You probably might think that it would be better to congratulate visitors of a Counter-Strike site on this holiday, but the large percentage of the male population on our site should not be ignored.
All right, I'll drop the pathos.

We all know that EA is already making NFS12. That is indisputable. However, we do not know which direction it is taking. According to a small note in a financial blog, they stated quite definitely that the game would return to its old roots, but at a new stage.
Frank Gibeau, president of EA Games, mentioned the following priority guidelines for new Need for Speed games. At the moment, the next Need for Speed is not a surprise in its development (priorities have been leveled off since 2002, with Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2). Gibeau did give analysts an idea of the primary view on the direction EA has chosen for the next installment.
Noting that sales of last year's Need for Speed ProStreet did not match EA's hopes for the game, Gibeau said he thought this was because the series had become too far removed from what consumers expected. ProStreet downplayed tuning culture and eliminated the police-evasion aspect of previous versions in favor of completely legal closed-circuit racing. For the next Need for Speed, Gibeau promised that the series would return to its roots with many features, including open-world racing and a new kind of highway battles.
The funny thing is that tuning is NOT the roots of Need for Speed.
However, police have always been a welcome addition to any NFS.

Information about the new NFS12 installment has appeared on gamespot.com:

«Gibeau mentions new Need for Speed installments from EA. The development of a new Need for Speed installment comes as a surprise (the Need for Speed franchise has not changed since 2002, Hot Pursuit 2); Gibeau has done analytical work on early views from EA's management and believes that making a new NFS installment would be tempting. Note that sales of Need for Speed ProStreet in 2007 did not meet EA's expectations. As mentioned earlier, Gibeau is considering a return to past NFS installments, regardless of what the consumer will be like in the future. ProStreet has a good tuning base and closed-track racing, while previous installments focused on evading the police. In the new Need for Speed installment, Gibeau promises to return the series to its roots along with numerous features (performance tuning, styling, etc. – author's note), including an open game world and new race types.»
