Product Description
-------------------
The critically accled SHIFT franchise returns to the track
with SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED. The most immersive racing experience to
date brings the True Driver's Experience to life with all the
intensity and exhilaration of being behind the wheel and
competing in the Driver's Battle. From the all-new helmet cam to
night racing to frighteningly real physics and ces, SHIFT 2
UNLEASHED delivers all the violence and excitement of race day in
a groundbreaking authentic racing experience. For centuries the
wind has been viewed as nature's paradox with its ability to be
both gentle and powerful. The newly-unveiled Pagani Huayra, named
after the Andean God of Wind, reflects this dichotomy and will be
available exclusively in SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED and Need for Speed in
2011, the latest entry to the critically accled Need for Speed
simulation series. The team at Slightly Mad Studios has perfectly
recreated the form and function of this year's most notable new
supercar. From its elegant body shape to its commanding 700 HP
engine, SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED is the first videogame where players
will feel the white knuckle intensity of racing the Pagani Huayra
at speeds of over 230 mph. SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED is this year's most
authentic racing game which races onto retail shelves on 1st
April. "For the past seven years, the designing of the Huayra has
been a labor of love and I'm ecstatic to be working with the
entire Need for Speed team to help share our creation with the
world," said Horacio Pagani, founder of Pagani Automobili S.p.A.
"I' amazed by how accurately they have been able to capture the
look and, most importantly, the feel of the Huayra. SHIFT 2
UNLEASHED will give enthusiasts all over the world the
rtunity to get behind the wheel of the Huayra." SHIFT 2
UNLEASHED takes the innovative rivalry-generating Autolog
technology pioneered by Need for Speed Hot Pursuit and connects
friends, and competitors, together in head-to-head races and
player statistic match-ups to add new layers of depth and detail
to the intricate customization and tuning of the simulation
series. Players can take the revolutionary true driver's
experience to the next gear with an all-new rendering engine and
graphics overhaul, innovative helmet camera, night racing, and
authentic degradation of cars and environments. Developed by the
award-winning Slightly Mad Studios, SHIFT 2 UNLEASHED will be
available on the Xbox 360 videogame and entertainment system from
Microsoft, PlayStation 3 computer entertainment system and PC.
Fun though arcade-style racing games are, true petrol-heads crave
a level of realism that delivers a much truer evocation of the
adrenaline-generating rush of real-life motor racing. So they
should be happy to discover that Shift 2 Unleashed provides
exactly that. It's essentially a racing sim, with a physics
engine that represents the state of the art (although that
doesn't mean it excludes those born without the sheer talent of a
Lewis Hamilton or Jenson Button, as driver assists are on hand
until you develop the bravery to crank it up to the Elite
difficulty level). But whereas most racing sims adopt a clinical
look and feel, Shift 2 Unleashed ratchets up the atmospherics to
a heart-pounding level. Not only does it communicate an
incredible sensation of speed, using clever visual tricks like
motion-blur, but it has a full damage engine, turning your every
indiscretion into a dinged or crumpled body panel. And then
there's the innovative Helmet Cam, the most true-to-life
representation of the view a real racing driver enjoys in the
cockpit - which cleverly apes drivers' -lines by, for
example, homing in on the apex as you approach a corner. Not to
mention proper night-driving - a first for a videogame - with
rigorously modelled headlights cutting through the darkness. It's
safe to assume that non-virtual drivers booked in for their first
24-hour races will be using it to find out just what to expect on
a real-life night-time stint. A number of things instantly strike
you when you first play Shift 2 Unleashed. Chief among them being
the realistic feel, which complements the looks - you get a great
sense of gradient-changes on the tracks, the controls feel
fantastically responsive, and cars are launched into the air if
you clatter kerbs, just like their real-life counterparts would
be. Of course, Shift 2 Unleashed features most of the finest
tracks on the planet - Australia's legendary Bathurst is new,
along with Shanghai, among old favourites like the Nordschleife
and Brands Hatch - and a mouth-watering selection of machinery,
including the yet-to-be-driven Pagani Huayra. You can indulge
your FIA GT fantasies, too, as Shift 2 Unleashed incorporates the
premier endurance racing formula's official licence -
unsurprisingly, given that a Need For Speed team competes in its
GT3 class. It becomes most obvious that Shift 2 Unleashed
operates under the Need For Speed umbrella when you play it
online. That's because it includes the mighty Autolog, as seen in
Hot Pursuit - which has been significantly upgraded since Hot
Pursuit. This time around, it has a Facebook-style Wall, and as
before, it lets you compete against your friends' best times,
even when they (or you) aren't online. Shift 2 Unleashed's
Autolog implementation dynamically tracks the career progress and
personal best times of you and your friends (so it's always bang
up to date), and makes it much easier to share and compare
snaps and videos of your best moves, ces and so forth.
Plus, of course, it lets you set up your own customised online
races and challenges. If you reckon you're truly serious about
motor-racing, then you'll find that Shift 2 Unleashed is just
what you've been seeking. It's a proper petrol-head's dream.
