Racing games are quite popular these days as many people are in love with the idea of driving around fast and expensive cars on race tracks all around the world, thus proving their superior driving to everyone involved in the respective races.
Adding much to the bragging rights that racers will earn in the upcoming
NFS Shift title, which will be developed by Slightly Mad Studios and published by Electronic Arts, the company revealed the list of badges that they can also win throughout the game.
These badges will be similar to the
Xbox 360 Achievements or PlayStation 3 Trophies systems and will be displayed anytime someone accesses your online profile in the game. Hundreds of badges will be available in many categories like track, race, career or online.
