Need for Speed Shift 2 has just been announced, dubbed "Unleashed", and comes with this shiny teaser trailer as well. Most people who played the first seemed to really quite like it. It looked great, and for the most part drove great too. Expect the sequel to race into stores Q1 2011.

The original was released in September of 2009, and this isn't due until March 2011. That's 18 months - not sure why it would be "too soon".

Oh yeah! Never too soon.

It better not have that retarded built in oversteer bullshit that Shift had. "Oh I see you made a 1 degree turn on your steering wheel" *Car goes into a series of 360s*

This isn't a Hot Pursuit sequel.

Need for Speed is now a brand, not a game.

I agree this is bad marketing. Give it 6 months between any variety of NFS releases.

The new hot pursuit is a rebadged burnout game isn't it??

I'm not too excited about it. Looks too much of an arcade style racer.

Steering is very twitchy in Shift, gets annoying with fast cars doing spins. I can barely even drive the Mclaren F1 or Veyron. Maybe I need more practice? :p
