Heres the scenario:

Been plating NFS: Most Wanted for a couple of days now... using my newly acquired 5.1 surround setup (i love eBay cost me £8!) - man it feels like i'm in a car chase from a movie like Bullit or Frech Connection!!

And i'm starting to feel the Gran Turismo affect where ur real-life driving style is severly affected...

I was running really late for football ('soccer' for u US guys) training and my car is really ****** - its a 1.1 Ford Fiesta - this car wouldn't even be used as a shopping trolley in the states :) but still i thought i was in my fully pimped out Supra and hell i was close to rolling the thing taking a tightish-left at a 'round-about' at +60mph!!! MAN it might not seem like much but HELL bet it never been done in a car this ****** before :)

Wow and this is the reason the media would like to put the makers of that game in prison... Because some have trouble figuring out the difference between real life and a game!

A post like this surely gives credability to the media... Might I suggest you get some fresh air and see what happens to most cars that speed excessively, and then the people? :D

Take care, I am sure you are just trying to let us know how cool the game is, and to that, I agree :D

LOL I feel your pain. God help the next cop who turns on their lights behind me. :)



Slam on the brakes and turn the wheel until I'm going the other direction.

See what happens when games get too photorealistic+immersive?

Total fun, wherever you go!

Update:

I now insist my friends call me - 'The Heat'

Have cut out some air vents in the hood of my Ford Fiesta 1.1 (have replaced the badge so it is now actually a 2.0i Ghia) - think there gonna rust though...

Also where ever i go girls wearing 'tube tops' seen to lecture me about wearing a seatbelt...?!?

BUT eventually I have worked my way upto no.1 in the local blacklist (not much competition) beating an 81 yr old lady off the lights in a drag comp...

YOU 2 CAN BE AS COOL AS ME IF YOU PLAY THIS GAME :)

Listen to Mia at the start: Do all your racing in the game and drive responsibly in real life.... or something to that effect...

Yeah Most Wanted puts me in the speeding mood as well...

Its just a little more dangerous for me cause I drive a Monte Carlo with PCM mods to remove all RPM limiters, speed governer, as well as air intake & fuel restriction. Oh yeah plus 2" lowering kit, cold air intake, street radials bla, bla - you get the idea :D

I give myself a 30 minute NFS:MW cool down period before driving.

Monte Carlo? Gear down big shifter... that is so much like the cars in the game.. wow... i know this has nothing to do with the original post but seriously, no reason to get all juiced up in a 16 second car...

Thanks for the helpful post!

So I'm guessing your car goes 145MPH as well?

I guess I gotta keep saving for my Caymen S...
