Posted May 10, 2009 What the f*ck is going on with the trees? They look appalling! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 10, 2009 Erm....it's like Burnout but without traffic and crashing (and possibly bad controls). Still, I think it looks quite nice. Actually...why don't they just take the Burnout Revenge engine and make another non-Criterion Burnout (they're not as good as the main ones, but they're still good)?

Posted May 10, 2009 Well they've managed to make a game that looks worse in every way than Burnout 2 on the GC! Good job!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 New trailer. No in game footage by the looks of it but it appears that it's taking some cues from de Blob. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 Oh my! That was for GC? Gots to get me some of that! Granted, this doesn't have car damage (I think?), but I'll wait for some more footage to pass judgment. At the very least I'm glad they didn't went all kiddy with this one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 19, 2009 It's awesome! Best version of Burnout 2 tbf. The GC controller was perfect for it. (Even Alex Ward at Criterion said so.) God I loved Burnout 2 on the GC. I used to play it religiously and it's therefore a damn crime to humanity that we don't have a burnout for Wii. Even if we got 'new play control' I'd be ecstatic! C'mon EA...Show the love. Now that Criterion are DLC happy with Burnout Paradise I'd just love to see them go back to a more focused racer like the original trilogy. Heck, Burnout 3 was incredible (and not on Nintendo) so give us that! *Wishes* (And, Criterion/EA throw Black in there too!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 ..yeh.. Burnout 2 was fantastic ..I too would probably accept a port of Burnout 3: Takedown on the Wii if the opportunity ever arose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 If that's in-game, and it plays as well as it sounds (i.e., nothing like the previous NFS's), I'm sold. More pics leading to my belief that it's in-game at http://www.gamespot.com/wii/driving/needforspeednitro/images.html?tag=gallery_summary;image_index Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 19, 2009 The trees definitely suggest it is in game.. and it is almost ridiculous to even have to question this as the Wii should be capable of handling that and much more! It would be nice if this turns out well.. but we'll have to wait and see.. it's not really on my radar at the moment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 20, 2009 That screen shot is horrendous. What a steaming pile of shite. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 20, 2009 ^ yeah I don't like it either. But there was an in-game video at the top of this page, which is now down, and it looked better in motion, but not OMG wow! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have it and I find it slow, dull and frustrating (you just have to graze another car and you crash/come to a complete stand still). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 20, 2009 Well I never had the chance to play Burnout 2, just the first which made me hate the series. Burnout 3 is probably one of the best driving games I've ever played, minus all the EA radio crap that keeps cropping up, but you can just turn that off.

Don't agree, it's anything but slow when you're trying to keep your boost meter loaded at all times. And driving at constant boost on the wrong side of the road, dodging and weaving cars is one exhilerating ride. Plus it looked great and had some great tracks. NFS: Nitro - Producer Interview That's definately peaked my interest in this 'Bad-ass, not kiddie' game! haha! Looking forward to a proper in game trailer!

Im playing again now for the 1st time in ages (gave it ago again to reavalute my opinon before posting -comment above) now finding it ...ok, Ill keep playing maybe there is a better game to be had here if stick with it. Looking for to Nitro now also. Edited May 20, 2009 by Pete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I actually really liked what he had to say about building Wii titles from the ground up, gives slight hope. Also geat they're including all the control schemes. Sadly it doesn't make those screens look any better lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 21, 2009 Surely it's not a good sign Burnout 2's trailer excites me more than Nitro's... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 21, 2009 Although speaking the truth here. Burnout has always been a better racing series than need for speed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 29, 2009 Right. Taking back anything good I had to say about this. Looks to be all about holding the accelerate button the longest. Big whoop. Plus, the engine just doesn't sound right. Keeps revving at the top end, if you ask me. http://www.eurogamer.de/videos/exklusiv-need-for-speed-nitro-gameplay-video Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
