Need For Speed The Run Porsche Trailer Released

Need For Speed The Run Porsche Trailer Released

You can only get this ride in the Limited Edition

Written by Matrarch on 08 September 11 at 20:37

The Porsche certainly has been coming up frequently in racing game news lately. We learned recently that the Porsche brand is exclusive to EA and that, generally, they'll sub-license the use of the brand to other companies for inclusion in their racing titles. Unfortunately, however, it was revealed that there will be no Porsches in Forza Motorsport 4 as an acceptable licensing deal could not be reached between Forza developer Turn 10 Studios and EA.

It seems the reasoning for the lack of a deal has become a little more clear today, as EA has released a video showing off the 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S, which will be available to people who purchase the Limited Edition of their upcoming racer, Need For Speed The Run.



Here's the description of the video provided by EA, just in case you can't give it a look:

Who wouldn't want to drive this year's most highly anticipated car? The 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S has been officially unveiled and Need for Speed The Run is giving you exclusive access. Experience the raw power and pinpoint handling that 500 horsepower and 800 lbs of torque have to offer as you fly past rivals and slip past obstacles on your way to New York.Need For Speed The Run, which is being developed by Black Box Studio, is scheduled for release on November 15th in North America and November 18th in Europe.

I hate when marketers ask 'Who wouldn't". Me that's who. This is extremely lazy and poor marketing in any situation.

This looks good! The story seems interesting, and the racing fun, I prefer video games with street racing over course racing. Graphics don't look as good as Forza Motorsports 4, but Forza Motorsports feel while driving was too realistic or something to me, although I'm not sure I'm getting FM4 this game looks good still... as long as servers aren't shut down in a year wink

"The 2012 Porsche 911 Carrera S has been officially unveiled and Need for Speed The Run is giving you exclusive access."

In other words: "If you wanted to drive this car in any other game EA says '&*^% YOU!'"

Was never a fan of Porsche cars, so i'll skip the limited edition. Wasn't planning on buying the game anyway. I like racing games, but the Need for Speed series never pulled my interest like the Burnout series did. Though I did like Most Wanted and Hot Pursuit.

Fantastic car, also noticed the Porsche 911 GT3 RS 4.0 on there, also exclusive to this game.

I would have enjoyed to play with them on Forza Motorsport 4...Tough luck EA, not getting "The Run". deciding to keep the license for yourselves won't make me buy your games just for the porsche.

I would rather have both Ferrari & RUF than just porsche.
Smurfquake - Well, looks like I'm gonna get kicked off the website. Nice getting to know you all. Find me on Xbox if you'd like.
