Product Description:
Features a combination player tier and achievements system that ensures that drivers are matched against those of similar experience on the track and that rewards for victories match the win; All-new 'Need for Speed' release that combines the true driver's experience with real-world physics, pixel-perfect car models, and a wide range of authentic racetracks; developed by the world's best racing game talent and real race drivers, including: the team behind critically acclaimed 'GT Legends' and 'GTR2' games and VP of EA Games and race car driver Patrick Soderlund; a wealth of highly tunable cars available in an equally diverse range of events including: quick race, standard races, manufacturer races, time trial, online options and more; and the all-new driver profile system that assigns a unique persona based on a player’s driving skill and style: aggressive or precise. This system also affects career progression, unlockables and online matchmaking. Need for Speed: Shift represents both a literal and figurative changing of gears for EA's popular racing series, as primary development duties have been transferred from EA Black Box to Slightly Mad Studios, and the gameplay moves from arcade-style action to physics-based simulation. Everything in Shift is designed to convey a sense of realism, from the cockpit view and disorienting effects of crashes, to the more than 70 licensed vehicles and 15 real-world courses. A 3D heads-up display mimics the movements of a driver's head, while depth-of-field effects blur the screen to simulate speed, inertia, and G-forces.
