Product Description

Product Description

Imagine the experience of being a race driver. The adrenaline rush of driving at breakneck speeds, the pressure of fierce competition, the fear of losing control, the intense concentration and athleticism needed to harness the power of speeding chrome and steel. This is the True Driver's Experience of Need for Speed SHIFT. Through the combination of perception-based G-forces, an ultra-realistic first-person cockpit view, an accurate, accessible physics-based model and the all-new, brutally disorienting crash dynamic, you'll be thrust into the driver seat amid the chaotic noise, intensity, and physical and emotional demands of the race.

Customers have mixed opinions about the performance of the video game. Some say that the bodykits are cool, the works idea is cool enough, and allows the more tuner-y to play around with their cars. They also mention that the game works well with the PS3 controller, and has so much to do from racing online to tuning your car for peak performance and speed. However, others say that it has its share of technical problems, and crashes and run-offs are frustrating.

Customers have mixed opinions about the racing in the video game software. Some mention that the need for speed games are awsome, the games come up quickly, and lag control is tidy. However, others say that there's a bit of frame rate slowdown occasionally, the menus are quirky, and the load times are dreadfully slow.
