This game has a bit of both good guy and bad guy playability. You can be the police or the racer. It's not too violent and my son enjoys playing it.

Still prefer PGR but this is fun. Starts slow but once you have made some mods, it picks up quite a bit.

Wanted a racing game for the older system just since it's in the house. This wasn't bad for road racing versus track racing.

NFS Rivals is a change from other games in the same category but could have more levels of challenge and options.

ND4SPD has had a wide variety of games and they have usually been very entertaining however this constant fad has forced EA to push out games under the ND4SPD franchise that aren't always true to the spirit of the original and the career mode is laughable, and being out in the country (thus stuck with EVDO or DSL and this is causing a loss of sales as I am NOT buying games that require a constant internet connection, I have purchased several games for the PC, and Xbox 360 over the holiday sales and I just can't see paying $50-$60+ dollars for a game with 2,3,4 or more disks and then having to spend 3 to 7 days installing and updating the game from "Steam","Origin", "Guild Wars 2, IE Arena Net" and I am going to have to put my money where my mouth is and stop purchasing games that require a always on internet connection, these updates/installs tend to be 5GB, 11GB, 28GB, or more which is just plain dumb as the disks that you buy at the store have all the data on them, so why do you need to download them? I know people that have bandwidth usage limits, and then you spend 4-6 weeks to install and play a game that you have been waiting a long time to buy and play, yet "pirates" can download the game, install a .exe crack and be up and running in very little time and this just seems to promote piracy which i despise as i believe that if you like a game you should pay for it so that another can be made, This is completely unfair and disorganized. Please push game manufactures to make at least the "single player'' or "Campaign mode". For example in addition to this game I purchased CoD BlackOps2, and GHOSTS, as well as Battlefield 4, Mass Effect 3, Guild Wars 2, and several others, and i have played 1 mission in BF4, and about 3 hours in Guild Wars2 as it takes so long to install, download, update, and jump through a bunch of hoops just to play a game. I have friends that have Comcast 20Mbps "gamer packages" and even they complain that it takes a long time just to play a game 9even on a game counsel such as Xbox360 or PS5 and this really must change and as a paying consumer I have had enough and I will just go back to playing of games even if it means running VBox, or VMWare and just play some "old school" games that just work out of the box, IE: open box, insert disk, select install, enter the CD-Key or Serial Number and i can be play!!! I would hate to do it as i have 12 (1 - i7-950 on a X58 chip-set with 48GB ram and a 1TB Hybrid SSD and a HD4870x2), (1 - 2600k on a Z68 chip-set triple channel mobo with 32GB RAM, dual 1.5TB, and a HD5870 Eyefinity 6), and my newest one is a Socket 2011 i7 3930k Hex-Core on a Z79 chipset with 64GB of Quad Channel RAM, dual 1TB Hybrid SSDs, six 3TB HDD, and dual HD7970's and a Corsair 1200 Watt PSU. My laptops at equally impressive with 1 - ASUS G75 ROG w 32GB RAM, 500GB SSD, 1TB HDD, 2GB nVidia 660GTX. and more, and the best speed i can get from any ISP is 1.5Mbit/down and it just takes to long to even open game, much less install from STEAM or ORIGIN, etc and then play so PLEASE BEST BUY, I have been a loyal customer for over 23 years and all i ask is that you put some pressure and provide feedback to these companies that think it is no big deal to download 25-30GB just to play a game, i could understand if you purchased a digital Copy but i buy physical copies at your store and i expect to be able to drop the disk in the PC or Xbox.
I wish that ND4SPD had a better single player or campaign mode as i am not a fan of the "play on Xbox live" against people i don't know, but worst of all is the damage, compared to Forza it just isn't a very realistic game in comparison, but PLEASE for the love of god help us (those of us that BUY GAMES, but are limited by are internet speed to do something to be able to play the games that we spend our hard earned money on, or else the companies that make these games, and companies like yours that sell them will lose our business!
Thank you and best regards
