Why dont u just buy the game. Looking at screenshots is like masturbating over porn, playing the game is like... you get the picture.
Well, if you lived in Kleinzee you would understand.

I am getting the game soon, a friend of mine will be posting it to me soon enough.

Haha, just joking. You should order from budget, take 2 or kalahari, they always deliver on time and are more reliable than shops.

No, but Ive heard that it has awesome handeling. Im using the Porche 911 Turbo and it handles amazingly at high speeds. Apparently the Murcielago, Ford GT, Maclaren and Porche GT are out of this world, I should be able to unlock them today!

Money in this game is pretty scarce .. Im getting towards the end of the game, and i want to buy a new car (Dodge Viper) But its like 90000 the another 100000 to upgrade it... I really think u would struggle if you didnt win a couple of your opponents cars

BTW: Im gonna lan this game on Saturday so i got a savegame with all the cars unlocked, And it looks like the standard version has all the cars that the black edition does

BMW M3
Camero '67

Ha this is soo cool, I thought i was gonna have to wait for some mod or summin to unlock those cars

Aswell... What car do u think a supercharger goes onto, Got it as a unique upgrade but whatever car i want to put it on changes it to a Turbo

AWE MOZZ!!! Thats awesome. I dont tweak my cars, I guess if you make it all top speed and no accelaration you can hit higher top speeds on long staights. How far are you? I have one more guy to beat then Razor. This game rocked and I am getting COD2 delivered today!

Yeh, the only benefit I can see is the fact that when you load it, you don't have to keep swapping the discs. I bought the CD and had to change discs 4 times in the load process. I've bought plenty of DVD games in the last couple of months, all "Special Editions", or "Collectors editions", or "Directors Cuts" etc... and unless theres bonus content on the DVD that you can use in the game, I don't see the point. Pay the extra for the hassle free installation.

Don't know if someone has posted this tweak guide yet but it looks quite good. It also mentions that there is a bug when using a dual core or hyperthreading cpu.

Nice game. The graphics and the sound effects are awesome. Like the previous NFS's (underground) the handling of the cars is not that gr8t in my opinion.
Not realistic enough. When it comes to realism no NFS beats Porsche Challenge, I still love that game now. Most cars esp. the the carrera GT sound awesome, just like in real! The sound of the SL65 is rubish though, cant even hear that V12, same goes for the beamer :(

Now I know that Valve have designed the whole HDR lighting thing for Half Life, but don't you guys reckon that this games uses something that looks incredibly similar?

I've come out of tunnels where the sun hits you right in the face as you exit, and its almost blinding. I've also played the Lost Coast, and man, they both look the same in terms of sun flair and what not....
