I feel the need..... the need for speed
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Understand the nfs is arcade racing physics so I can compare it to say, wipeout. The lack of knowledge of the developers in 'tuning' is comical- the settings you adjust does not relate in real world how a car should react, even if the physics were not on point. So if the reference was rubbish, the adjustments aren't to refence or to real life! Why give options when they are rubbish to begin with? Understand nfs is lazy in their ai so rivals are tanks, catch up is on, and when you haven't crashed for a while ai will throw some cars at you to make things even. What's most frastrating is that it's so obvious and lazy I suspect they have a timer on- after 10 secs throw some stuff to make it more even. They just appear from nowhere giving little time to react, either developers can't draw the distance efficiently to keep the framerate up or simply just lazy. In a 1min lap, the objects repawn everytime, sometimes parked cars change colour. It's funny because to hit the apex I just aim for the same posts everytime. When it rains and you have significant lighting in the environment the frames drop to about 10-15fps, what's funny is speed input is still there but steering input gets lost. So, you can't steer or correct steer. Did I mention about the obscene load times also? (This is on hhd/ssd! Not in disc) The sad truth is that the only way to beat this is brute force (ie outpower significantly rivals). So little/no skill required, just grinding. Ive played most nfs games and sadly this one feels very, very lazy. I bought it for ~£1 on sale. Fortunately I didn't buy it when it was new out. I'm doing the time because nostalgic, but as a new comer/not a huge fan of nfs world, give it a miss. Definitely not missing anything.

It's good
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This game is good. It's not great, but its good. If you liked PS2 need for speeds like underground, carbon and most wanted, then you will like this game. It's not everything you will want from it, but it's a good start and it is fun.

Keeps me entertained, better than The Crew
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Trumps "The Crew". Visuals are amazing. Unfortunately, manual shifting is not an option, neither is vehicle exterior damage. Overall a fun game.

Lacking car depth
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I'm starving for a good racer with car modification ability and this is as close as it comes unfortunately. Overall, not bad but GT is better.

Give me more SPEED!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've been an NFS fan for years! This is by far the best rendition of the game to date! Reminds me of NFS 2 Underground (my all-time favorite NFS game).

NFS doesn't disappoint
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Bought it expecting to be able to play 2 player split-screen, but apparently, that feature was dropped a few versions ago. Still a fun game

Pretty good racing game.
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really enjoyed this game, but it does have a lot of glaring issues. It's online all the time, car selection is extremely limited, etc.

Need for speed, yes please!

Fun open world arcade racer ruined by online DRM
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.The biggest complaint I have about this game is the always online DRM. You must be connected to EA's online servers at all times during your play, even in single player mode. If your internet is down, or if PSN is down, or if EA servers are down, your disc is a coaster and you will be unable to play the game you paid for. Even a brief interruption in service in the middle of a race will kick you to the main menu, losing your progress. Having said that, the game is pretty fun and a relatively straightforward platinum trophy. There are a variety of events in the open world that focus on speed, drifting, outrunning cops, etc. The drifting events in particular were the highlight, especially the ones where you have to drift through a series of twisty turns while maintaining proximity to other racers doing the same thing. I would recommend buying the Nissan GTR as soon as possible, tuned all the way to the left for drift events and tuned in the middle for everything else. It has very nimble handling whereas some of the other fast cars like the Lamborghini Aventador handle clumsily like a tank.
