so yeah...I remember the times of Need for speed 2 and Need for speed 3: Hot pursuit, awesome games of the good era of racing, where you could race "prototype" cars with incredible music and with Tracks that comprised from going to the himalayas, to the desert and even god freaking space nowadays all i've seen it's "track" racing games and other games where all you do it's race around a city and that's it, must be me, but can someone tell me of an "actual" (ranging from 2007-2010) racing game with good scenery and unique tracks instead of the same old copypasta? much help appreciated, thanks in advance guys

already have burnout paradise, got burned...fast, finished the game and the game really doesn't have memorable scenarios

and dirt...well, I HATE "off-road" type of racing with a raving passion, everything from collin mc rae and alike

I was refering for example....

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07Ik-dyYBtw&feature=related

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4D2V4905Yuo

am I the only one that actually cared about the scenery and the feeling of driving in those places as opposed to "just race this track or city repeteadly until your fingers fall off"?, take a look at the last video for example, hot pursuit, good music, awesome scenery (raining and all for it's time as being so incredibly old), good gameplay overall, those games had greeat scenery considering how old they are

are there no games like those anymore?

lol man i no what u mean i grew up with NFS hot pursuit, but those days are GONE, its all about sim and arcade type racing mixed together, GRID is a straight out sim wanna be, the truly last NFS game is most wanted.
