The latest Need for Speed game titled Shift 2 Unleashed has finally made its way to retail and is now available in stores across the country. There is unfortunately no special edition for you car lovers so you’ll have to make do with the regular console version (Rs. 2499 across the Xbox360 and PS3) or the PC version, which will set you back by Rs. 999.

Get your race on

The reviews have been pretty positive so far with most praising the way developer Slightly Mad Studios have handled the kinetic and visceral sport of racing. And thanks to Need for Speed Hot Pursuit’s AutoLog system, you can now challenge your friends to races, view their best lap times and then proceed to completely destroy them.

Expect our review next week.

Nash, as he prefers being called, woke up to the wonders of gaming rather late but don't bring that up around him. It's a touchy subject. A self confessed Battlefield veteran, Nash spent a good part of 2010 on the Steam Battlefield - with Bad Company (see what we did there?). He has a zero tolerance policy towards RTS games but is currently showing an interest by picking up and moving people - who he refers to as units - in the office. Thank God he's not that enthusiastic about Angry Birds or we'd be seeing women flying all over the place. Bali... Bali, put the receptionist down now.
