What's Better : Need For Speed Or Project Gothem?

I'm a pretty hard-core sim racer on PC, so interpret my answer within that framework.  Both are totally arcade, but PGR3 to me is a better racing and car control experience.  Also better graphics.  And an actual in-car dash view with good perspective in widescreen (W00T!)  The environments are pretty good too.

NFSMW is (IMHO) complete arcade garbagey port targeted at young kids who dream of ricing out Civics and street racing.  It has a story line where you work your way up through "the blacklist" to gain rep, etc.  It actually held my attention for about an hour, mainly because there was a hot chick in it, then I put it away and haven't been tempted to go back even once.  Driving physics and realism are worse than a joke.

So between the two... PGR3.  But I anxiously await Forza 2, GP3, the next CMR, etc.  Oh yeah and a good FF wheel.  I wonder if my DFP would work?  I should try it...

NFS is better and will continue to always be better

PGR has never seemed any good to me

If you go by the logic of how real something is then Halo wouldnt be the number 1 Xbox game.

More like Rainbow Six, Tiger Woods, or Forza, then.



Need for Speed is alright once in a while.  UG2 was alright, but I've heard this version is not very good.  I have PGR3 and I love it.  I can almost guarantee it's going to look prettier and be more realistic.  NFSMW is going to be more arcade based.  It just depends on what you like.

Im not into actual real racing sims so nfsmw would be my choice. I just finished it today finally. Almost cost me a wireless control to. Nothing pisses me off more than racing for 5+ min and when your at the final lap, sometimes final curve, the computer comes flying by and passes you at the last second. My wireless almost went through my window lol.

NFSMW is fun, but way too similar to Midnight Club 3 Dub Ed.

PGR3 is extremely realistic, and very fun.

PGR3 all the way. NFS is not realistic enough. Atleast thats my opinion.

download the demo for need for speed see how it is...as for pgr3...its a much cleaner and more next gen than NFS...
need for speed is a shitty port, and a shitty game for people who like the pimp their civic and "race"
PGR3 has slick graphics great control and is an overall better experiance

Choose PGR3 if you like realistic racing games..

Choose NFS:MW if you like getting chased by cops, souping up your car, etc.

I bought PGR3 though I never really tried out NFS:MW. Download the demo from xbox live market place  blink.gif
