Umm after looking at the videos of the next NFS game i was wondering that what happened to ferraris in the NFs series. I mean since the NFS HP 2 on PS2 i haven''t seen a single ferrari in any NFS game. Did they lost the Ferrari's license or something or what?
Ferrari did get pretty stingy about how their cars were represented. I can imagine them not wanting to be in a game about illegal street racing.The_Rick_14
they don't seem to have an issue with it in movies such as redline.

Hmm good point. Funny how for a while there they did have a problem with being in Gran Turismo though. Maybe the price was just too high.
But that doesn't make sense. I mean Ea has nearly limitless pockets and i don't think that Ferrari license can be too expensive for a company like EA. But still it would be nice if we were able to tinker with a F50 or some of the newest ferrari models in their new game.

While EA may have the pockets to go around buying up anything they want, the reason they have such deep pockets is because they're usually smart about what they spend the big money on. There's a point where it doesn't make sense financially to buy a license.

Movie makers need no permission from Ferrari to produce a movie having Ferrari racing in it.
But game developers need permissions. And very likely Ferrari doesn't like a game with such ghetto taste and a dmg system built in.

i think that ea should stop making these illegal street racing games, and go back to their old stuff with nice cars no customazation i spelt it wrong, but oh well. since they arent going to do that, they should include everyday cars, like volvos, saabs, pontiacs. does everybody know what i mean, it gets old doing up the same freaking cars, i want do up a car that i actually have such as a volvo S70.

why is it movie makers don't need a license?
If the car they film maker use will be involve in a stunt or any tampering with the car they have to get the permission. If the film make just going to use the car for one scene where a actor or actress is just simply driving or getting out the car, then permission is not required.
