New Need for Speed game looks set for 2012

I hope this one will be just as good as the original 'Need for Speed: Most Wanted', and have it make use of the Frostbite 2 Engine again. Most Wanted was my first PS2 game, and I loved it to bits.
 
The last few in this series of game has made me doubt EA as a good games developer, as they have shown that its all about the money they can make and not about making a good game.

They seriously need to bring back the customisation of Underground 2 (with hopefully some of the gameplay) with the action of Most Wanted. The series tried too hard to become something it isn't - a "professional" street legit racing game. Oh God I hope they don't mess up the "drifting" mechanics this time around.
 
most wanted was awesome!

if they can take that and improve on it i'll be happy
 
I highly doubt it would be awesome. NFS has passed its prime.

Everyone knows it's somehow okay for EA to milk NFS, but not for Activision to do the same with CoD.

you are contradicting yourself because the underground games was when the series was pretending it was something it isnt ! Underground was for F&F Fanboys and Ricers ! Do you still see cars driving around with big wings and Plastered full of Vinyls ?

The Need for speed formula was From the Original One, Exotic cars (Nothing about ricing) in exotic locations with arcade style handling and cops. that was the formula from Need for Speed 1 (NFS 2 didnt have cops as there wasnt enuf time to implement it) until Hot Pursuit 2 in 2002 ! every other NFS game (when blackbox took over the series SUCKED (apart from games they didnt make like shift which slightly mad made and Hot pursuit which criterion made) ! when Criterion made Hot Pursuit in 2010 they worked on the original NFS Formula and thats why it won the best racing game award @ e3 (something they did 1st time around unlike blackbox which couldnt achieve anything in the 8 years that they spearheaded the series) !

Facts are Facts

need for Speed 1-5 (Ea Canada - formally Distinctive software - the guys who made 4d stunts for those who didnt know) awesome games highly rated !

need for speed 6 HP2 (blackbox ps2 - ea seattle pc, gamecube xbox) okish but still well received

need for speed underground to undercover) hier is waar die kak begin het (except for most wanted which was pretty good but brad gour was involved and that was the guy who was working and spearheading the original 5 nfs games.

nfs Shift very good (cause slightly mad did it instead of blackbox

Hot pursuit - ORsome (Criterion Studios - know what NFS is About)

nfs Shift 2 very good (cause slightly mad did it again)

NFS The Run (fail guess who made it - BLACKbox and even using frostbite 2 didnt help)

so it is simple for any one to understand - when blackbox touches things it goes to schiite (Nfs was never about story lines - something they still dont seem to realise)

Why does everyone hate The Run?

Saying the ai in that game is bad would be an undrstatement

Need for Speed: The Run received mixed reception from critics, making The Run the worst received installment in the franchise since 2008's Undercover.

Need for Speed: The Run failed to penetrate the top ten on the British weekly video game sales charts in its first week of release, debuting at 11th place - an unusual failure for a popular racing game IP. For reference, 2010's Criterion Games-developed Hot Pursuit landed in third place in its first week, with sales around double that of The Run

dare i say more (Blackbox should have been shutdown along time ago)
