lol You can play games all you want, but if you actually read the interview the producer clearly states what the scope of the game is. Essentially, the point was that NFS is about fun and accessibility, and a simulation does not necessarily equal fun and accessibility. Therefore, SHIFT was NOT intended as a simulation, but rather a game that featured real racing classes and cars, but with a touch of arcade-like driving so that everyone could enjoy it.

Also, the game is indeed authentic. It has REAL cars, and REAL tracks, and REAL features from WTCC racing, etc... So if you want to take it so literal as down to the definition of 1 word, then indeed, the game is authentic. (Notice the word REAL was from your nice definition)

This still has nothing to do with being, or claiming to be a simulation. Good try though.

OK. The following comes from EA's very own website. Note the bolded.

Need for Speed™ SHIFT is an award-winning authentic racing game that combines the true driver’s experience with real-world physics, pixel-perfect car models, and a wide range of authentic race tracks. Need for Speed SHIFT takes players in a different direction to create a simulation experience that replicates the true feeling of driving high-end performance cars.

Actually, I'd be a troll if and only if they fix the game, get it right, and instead of reverting back to the launch-day optimism and early enthusiasm I had for this game, I keep right on talking crap.

Right now, I'm pissed that my good money seems to be hanging in limbo. But hey, if that's what we're calling trolling nowadays, then bank on more until the problems get fixed.

EDIT: By the way, if you'll put the Kool-Aid down, go back and read, you'll notice that I'm not jacking the thread.

And yes, Clutch is trolling. You troll by jacking threads and posting non-humourous inane stuff that can't be applied to the subject in anyway really. The intent isn't particularly important. Just the fact that it's done.

I'm confused are you saying Audi RS4 & R8 with the same power & torque are correct? or wrong? FYI RS4 & R8 have the same engine so power & torque are indeed the same. Again are you pointing out that Zonda F & Zonda R weighs the same is wrong? or correct? FYI Zonda R is 160kg lighter than Zonda F. So are you pointing out whats wrong or are you saying whats right?

"Coke Zero (R) Dodge Viper SRT-10" shouldn't be "Dodge Viper SRT-10 Coke Zero (R)" cause being a sponsored car, the sponsor's name will always be at the front, eg. MOTUL AUTECH GT-R from Japan Super GT series, the sponsor is MOTUL oils the car is Nissan GT-R. And its "SRT-10" not "SRT10" since you like nitpicking.

Jacking threads?

Someone asked a question. I answered it. Said person attacked my answer, and I defended it. No attempt to be humorous. And it had exactly everything to do with the subject in question.

If anything, JM's hijacked the thread by asking the initial question in the first place, and then getting butt-hurt when someone decided to kick the door in his face.
