Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. "Need for Speed Shift", just like all other "Need for Speed" games, is made by EA Sports. What is the EA in EA Sports an abbreviation for?

Answer: Electronic Arts

Electronic Arts started the "Need for Speed" games in 1994. Since that time the "Need for Speed" games have become one of the very top sellers in the video game industry. In Japan, the games have been released under the name "Over Drivin".

2. What type of race that is found in some of the earlier "Need for Speed" games is missing from the "Shift" edition?

Answer: drag

There is no drag racing in the "Shift" edition. It does have all the other races listed. It has five racing levels that increase in track difficulty and opponent skills. There are also no police chases in this edition.

3. Which platform does not support this game?

Answer: Wii

You cannot play "Need for Speed" Shift edition on a Wii. You can play this highly rated game on all the other listed options. Also, you can race head to head on Microsoft Windows but not on Playstation III.

4. One of the racetracks visited in this game is Donington Park. In which country is this famous racetrack located?

Answer: England

Donington Park is located in Leicestershire, England. This picturesque racetrack is located in a rural countryside in central England. This track has long straight-aways with just a few sharp turns. Very high speeds can be attained on this track. In reality, economic concerns have closed this racetrack down after being open for eighty years.

5. In this game, crashing your car will cause what visual effect?

Answer: blurring of the screen

When you crash the screen will get blurry as if someone put saran-wrap over your screen. Your vehicle will slow down but usually not come to a complete stop. Wrecking your car may cause you to lose your bumper or other body parts but you cannot damage out in this game.

6. One of the fastest cars in this game is the Zonda. What car company makes this car?

Answer: Pagani

Pagani builds the Zonda. When the "Need for Speed Shift" game was introduced only 106 Zondas had been made. Made mostly of carbon fiber they are capable of going from 0 to 60 mph in only 3.4 seconds. They have top speeds in excess of 200 mph.

7. Where can you get cheats and/or secret codes for this game?

Answer: there are none available

This is a game that has no cheats or secret codes available. There are no code books you can buy to get further information. You must learn everything all by yourself. There are no shortcuts on the tracks either. If you try and take shortcuts you will be eliminated after two warnings.

8. There are dirt track motorcycle races in "Need for Speed Shift".

Answer: false

"Need for Speed Shift" is car racing only. No motorcycles, no dune buggies, no monster trucks. All tracks are paved. There are no dirt or gravel tracks in this game and no off-road racing.

9. What is the name of the California desert racetrack built in 1952 that is featured frequently in "Need For Speed Shift"?

Answer: Willow Springs International Motorsports Park

For over fifty years vehicles of every sort have raced at Willow Springs. The track is 2.5 miles long with nine unusual turns. On any given day you will see formula one, motorcycles, monster trucks and many other vehicles being raced at this location.

10. "Need For Speed Shift" edition has a type of race where that last place driver is kicked out of the race every 45 seconds. What kind of a race is this?

Answer: elimination

This type of race is called an elimination and can be very competitive. You will usually start with at least 10 drivers. Periodically, the person in last place is eliminated, until there is only one car left. Some of the tracks on this game will have you thinking that you are going to win, only to see another car come up from behind you and zoom past just as you are eliminated!
