    I really like their new interior camera view where you actually “lean into the corner” when making a turn.

    I think I’ll get this.

  • Joshua Tompkins

    I like the way the game looks, but I hated the physics from the first game.

  • http://www.gamesthirst.com Ernice Gilbert

    Yeah. They should follow Hot Pursuit’s lead, although they’re two very different games.

  • Joshua Tompkins

    Hot Pursuit drove more realistically than Shift. Did you see my reasons for not being able to go to E3?

    No bro, I didn’t. You wrote it in the related thread?

  • Joshua Tompkins

    yeah, I think I posted it in there.

    really enjoyed the first so ill be front row center to try this one out.
    i hope they have more drifting modes in this, GT5 has the crappest drifting modes!
    the courses used dont have the appropriate corners there too sharp and too short.
    why cant we do a drift competition over a whole track, instead over a single corner?
    kinda hard to get into a good drift if you only have one corner to play with!

    Okay, I saw it. I wish you could have made it though. But I understand, the reasonings are valid indeed.

    True, about the drift.
