Anyone play this?

I found it under my couch while I was cleaning up after a party. No idea, how it got there, someone must have been carrying it around with them at the party. Weird.

Anyways, my roommate and I played it all day Sunday and all evening last night on the 360. Pretty fun, I'm rocking the Ford Escort Cosworth.

Why are the body kits so freakin ugly in the Need for Speed games?

At least you don't have to get a body kit and neons like in the last ones. Stock look ftw

i have this game, beat it using only Nissans for my carreer cars, after beating it i bought a Bugatti and only had 15 000$ got in a chase with it, hit the spike strips, couldn't pay the fine so the game impounded my insanely expensive car. I haven't played it since because you can't get your car out of impound haha

My roommate got his car impounded last night. It was actually really funny.

My two roommates play on one account. They had been driving the 240 all the career and one of them wanted to get their own car. They havn't gotten very far in the game so they didn't have much money. They played for about 20 min or so trying to get enough money to purchase a RX7. Dude finally gets his RX7, does the street performance upgrades, then goes for a test drive. Cops see him, he can't outrun them (no idea why), he gets busted, can't pay the fine. Brand new car impounded. Never even got to race it. They now have 0 monies lol

I think they only take the car after you get busted 3 times with it. If you've been busted twice and you think you're gonna get caught the 3rd time just turn it off.

That's exactly what I do. I have 2 strikes on my Silvia so when I get busted I just quit the game and restart it lol. Works everytime.

Nah, Midnight Club LA is good but I like the controls and the gameplay better in Need for Speed. I do like the fact that Midnight Club has motorcycles tho... I have a copy of Midnight Club for PS3 I'll sell if anyone wants it. $35
