rec.autos.simulators

If you play sim racers, you like NFS
If you play arcade racers, you like NFS2.

I like NFS2. I played the demo of NFS and thought it sucked cause the car
spun around every time you tried to turn too fast. I personally hate sims
cause if you go too fast, you can't control the car, i.e. F1RS, you gotta
slow down to 2 MPH (I'm exaggerating) to turn the corners. I think EA is
turning the NFS series into a mainly arcade game because arcade games allow
you to go faster (Need for SPEED). But NFS3 will have a sim mode, and it
probably will be a lot more like NFS, to address the complaints some people
had about NFS2 (just like they brought the cops back). So I think everyone
will end up happy. Remember, it's PRE-BETA, and you can't judge much from
it, it can only get better. Hmm, that was longer than I thought it would be.

Is this for sure?  I thought the handling in NFS1 was GREAT.  Are they also
bringing back the***pit view?  I had dismissed NFS3, 'cause I thought it
would be more of NFS2, but now I'm interested.

Yes, dashboards will be back in NFS3 (if you have enough video ram).

I hope so (downloading the demo as I write).
