Kotaku managed to spend some time with EA’s Need for Speed which is due for release in December.
Kotaku describes how EA’s racer opts for an “always on" accelerator system:
Also, there’s no gas or break. You’re always gassin’ it. The game compensates by how well you do on turns. The better lined up you are on the “turning arch"; the appropriate gas or brake is automatically applied, thus saving you from crashing into the wall or railing. You also have the option of using nitro boost, to speed up, or this “bullet-time" function to slow you down while making tough turns.
There will be 30 cars to choose from and described as graphically “head and shoulders" above the rest.
The next hands on demo will take place Sat, Dec 13th at the Third Street Promenade Apple Store in Santa Monica, CA.
