Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed

As a LOOOONG TIME customer, I miss the old generation of games, especially Need For Speed series. I love the new games, but what I'm talking about is:
Why EA don't remake the old NFS Games??? Like Road & Track Presents: The Need For Speed [Remastered] or even my favorite of all time, Need For Speed Porsche Unleashed [Remastered] with new generation graphics... I know than Zushi Games and Destination Software don't exists anymore, but I know than all the programmers and designers of these games work with games yet, and I wonder: These games was the most legendaries that I ever played in all my life. Why doesn't have a remake? And I think the most of people thinks the same about me and prey a remake... I play NFS since my first experience with Road And Track, so it's been a long long time, I can consider than I follow the evolution of NFS in my entire life, and I wish one day this can happen, and I'll buy all, of course!!

  • Exclusivity is to prevent others from using the licensed cars in other games. Nobody herecares if other games can or cannot use the Porsche licence

  • do a global opinion poll and see what the consumer thinks ... because his decision must take precedence and EA must take into account the opinion of the players.. why not make a game that people ask for and would pay money for it ?

    so do a global survey and see what people think.. u have OVER 14 MILLION USERS AROUND THE GLOBE

    A remake for NFS Porsche Unleashed would be great. The older ones are OK, but it's still a racing game which has been recreated throughout the years. But Porsche Unleashed had great views some history, all kinds of ways to play it and rewards.

  • @dBDrama It wont get a remaster or a remake.Porsche Unleashed was done because EA signed a 15 year exclusivity deal with Porsche back in 2000.Now Porsche isn't EA exclusive and EA doesn't have a sim-style dev for NFS which means neither license nor gameplay can be recreated for a similar history style game.
  • I have longed for a remake of Porsche Unleashed (or Porsche 2000 as it was called here for some reason) or a similar game but with another car maker for at least 15 years now. I don’t really care which car maker it’s about as long as they’ve got at least 30 or 40 years of history since I don’t think there would be enough models if they haven’t been around for about that long. I loved (and still love) the concept.

    @Mr_Meccano Historic Styled NFS can't return because EA refuse to pay for all the licenses.Another problem is EA doesn't have a team making realistic NFS now,so it's hard to recapture the handling model like in PU2000.
