News The Speedhunters Archive: 17 Years of Car Culture History, now preserved and online

170 Upvotes

I think we all share the same sentiment when Speedhunters got abruptly shut down last year: It's a sad passing of an era that EA no longer deems profitable enough to keep up.

Thanks to some archivists (who I can't find the names of, if you put this up, please let me know!), the Speedhunters archive is now back online, and you can read 17 years worth of car culture and Need for Speed history that's uniquely documented by them.

You can find it here: https://www.speedhunters.online/

Thanks u/nfslyy for the tip!

News Most Wanted M3 GTR - Back @ The BMW Museum

Post image
759 Upvotes

Need for Speed itself might be dead, but BMW wants to keep the legend alive. The #42 BMW M3 GTR in the Most Wanted livery is back in the BMW Museum in Munich, Germany after its public outing at Ultrace Poland. There's no mention of until when it'll be there, so it might be there to stay for a long time.

If you haven't had a chance to take a look at it and you're in the area (or travelling there), you may wanna stop by and take a look at the legend, as well as the rich heritage BMW has to offer. Visit the official BMW Museum website to book tickets.

I had quite a bit of fun making these. Normally I freestyle these kind of builds but with these I used some inspirations from real cars. I'll post the inspirations in the comments if I can. I hope y'all like these!

Not as clean as the last clip but I still love the drift I made in the end.

(Note that none of it is forced, I genuinely do this while playing casually. This is a relatively old clip)

Beat it all on hard for the first time. Very fun but also sometimes the most ragebaiting game ever with its rubberbanding AI lol. Onto Hot Pursuit 2 and NFSU2.

After playing through these levels again i think this may be the most difficult make up time level in the game, it just requires such perfection through the entire level and even then its crazy close on all the checkpoints.

It wasn’t the most fun concept I don’t think it’s that bad. Every time someone says anything about UG2 they say URL races suck.

Question / Bug / Feedback Which to buy on Series X NFS Heat or Unbound?

1 Upvotes

The first (and only) Need For Speed game I played was Undercover on the Xbox 360 when I was younger. But now, since both games are on sale on the Xbox Store, I wondering which is the best game to play on Series X? I would honestly love to get both, but with GTA 6 coming out soon and a storage extension device out of my price range, I'm limited in storage. This is all coming from a long-time Forza player and active Forza Horizon 6 player (who's lowk fetup with the lack of customization). The customization of cars is definetly a huge selling point for me compared to Forza Horizon 6, which has a couple body kits for some cars but not as in-depth as Need For Speed has.

The biggest selling point for me on Heat is the envirronement, location, music, and the fact it's deluxe edition is like 5$ CAD plus it takes up less storage, and I also very much perfer that Miami vibe to Chicago. But it's older and only runs at 30fps compared to 60fps on Unbound. Although, NFS Unbound has the best customization in the series plus has great content, but I just don't like the anime styled and perfer more grounded like Heat. Plus it's Ultimate Edition costs more (only like 15$ more) and takes up a little more storage.

Discussion My haunt for MW2005 ( Xbox 360 Edition)

1 Upvotes

So I really want to play MW2005 because I’ve never played it before I’ve only played mw2012 ( on the psp years ago).

So I buy the game on EBay ( I now am getting ready to own 3 different versions of MW. one for the og Xbox one Japanese release ( For the Xbox 360) and one American release of this game ( also for the Xbox 360)

I bought the og Xbox version of the game ( thinking it’s backwards compatible and I can play it on my Xbox 360) I put the game in the console it reads the disc but tells me it’s not compatible with my console. I paid like $21 for the game just to find that I can’t play the game so I search on google and it tells me I need a Xbox 360 version of the game ( it doesn’t specify what version of the game or what region it was re-released for.)

Than My dumbass buys the Japanese release of the game this time it’s the version for the Xbox 360. I paid $40 for this game just to be told that I can’t play it because my console is region locked.

I called it quits after this for 7 months.

Eventually I search the game again on eBay

And holy shit I wasn’t ready for the prices the sellers listed the American/Canadian release of this game for the highest I saw was for 150 dollars with free shipping. Can I ask why is this game specifically the Xbox 360 re-release of MW2005 so damn expensive???
I ended up paying $74.73 for the game… I just checked again and one is $50 ( I feel like a jackass but ik I will enjoy the game). I saw the NFS carbon wasn’t as expensive so I decided to kill two birds with one stone and also bought NFS carbon for 28 bucks.
