The releases of NFSHS2, NFSU, and now NFSU2 do not contain the***pit views
or possess the different engine sounds of each car.
The physics engines became more arcade feeling and video replays became so
limited camera angle wise.
I suppose that they are still fun, but not anywhere near as much as Porsche
2000.
Did someone at EA Games get punted out of their position for headlining a
simulation instead of a game?
Why are their latest incarnations so unconvincing anymore?
Come on now. Those are all the upsides of dual porting games to the PC and
game consoles. :)

Afterwards, IIRC, EA sold off the branch containing the original coders, but
held on to the Need for Speed franchise, hence making the recent games every
bit as ***as their predecessors within the lineage.

From the post below: "All the NFS games except Porsche Unleashed were done
by EA Seattle."

NFS PU seems to have been made by EA Canada:

Well, NFS:HP2, NFS:U and NFS:U2 are done by BlackBox, formerly a separate
company, now part of EA Vancouver. For NFS:HP2, they did the PS2 portion
(the Gamecube, Xbox and PC ports were done in EA Seattle), for the rest I
don't know.
