After a seven-year break from Need for Speed games, a ten-car Ferrari pack is to be made available for Need for Speed Shift this month: for 360 only.
The DLC is to hit on February 16, and will include the following cars:
- 1996 Ferrari F50 GT
- 2005 Ferrari F430 Spider
- 2005 Ferrari FXX
- 2005 Ferrari Superamerica
- 2006 Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano
- 2006 Ferrari F430 Challenge (Online/Quick event only)
- 2006 Ferrari F430 GTC (Online/Quick event only)
- 2007 Ferrari 430 Scuderia
- 2008 Ferrari California
- 2008 Ferrari 16M Scuderia Spider
It’s priced at 800 MSP. Unless you’re a PS3 diehard, in which case it’ll cost you your soul.
Don’t worry though, non-360 owners: two new Need for Speed titles were confirmed tonight for EA’s next fiscal year. What’s a year, eh?
PR here.

What’s this stupid shit?

Baffled much… So EA doesn’t want to make money now?

EA Like Money?.. Never.

Just a random thought – I think there is a PS3-only Ferrari racing game and maybe Ferrari can’t license their cars to other games on PS3 because of that game? Although I think Outrun has Ferrari cars…

Exclusive huh? For how long?

@4 and GT5 right?

I reckon EA can monitor NFS Shift playtime… and I reckon more people are still playing it on the 360.
So maybe it just made more financial sense to limit it to that one platform?
Especially when Sony charges for bandwidth.

I just automatically assume it’s timed these days. Most of the time that turns out to be the case so it’s hard to go wrong.

What’s the point of timed exclusivity on a game no one plays anymore?
DrDamn said:
I think szaromir has it closest. It will be a licensing issue of some sort.

What #7 said.
PS3 only owners always get mad at stuff like this, but surely, if the numbers were there and it made sense, wouldn’t companies do the samething things for both systems?
