Not only could NFS : Shift be an amazing graphical feat( first racer with post processing effects like KZ2), but it is destined to be the most realistic console racer to date. Why??
PC owners will have heard of GTR2, or GT Legends games from the Simulation AWARD winning developer Simbin. Well read this following article:

I have done this new thread because many would have missed this info in amongst the posts of a thread. This is excellent news. (well for racing enthusiasts.) The pure fact that GTR 2 walked all over other racers for realism awards says it all.
And better yet it is in dev for PS3,360 and PC. Bring it on.
