    I watched some gameplay vids on Youtube of this game and it sure looks good. I don't think the ios will be as awesome as the ps3, but it will definitely be worth getting for my ipad or iphone.

    No worries, Gonna play the game for the first time on my PS3 tonight so was looking at vids and randomly found it.

    Hopefully the iOS version runs a good graphics engine that although the limits with iOS is similar to Frostbite 2.

    Graphics look good if they are of the iOS version,the car physics put me off a little though.

    Well playing this one on console and I can tell you that it's really good. Don't know if they plan to change the games story line etc. Hopefully it will be the same with just lower graphics etc.

    Nice to have some news about the game ^^ I'm curious to see if the online features on Origin are only leaderboards or if we'll have a true multiplayer mode.
    I hope the shortcuts are bigger this time :)

    The shortcuts in this version are pretty good. I have played about 1 hour of the game on console and have probably seen about on average 2 shortcuts per race. So hopefully they will be in the iOS version of the app. :cool:

    So, we can wish they won't cut the shortcuts on iOS :p

    I like a lot the "kick asphalt" in the video description :D

    New releases thread says this is releasing today...is that true?
    Any confirmation its coming?
    Anyone in NZ found it yet?

    I'm liking the look of it a lot, engine has really stepped up since shift 2, and arcade racing is always more fun than sim imo.

    I wonder if it includes the portion of the game where the player runs out of his car in those interactive cutscenes.

    EA CANCELED GAME !!! :mad::mad::mad::mad:

    info for facebook oficial for EA
    https://www.facebook.com/eamobile

    "EA Mobile will not be launching Need for Speed: The Run on iOS. These decisions don’t come easily, but in the end our focus on fewer, bigger, better experiences necessitated that we focus resources on another exciting new Need for Speed experience for mobile users coming soon. We’ll share more about that in the coming months."

    Wow that sucks big time :(..

    How bad could it have possibly been that they had to cancel it .

    Shift 2 was terrible compared to the first one and they should have cancelled that one instead.
     
  18. So are we finally getting freemium NFS game? Awesome. :rolleyes:

    That's exactly what I was thinking. They cancelled it to focus on freemium-only titles. Grrreat... :(

    The freemium stuff is absolutely terrible on so many levels..

    All that IAP stuff is a joke and id rather pay a premium up front to a solid quality title instead of them trying to nickel and dime me to death :(.
