Poll: Need for Speed Shift demo, your thoughts?

[Ruffythepirate]

I just downloaded and played the new Need for Speed Shift demo, it featured two tracks and five playable cars. I thought the demo was fun to play, but here's the thing: the fifth playable car is the Pagani Zonda, which is an awesome car, was only unlockable. To unlock it you had to get five stars on the two tracks with any of the other four cars. You got three stars for winning, one star for beating a certain track time, and the fifth for another objective. Nine of the ten stars was easy, but the last one (beating a preset time on the first track) was nearly impossible for me, I gave up after almost an hour of trying.
I'm not very good at driving games, but I think they should've made it easier to get the Zonda because I really wanted to drive it, and now I have a really bad first impression of the game and probably won't buy it as a result of that. What do you guys think?

why are they still making nfs? that game series stopped being good years ago, now it's just an average racing game. nothing special or new.

I found Shift to be quite a departure from the series, it felt far different, which imo was better.

I tried to play the full game, renting it obviously, but found I couldn't without wanting to throw the controller through the screen.

I assume you are using the car in the centre? That's the car I used with 10 seconds to spare as well.

The demo convinced me that the game is worth a purchase, but only when it has a price crash during the blockbuster season
