    NFS heat

    Awesome game. I honestly think that this might very well be the best NFS game across the board. Everything I can really ask of a NFS game is there - an immersive story with interesting characters and character development, tons of customization including a vinyl editor so one can make their own liveries, great roster of cars, day and night time, progression, out of this world graphics, beautiful city, huge map, tuning your car for various purposes such as on-track racing, off-roading and drifting, live tuning.

    It's a good not great new NFS

    It's a good overall game. If you like the past NFS games you should like this one. Here are the few things I don't like though. Musics selection needs work. Building a good off road vehicle seems confusing. I buy upgraded off road parts but the vehicles ranking drops. My biggest complaint is the drift scoring. I can take my car build for racing and drift perfect corners and get very low scores. Get in my car built with "drift" parts that I can barely control, crash into walls and barriers and score so many points I've beat the event before the 1st of 3 laps is done. Overall though it's a fun game with great graphics and lots of cars to chose from and modify.

    NFS HEAT

    Brought the game about a week ago after doing research about it. Love the game ! Starting with a beamer and the police chases are fun. The police really give you a run for your money lol but thats all a part of the game

Questions & Answers
  • Do you need internet to play this game?

    No, you don't need an internet connection to play NFS: Heat, however, you will be limited to single player mode. There's no multiplayer support on a single console, much like most PS4 games. With internet, you can play online against other players which gives you a percentage bonus in experience and money when you place in competitions. That allows you to advance faster and earn more money (which you need to purchase upgrades for your cars.)
