Playing NFS:Hot Pursuit now. Any tips for drifting/turning around corners?

This is what I did - approach the corner at a high speed (the higher the speed, the faster you will get out of the corner without losing much speed), steer towards the corner and press the brake (not the hand brake) plus the accelerator alternately in very short intervals when counter-steering. Use nitrous to quickly gain speed after steering out of the corner.

Will take some time to get used to it. With a controller it is much easier. :)

Thanks for posting a pic of this nifty little application. I installed and it and it's running great! With this and Backloggery I'm a happy gamer with all the stats of my gameplay. :D
 
Re: Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

With my busy schedule I guess I'll never be able to finish my PS2 backlog :P, forget PS3 and Xbox 360!

Therefore I have switched my gaming fixes from consoles to portables, notably the iPhone. It is a great gaming platform and has tons of quality games. I will now make a checklist of my iOS gaming backlog.
Done -
Angry Birds (Too much bird action after completing this! Need a break)
Cut The Rope (Fun game, too easy I thought)
Cut The Rope Holiday Pack
Stick Cricket (A relatively unknown gem, got me hooked during the World Cup fever)
Need For Speed Undercover (My first ever game on iOS, still love it)
Peggle with Peggle Nights (Decent game, still go back to it when I bored)

Currently Playing -
Fragger (Another physics based game, good)
Mutant Bash TV - Rage HD (Amazing graphics, fun gameplay, too short)

Backlog -
Angry Birds Seasons
Angry Birds Rio
Blades of Fury
Canabalt
Game Dev Story
Gun Bros
Guerrilla Bob
Infinity Blade
Need For Speed Shift
Need For Speed Hot Pursuit
Plants Vs Zombies
Time Crisis
Time Crisis 2nd Strike
Way of the Samurai
ZombieSmash

Any suggestions? Reviews? Expert opinion?
 
Re: Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

^That's a pretty decent list phoenix! A new bunch of backlogs for the iOS platform awaits me starting this weekend! :D

Here's what I have shortlisted:

Infinity Blade

Dead Space

RAGE

Mirror's Edge

Metal Gear Solid Touch

Assassin's Creed: Altaïr's Chronicles

Ultimate Spider-Man: Total Mayhem

Hero of Sparta

Canabalt

Tales of Monkey Island is also out wewt! :D

Btw since you have the iPad why not get it for that instead? It has a bigger and a better display and there's plenty of space for the touch inputs. I have the iPhone but decided to get these for the iPad 2. :)

Time to get yourself laid Mr. Jim Raynor! Striking off Starcraft II: Wings of Liberty from the list. Might begin Transformers: Dark of the Moon or Trine (if I get the X360 receiver i.e.). :P
 
Re: Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

Gannu, I was thinking about getting Tales of Monkey Island series for the iPad just now and I saw your post. :)

Still have to go through a lot of games on iPhone, and starting them all over again on the iPad seems such a chore! Take for example Angry Birds, great to play on the iPhone but I got bored easily when I played the iPad HD versions. I mean it's like been there, done that.

As for Angry Birds the game goes, it is fun to play the first time but does it have re-playability? Dunno.
 
Re: Your Gaming Backlog/Progress Report!

^Exactly my thoughts. You know what, the first time I saw the game on a friend's Spice phone I wasn't impressed. It's a good TP for sure and probably lasts 10-15 minutes but that's it. Good for passing time during bus commutes. But doesn't offer replayability value. One can have the game to show his/her spanking new tablet to their friends. :lol:

Oh and completed Transformers: Dark of the Moon. Might begin Trine today. :)
