Looks pretty good, a bit better than the first one. Though GT 5 has my attention at the moment.

joydestroy4906d ago

this won't be out until towards the end of next year, though. easy purchase here. game footage and screens are only gonna get me more excited

MNicholas4906d ago (Edited 4906d ago )

renders at twice the resolution (54.4M pixels/sec) but inferior to GT5 which renders at 3 times the resolution (83M pixel/sec).

At a mere 27.7M pixels/sec, there should be plenty of pixel shading power to give this game shading and effects that are at least equal to GT5.

So far it does not.

Ch1d0r14906d ago

How did you come up with those numbers??

Need for Speed: Shit, trying to steal GT5's flame. I sure hope the PS3 port doesn't look like shit, just like the first one.

NickX4906d ago (Edited 4906d ago )

GT5 has nothing to do with this game so try harder fanboy. This is a pure arcade racer. Try something that does not have Sony on the box, blinkered N4G sheep

Quagmire4906d ago

I hate how whenever NFS is mentioned, some rabid fanboy just HAS to include GT5 in some unnecessary comment. I like NFS and I like GT5, but its like comparing Mini Golf to Pro Golf.

Keith Olbermann4906d ago

which ones mini golf? lol jk.

Venatus-Deus4906d ago (Edited 4906d ago )

Easy Tiger...

Take a chill Pill...

Frankie says "Relax"

"Calm down" "Calm down"

Role a big fat one my friend...

He only said that GT5 has his attention for the moment.

EDIT:

Lol @ Quagmire

You basically just call Shift a smaller more childish and inferior version to a game that all professional and serious players’ part take in. Great analogy.

NickX is not going to be happy.

Quagmire4906d ago

Dude, Pro Golf is boring as hell. Mini-Golf is way fun and more appealling to the masses, y'see where I'm going with this?

Venatus-Deus4906d ago

I just knew you where going to say that, I just knew it.

Yeah, Mini golf is better that the pro sport. Thats right I agree with you. /s

Ducky4906d ago (Edited 4906d ago )

Blur filters. Sweet.

More or less a duplicate story. Double sweet.

Edit: I never specified which one was a dup. Being vague should cover my behind. =x

dkblackhawk504906d ago

Actually it is not a dup, Kevco33 submitted it after this was in the pending section. Technically his is a dup, he just found his n4g buddies to approve it faster.

Speed-Racer4906d ago

Also, these screens are actually high res unlike his which are the same shots shown a week ago which he is basically recirculating. Epic journalism right there.

kevco334906d ago

Actually, no. I did not discuss my submission with anyone else, the community put it through an hour before this one was even submitted. Check your facts before you start slandering other members.

Speed-Racer4906d ago

Check the URL IDs and the pending publication time and you will see this was submitted long before. Even if that is an issue, your shots are not high resolution.

Debate over.

Yangus4906d ago

I dont like arcade racing game,but this cars much better visuals GT5 standard cars.......and not 5 years development.

Sarcasm4906d ago

I dont like english,but this language much better sounding spanishes.......and not 5 year old.

Venatus-Deus4906d ago

Isn’t Yangus a fat Troll from Dragon Quest?

If yes… then I salute you on what is probably the intentional irony.

Yangus4906d ago

Yes,Dragon Quest!/Cool game/

But Yangus not troll,human!!

And disappointed GT fan-

Dragon Quest VIII old game,but i not see many 2D trees.......:)

GMWPS34906d ago

Looks good, can't wait to see the final product. So I have something to play in between my GT5 fixes! :-)

Looking Back to 2011 and the Forza Baiting Need for Speed Shift 2: Unleashed

Paul writes: "So, all in all, Shift 2: Unleashed from way back in 2011 on Xbox 360, PS3 and PC was a good game, but not quite as good as the marketing hype may have had you believe. Autolog and racing with friends was fun, the upgrading of the cars and the gradual unlocking of the new series made for an addictive play, and the game looked the part as well. But it failed to reach the heights many predicted."

B-TEN Interviews Straight Right Games, Developer of Mass Effect 3 on Wii U

"At B-TEN, we love video games. Even more then that, we love having the chance to talk about video games. Straight Right is a video game developer out of Australia known for Shift 2 Unleashed, Mass Effect 3 Special Edition and Dues Ex Human Revolution Director’s Cut. I got the chance to interview Straight Right CEO Tom Crago and get his insight into the games Straight Right has worked on."

Interesting interview....

CouldHaveYelledUiiW3683d ago

I agree,
SQ: "Excellent"
LkTWS: "Yes"

Thanks for writing something with substance and not just opinion and speculation.

wonderfulmonkeyman3683d ago

Deus Ex was great, but ME3 was just done terribly. The should have done the collection of the series for wii u instead of the third game on its own.

CurrentDigital3683d ago

This is exactly what I've been telling Jes, but he's just a QA tester so it doesn't really matter what I tell him. :P

ZeekQuattro3683d ago

Excellent work. This is a breath of fresh air especially compared to the usual doom and gloom on here. Keep it up.
