The ones where Need for Speed goes legitimate... again.Need for Speed: Shift is a sub-series of Electronic Arts's Need for Speed franchise, consisting of Need for Speed: Shift (2009) and Shift 2: Unleashed (2011), mainly developed by Slightly Mad Studios.note EA Bright Light developed the PSP version of the first Shift, while Straight Right developed the iOS version of Shift 2: Unleashed.The first Shift is a second crack at realistic racing in the Need for Speed series following Need for Speed: ProStreet, and is devoid of any storyline, although its PSP version includes a story mode recycled from the console versions of ProStreet and brought back some old characters from it along with new ones, basically making an Alternate Universe, while the gameplay is more arcade-like compared to the console and PC versions. A Xbox 360-exclusive DLC pack is also noted for marking Ferrari's only appearance in any of the Need for Speed games following its first "classic" era until making a full return in Rivals.Following the commercial success of Shift (especially in comparison to its predecessor, Undercover), EA green-lit a sequel, Shift 2: Unleashed, which became noted for its unusual lack of the series' name in the title (although fans still call it Need for Speed: Shift 2 – Unleashed, as it still used the logo the franchise used at the time) and its handling model being massively expanded from the first Shift.On May 31, 2021, EA announced that download versions of either game would no longer be available for purchase in any online stores, although noting that the non-download boxed EA DVD versions of the game can still be purchased from some online stores until supply runs out. | |

Darker and Edgier | |
| Need for Speed: Shift (Video Game) / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: In contrast of the Lighter and Softer approach of the first Shift, Shift 2 takes a dark and gritty step further than the former. When you start the game, you are greeted with an introduction of a very still but disturbing scene of a brutal car crash during a night race. And not to mention night races alone are also introduced in the game, a first for a simulator-style Need for Speed game (ProStreet and the first Shift took place during the day), which also adds up to the danger factor. | |

Anachronism Stew | |
| Need for Speed: Shift (Video Game) / int_259d5879 | comment |
Anachronism Stew: Since Shift 2: Unleashed announced the Legends Pack, it includes tracks from the '80s and earlier and it has no problem bringing a modern car to it. It can result in such weird sightings as bringing an SLS AMG to Hockenheimring 1982 or even bringing a Bugatti Veyron or a GT1 car around the 1958 version of Monza. The same trope would apply to Slightly Mad Studios's future games such as Test Drive: Ferrari Racing Legends & the Project CARS series. | |

Game-Breaking Bug | |
| Need for Speed: Shift (Video Game) / int_33ca811a | comment |
Game-Breaking Bug The PS3 version of Need for Speed: Shift Need For Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed has a bug that sometimes the game crashes in the loading screens. Also, this game has a bug that speeding in the night while driving the Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution MR VIII Speedhunters Edition, the game will crash. This bug only occurs while doing the last race of Works League Championship in Mount Panorama and the Endurance Championship and Endurance Challenge of Champions in Nürburgring Nordschleife. | |

Boring, but Practical: Take any stock Tier 1/D-Class car on any track and you can attain a 100% Best line and master all corners with ease. Mastered corners and attained 100% best line are marked permanently and there is no need to do these tasks again when you race on the same track. | |

A Taste of Power: In both games, you get to drive a powerful car during the game's tutorial before you're off to buy your starter car. Shift puts you in the BMW M3 (E92) around Brands Hatch, while Shift 2 puts you in the Nissan GT-R NFS Edition around the Suzuka Circuit. | |

Money for Nothing | |
| Need for Speed: Shift (Video Game) / int_5534431f | comment |
Money for Nothing: While this is a common issue in Need for Speed games (ending up with a big bank account from winning races, yet having none of the higher level part tiers open up so you can buy new swag with your loot, so by the time you have the option of buying new parts, very often they won't dent your funds enough that you'll care), Shift 2: Unleashed is even more so, as cars and upgrades in it are sold at exactly the same price as they're bought, meaning you'll wind up with ever-increasing amounts of money. | |

Old Save Bonus: Similar to Hot Pursuit (2010), Shift 2: Unleashed offers "loyalty bonuses" if you played a previous game in the series, usually in the form of additional experience points. Having played Hot Pursuit (2010) also unlocks two additional cars in Shift 2: Unleashed: a Pagani Zonda Cinque Roadster in "NFS Edition" colors, and a Lamborghini Reventon in a Seacrest County PD livery. | |

Cool Car | |
| Need for Speed: Shift (Video Game) / int_8a295a46 | comment |
Cool Car: While the franchise lives on this trope, the Shift games seem to be intent on trumping 'em all. The first Shift has the Maserati MC12 Corsa and the Lamborghini Reventón, along with the McLaren F1, Bugatti EB 16.4 Veyron, the Koenigsegg CCX, and the Ford Mustang Shelby GT500. Still no Ferraris, but the Maserati MC12 Corsa uses the engine, chassis, and other internals of the Enzo Ferrari, so it'll be good enough... unless you have the Xbox 360 version of Shift, then you have the option of downloading a content pack that brought back the Ferraris for the first time since Hot Pursuit 2. Ferraris would fully return for all platforms in Rivals. Shift 2: Unleashed has the Pagani Huayra, a 235 MPH Italian supercar. In fact, said game had the exclusive rights to the Huayra before it would become available to other games outside of the Need for Speed franchise. It's so awesome, the car's reveal trailer needs no music aside from the exhaust note... although that's not what the actual Huayra sounds like. | |

Some of the Works conversion body kits resemble as Real Life race cars: The Audi S4's and the BMW M3 E92's Works conversions resemble as its DTM counterparts. For the latter's case, the M3 DTM wasn't used until a year later after the game's release. The Supra, Acura NSX, 350Z, R34 Skyline and the GT-R (R35)note The vanilla GT-R and not the SpecV variant are all based on its Super GT counterpart. The Dodge Charger R/T takes cues of the Dodge Charger Daytona. The E46 M3 bares a striking resemblance to the highly-known M3 GTR, where as the C6 Corvette Z06 strongly resembles the C6.R. Not to mention the Ford GT's Works conversion resembles its GT3 counterpart. Finally, the Volkswagen Scirocco's Works conversion takes nods to its Nürburgring GT24 variant. | |

Artistic License – Sports: The FIA-GT1 Championship takes an amount of artistic licenses that go way past the actual one in Real Life: The rounds are 1-hour endurance races each. However the game instead uses lapped races (approx. 3-4 laps each round). Monza, Dubai Autodrome, Suzuka Circuit, Laguna Seca and Mount Panorama were never used in the real life calendar. The final race of the championship is set in Circuit Zolder instead of the Potrero de los Funes Circuit in Argentina. | |

In-Vehicle Invulnerability: Downplayed. The Player Character can actually groan or writhe in pain (in addition to rapid breathing) after a big collision if you're playing with the full damage model turned on. | |

Artistic License – Cars: In Shift 2, the game featured the "Honda S2000 CR", but it clearly uses the AP1 model. Both games claim that the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo IX that appears in them is an "MR-edition" despite the fact it has the looks and the performance of an Evo IX FQ-300. Shift 2 features the Pagani Huayra, and such a big deal was made out of it, the car's reveal trailer has no music aside from its exhaust note... except that's not what the actual Huayra sounds like. | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential | |

Video Game Cruelty Potential: Remember in ProStreet where you can wreck down an opponent intentionally and not get a penalty? It also applies here, since the game sometimes enforces you to drive dirty to spin out or force drivers off the road to get XP (Aggressive). | |
