Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Hi, :o

I am a newbie so pelase bare with me. I was wondering if anyone is working on some racing games like NFS - Carbon, Shift or any new one's. Or do we already have it here in this forum.

I would also like to have informations about 'Sims 2009.' I think our N900 geniuses should developd some EA sports games for the N900 OS, if they are not developed yet.

Thanks, :)

There's no way these games would run in n900

If you are talking about EA-specific titles (Madden, NFS, etc), then you need to talk to EA about porting those games to maemo/meego because they're holding the copyright and all related licenses to said franchises.

If you just want something that looks like them... well, afaik, there aren't any opensource games that look like them. The shortest way to getting similar looking games will probably be to look for iPhone/Android developers with the kind of games that you like and talk them into developing/porting something for maemo/meego.

Sounds like he's asking if there are any NFS type games available for the n900.

On the other hand, he/ she's asking for you to create sports titles for EA. :)

What about Road and track NFS 1 isn't this open source?

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

No, it isn't. No recent EA product is open source.

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

NFS 1 road & track was released in 1994. Do you think this could be open source??

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Absolutely not. It isn't going to happen.

In theory, it might be possible to port TORCS, but that's more of a racing sim than the NFS series. And I bet it would be a huge undertaking.

Yea, something 'like' NFS something exciting. I want to experience that 3d accelerometer which is there under that screen. :D

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Ive downloaded PSX4ALL and the first 3 ISO's of NFS for psx and have been playing those :)

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Me too,

It had basic graphics with average sound. BUT great car physics and even better gameplay.

IMAGINE
tv out 2 player split screen.

Player 1 using the phone controls (accelerometer, touch screen or keyboard) player 2 on a wiimote or ps3 pad (or better still p1 and p2 on game pads) a few mates round a crate of beer and pizza on its way.

winner stays on anyone!!!!!!!!

(or 1st to 5 wins doesn't pay for the pizza):):):):):):)

I cant get nfs1 to work which region are you using and is it iso,bin or img?

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Haha thats wierd.. Only number 3 works. I guess i was dreaming :O Anyway its us region and ISO files

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

To have TORCS on the N900 would be awesome! If someone would try it, that would be really cool.

Re: Need for Speed (NEW one's)
 

Where do I get to download it from Kurele?:)

I'm going to go to bed and when i wake up this thread better be squeaky clean...

Edit: also, what's with that gratuitous apostrophe in the title? What belongs to the new ones? The NEW one is Need for Speed? I'm so confused
