You are right J-2 but why Porsche signed deal with EA when they could get more money getting their car in Forza, GT, TDU...
And i think that best simulation are made by SimBin. I played Forza 4 & GT5 but GTR & RACE series are better. Only problem with SimBin is that they aren't owned by some big company and they don't have money.

Still, GTR, GTR 2, and GT Legends have Porsches at least...

I honestly hate the fact when non-EA racing games are forced to use RUFs, but RUF never made a similar car to this back then.

Calling Need for Speed ​​a "childish arcade" because of a car brand having an exclusive contract with EA makes that attitude more childish than the game, being insulted about it is ridiculous.


I meant something different. Also my comment is from 2011 😅

Did someone rumored that EA's Exclusive rights for Porsches will expire in December?

But man, why does Porsche itself agree to this cheapening of their image?


I can see just two options here:

1-They were so imppresed about Porsche Unleashed, that they signed the hell out of a contract, which gives EA total control over the use of their cars in games, and/or maybe in the contract says the deal cannot be broken, unless Porsche wants to pay a enormous amount of money or something like that.

2-They don´t care. At all. On any level.

I mean, 12 years have passed since Porsche Unleashed, and EA still have the damn license. Only one game (well, 3, actually) managed to get them too, and now, even Microsoft cannot do anything about it...maybe they are just waiting for the deal to expire (i hope Porsche didn´t sign a lifetime contract...they cannot be that stupid) because...well, it´s Microsoft. They have enough money to buy EA, but obviosly, they´re not going to do so just for a license.

But still, they tried to get Porsche back all over 18 months. They even talked straight to Porsche, and nothing happened...

That´s what i´m waiting for. The deal have to end some day...

And they blocked Forza from having Porsches, just for trying to get sales. They´re so desperate, they converted NFS into a mix of Heavy Rain and GTA, and they all know to do is trying to get attention, doing things like that.

To sum up how they´re thinking right now:

"Hey look! We have Porsches! We´re now the only game that have them! Also, we´re introducing the new 991 Carrera in here! And you can even win a real one!! And one of the main characters is played by Christina Hendricks!! That gorgeous redhair from Mad Men!! And one of the trailers was directed by Michael Bay!! Awesome, isn´t it??!! Go and buy our game!!"

Yes, it´s sad when you ran out of ideas, and you have to keep up with stupid things like this, in order to attract attention. They don´t care about quality anymore, they just think about money.

I can only hope, for the sake of games, and Porsches in them, that The Run is a fail in sales. They deserve it. (I´m sorry for the developers, though)

When i remember the good old days, when EA wasn´t a corporate monster, and did good NFS games...ironically, one of the best was Porsche Unleashed/2000, when all this began, but hey! That was an actual homage to Porsche, not like modern day NFS.

Also, Forza 3 had 35 Porsches. This, just 4. But it´s not because they have a limited range of cars, they feature 7 Nissan, 7 Ford, or 5 Lamborghini...

Why do they want the damn license then? Showing off. That´s why.

GT never had any Porsche car, so obviously this was never going to be anyway.

Where it should have been, as i said before, was Forza 4. It was already made, but EA decided to play dirty, so, no any serious car game will have this...

And again, i hope they finally lose the license, and both games can use Porsche, i miss driving them a lot...(EA can go back to sleep if they think i´m buying this just for driving Porsches...i prefer to go back to FM3 and drive them again)

This very car was going to be featured in FM4's autovista mode...

So, Porsche prefers to be in a unrealistic arcade saga running out of ideas, rather than a serious car simulator, where cars get a decent treatment. (Autovista cars even more)

If only Forza and GT could use them...
