EA today patched the PC version of Need for Speed SHIFT, adding a few minor features to the recently released racer.

The update brings support for "LAN (Local Area Network) play," which supposedly "enhances the multiplayer experience." Also added was something called "Mouse Support," a revolutionary new feature that provides "full menu navigation through the game using your PC mouse."

If you own the game, you might want to consider grabbing this 13mb patch on FileShack.

They should add, "YOU DON'T HAVE TO HAVE A PAD TO PLAY". Tap left and your wheel is at a 90Â° angle.

For all its positives and negatives, the game really surprised me with its outstanding audio. Cockpit view only however! The audio with camera positioned behind the car was, not surprisingly, bland.

I don't think the engine and 'roughness' noises (ever driven a car with a loud-ass geared dog box.. you can't hear yourself..) have ever been reproduced so faithfully.
