We've recently found out that Forza 5 will contain only about 250 cars, most people are complaining because they'd expect more cars since the game is now on blu-ray disc, I personally was a little disapointed to find this out but the overall selection is good enough for me, we're getting Autovista for all cars, more detail and better damage modelling. Well you can't please everybody.

If we break NFS games down into a few categories... * The Old (NFS, NFS II (SE), NFS III Hot Pursuit, NFS IV High Stakes, NFS Porsche Unleashed, NFS Hot Pursuit 2) * The Fast & Furious (NFS UG, NFS UG2, NFS MW, NFS Carbon, NFS World Online) * The Forgettable (NFS ProStreet, NFS Undercover) * The Simcade (NFS Shift, S2U) * The New (NFS HP 2010, The Run, MW 2012) ... often it's the old games that have the most popularity overall and are full of fond memories. So then, what made these games great? What makes the new games bad? Don't reply with a big rant (or even small paragraphs), because we're making an itemized list here, similar to when we told Atari what we wanted in TDU2 (and that turned out well :rolleyes:). Keep your list points concise so that I can copy them below. If you don't agree with someone, just ignore their post. If you like an idea, just click the like button. Try to cover as many areas of the games as possible. Later on we'll feature this on the homepage in an article and Diablo can send a link to the NFS Twitter account. WHAT WE LIKE IN NFS GAMES * Diverse (& European) locations, great driving roads (not condensed into a tiny map though) (NFS The Run was quite good in this case). * Great engine sounds * Great graphics * Knockout/Tournament mode across multiple tracks, instead of elimination after each lap or xx seconds. WHAT WE DISLIKE IN NFS GAMES * Overuse of maps that feel like they're based in America * Open world maps are small and shorten the game's lifespan to just a month or two. * Open world maps only have few roads going to few locations so you can't choose different ways to get to a location. * Lack of dashboard camera view. Those who have a steering wheel and H shifter want the full immersive experience. * A requirement to modify cars to progress/be competitive online * "Tap Brake to Drift" * Exclusive car manufacturer licenses (gives NFS bad image) * No online freeroam (not session-based)

Atari officially announced the car list today and as you can see it's full of Ferrari's!! Wait what oh yeah it's a Ferrari game so I guess that makes sense. :nuts: Anyway as you can see there are a number of models you've probably never seen in a game before or perhaps even heard of but that is what's good about games like these right? Somewhat annoyingly the much mentioned 52 cars listed on many retailers appears to now be 51 and if you have been following events around the internet you will see that some cars that have been listed appear to have been changed or removed but this could mean that they are planning to support the game after release with DLC providing the game is fairly popular with you guys. *hides* Car List Key: ---- [Latest Update] [Pre-order bonus] [Downloadable Content] Day One retail disc* -------------- Ferrari 125 S 1947 Ferrari 166 Inter 1948 Ferrari 212 Export Spider Vignale 1951 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa 1957 Ferrari 250 California 1957 Ferrari 250 GTO 1962 Ferrari 275 GTB 1964 Ferrari 330 P4 Berlinetta 1967 Ferrari Dino 246 GTS 1972 Ferrari 365 GTB4 1968 Ferrari 365 GTS4 1969 Ferrari 308 GTS 1977 Ferrari 308 GTB Quattrovalvole 1982 Ferrari 288 GTO 1984 Ferrari F40 1987 Ferrari F40 Competizione 1989 Ferrari 512 BB 1976 Ferrari Testarossa 1984 Ferrari 512 TR 1991 Ferrari 348 Spider 1993 Ferrari F355 GTS 1994 Ferrari F355 Spider 1995 Ferrari F355 Challenge (1995 series) Ferrari F333 SP 1994 Ferrari F50 1996 Ferrari F50 GT 1997 Ferrari 360 Spider 2000 Ferrari 360 Challenge Stradale 2003 Ferrari 550 Barchetta Pininfarina 2000 Ferrari 575M Maranello 2002 Ferrari 'Enzo Ferrari' 2002 Ferrari FXX 2005 Ferrari 612 Scaglietti 2004 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano 2006 Ferrari F430 2004 Ferrari F430 Spider 2005 Ferrari 430 Scuderia 2007 Ferrari F430 Challenge (2006 series) Ferrari 125 S Monoposto 1947 Ferrari 312 F1-67 Monoposto 1967 Ferrari 312 B3-74 Monoposto 1974 Ferrari 312 T4 Monoposto 1979 Ferrari 126 C2 Monoposto 1982 Ferrari F1-87 Monoposto 1987 Ferrari F1-90 Monoposto 1990 Ferrari 248 F1 Monoposto 2006 Ferrari F2007 Monoposto 2007 Ferrari F2008 Monoposto 2008 Ferrari 458 Italia 2009 Ferrari California 2009 Ferrari 150° Italia Monoposto 2011 Pre-order specials ---------------- Ferrari FF 2011 - [Pre-order bonus via Gamestop] Rumoured --------- Ferrari 456 GT 1993 - [bADNED] Ferrari Ascari Concept 2005 - [bADNED] Ferrari F2002 2002 - [bADNED] *excludes any on-disc locked content :evil:

Today Atari (did something useful and) announced the track list that will be coming with Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legend this March, yes next month in other words. It wouldn't be right if they did things fairly well in advance would it? Anyway check out the list below and I'm sure just like me you will easily see some favourites of yours and then take a look at the pics and marvel at them. Looks quite good wouldn't you say? Now a taste of the sounds would be most welcome along with some videos showing the hopeful variation in handling that the player can choose and thus thoroughly enjoy. :D Official Track List Circuit de Catalunya - Spain GP Circuit de Catalunya - Spain National Circuit de Spa Francorchamps GP (1980) - Belgium Circuit de Spa Francorchamps GP (2004) - Belgium Casino Riviera-Cote d'Azur - France Cote d'Azur Monte Grande - France Cote d'Azur Monument Loop - France Cote d'Azur Port Boucle - France Donington Park GP (2009) - United Kingdom Donington Park National (2009) - United Kingdom Enna Pergusa - Italy Fiorano - Italy Fiorano Alternate - Italy Hockenheimring - Germany GP Hockenheimring GP (1982) - Germany Hockenheimring National - Germany Hockenheimring Short - Germany Imola (1981) - Italy Imola (2005) - Italy Misty Loch - fictitious Circuit Monza GP (1958) - Italy Monza GP - Italy Monza Junior - Italy Motorsport Arena Oschersleben - Italy Motorsport Arena Oschersleben B - Course-Italy Mugello GP - Italy Mugello Short - Italy Nordschleife - Germany Nordschleife Aremberg - Germany Nordschleife, Karussell - Germany Nordschleife Nurburg - Germany Road America Circuit dummy Rouen (1956) - France Rouen Short (1952) - France Silverstone GP (1959) - United Kingdom Silverstone GP (1975) - United Kingdom Silverstone GP (2009) - United Kingdom Silverstone International (2009) - United Kingdom Silverstone National (2009) - United Kingdom New images including the F458 Click images below for larger version
