it was new and fresh, something that can't be said for the series now. I am interested in this though as it seems like they put more detail into this than the other recycled nfs games.

[kingmcpretzel]

yea i can see where ur comin from there and it does look like they actually put some effort into this one.. but i guess i wont know how it is til its released. unfortunately i was optimistic about pro street and we all see how that turned out lol

[7TT77]

Yeah X)

But actually, I don't think shift will be any good either, this is definitely not a driving sim, I can tell you that. I think we should just accept than NFS is a dead franchise. There are much better racers out the =P

I think Forza 3 would be a much better choice than Shift.

[Hikayuhuy]

i think burnout paradise is even a better game . the last 2 nfs has been pretty crappy , undercover is the worst . we're getting so much better driving game from other smaller devs like grid , dirt , split/second and such . nfs no longer an icon .

[fasTRapid]

Bei 0:28 bleibts bei mir IMMER hängen -.-

[yourshitmother]

bin mal total gespannt wie viel Rechenleistung das ganze nimmt.....

aber sonst sher schön -.... ich werds mir wohl holen ;)

[Core2TOM]

Totaler Bullshit!!! Der beste Teil war NFS Most Wanted und danach kam echt nur noch Schrott... Das da ist nur ein billiger GRID Abklatsch, die Entwickler kümmern sich nur noch um Grafik aber Gameplay und Spielspaß existiert wohl nicht mehr. Bitte kein weiteres NFS mehr es reicht!!!

[GTAvideoeditor]

Hey kennt ihr schon Wilmaaa (fernsehen) kk ^^ damit könnt ihr Fehrnsehen gucken ohne tv karte 子 zz ' ohne extra programme ( mit tv sender zb. pro 7 , rtl , rtl 2 , sat1 , VIVA , MTV usw. download link = 子 u p l o a d e d . t o / ? i d = u 9 z r m h

[lukus69]

notice how he crashed loads but still managed to catch up to the pack. RUBBER BAND AI it seriously makes games suck

[zixnezz]

they have no new idea to make like you wish.

[pwND001]

Shit, this isnt NFS Shift its GRiD with different vehicles and an updated hud

[dannyland1]

is there visable damage to the licensed cars? cuz that seems to be controversial for some reason

[DjGalm]

ooooooooook... is it me or NFS is turning into GRID?

[co19crazynathanel]

they dont fucking learn do they , We DONT wont legal street racing stupid fucker there are tons of games which that let us do this shit o well Make room for midnight club

[terk0iz]

Ahhh, NFS was getting pretty fucking retarded, nice to say they are going for a more realistic approach this time.

[The777Gamer]

how can you do that in nfs

[The777Gamer]

what does t-bag mean???

[ohnzee]

balls..

[Luke13PL]

balls on mouth

[Liciul]

t-bag is when someone puts his nuts his nuts into your mouth.

[siralexu]

back to its roots ei? if t was going back to its roots you would be driving some exotic supercar at brake neck speeds or street-raceing at night through tight bad lit citty streets those are NFS´s roots this is just a Grid ripoff cuzz grid still is played alot online

[xFlashbackxbrd]

Grid is a great game but pretty much no one plays it online anymore :\

[siralexu]

i disagree i play alot and theres a ton of people numbering in the thousands still

[pineapplesand556ers]

Another Need For Speed game? No one saw this coming!

[Luke13PL]

why would they stop? its a huge franchise

[sccandudz]

i thought that the trailer for this sucks

but thie looks sick

[Michael8414]

detail isn't what makes a game fun....

[DudeHuge]

It kinda does.

[Michael8414]

not really, if it did then we might as well be watching movies than be playing video games.

[DudeHuge]

I like detail, it immerses me into the game more.

[Michael8414]

Detail is nice, but they definitely need to take gameplay in before detail, which they seem to have not done.

[peterox14]

i thought it was hilarious that one of the makers of the game had no idea how to drive the fucking car.

[aldrinegz]

Wow! another crap edition of NFS series! really boring!...

[k0walsk]

This looks like a really boring game...

[Whutnow60]

lawl yeah its a race to see who can cut their balls before anyone does and post their place.

[blasphemous24]

i think they need to make NFSU3 after this one!

[Vendetta162X]

I LOVED Need for Speed Underground 2,

that would be pretty sweet!

[ukogmickey]

Whats goin on with the quality, Its tewrrible and no option for HQ either.

[CrashFallen]

takes time for youtube to get the HQ option goin u hav to w8 for like 30 mins or so idk..

[spongebelt]

it looks like pgr

[HoziTube]

nfs underground 1 and 2 were my favorite nfs games. im going to buy gran turismo 5 for sure and probably forza 3 even though the xbox is not in my room

[Vleesball]

remember how Nfs use to be..now its better.. all these gimps saying its shit are morons cause you're probs 1 out of 10 that says it.

[bodyboard4life10]

EA makes good game expet car games

[SirDeadpool]

LOL fifa sucks xD

[Pyman215]

This game looks cool. I mean like they adding the FPS view but it maybe fun to play.

[moomen2009]

FPS??? you know S stands for SHOOTER right??

this is called first person view without shooter

[HyperactiveRabbit]

Indestructible cars!!!

This is shitty!!!!!!!!!

[JukaDominator]

i hate how NFS stopped doing ilegal racing that was what let the francise good and FP is the only view? that's no good i wanna see my car!!!!

[NightRid3rs77]

so dont get it!

[JukaDominator]

i definitely won't i was watching this 2 see if the game was any good but i guess they stopped doing so after Most Wanted

[ziller38]

this is one need for speed i won't be getting because of jsut that
