"Racing is exhausting. Racing is violent. Racing is fluid. Racing is not muted, static or uninspiring . . . " In this new video of SHIFT 2 Unleashed, the developers put forward the realism of the driving sensations by comparing live footage with actual gameplay. Obviously they have done a pretty good job.

Hoping they improve the gameplay here and there and make it more playable...
I've always felt that racing games with in-cockpit views need to have the right stick control the head movement. I haven't played a racing game that has done that correctly, and it seems like such an obvious thing.
With Forza3 one could control the head movement, but had to first push up on the right analog and then run it left or right along the edge. Which is just far too fiddly to use.
Hopefully it controls alot better than the first shift

being a huge fan of cockpit view, this seems to take it to another level! loved Shifts sense of speed and this looks like that but on steroids. love it
I also find it funny that they're now bragging about how realistic the game is when months ago they were trying to step away from Forza and GT. Also, the idea that they're the first multiplatform sim racer is hilarious. Pretty sure Codemasters has 3 by themselves. And a final 'lol' to them complaining about the fact that they're 'car encyclopedias'. THAT'S WHAT THE SIM RACING FANBASE LOVES ABOUT THEM.
Everything about this seems like a desperate attempt to make a faux sim racing game for the arcade racer market.
Thats NOT realistic racing! thats realistic watching a race on TV.

Holy crap this looks awesome. Easily the best looking racer if that 'in game footage' is not a lie. May be PC.
Have to get a steering wheel now
Would be a good thing, but I doubt that they really dit it.
