I was hesitant about the game because racing games are usually really good or really bad! I decided to give it a try and I'm glad I did. Great controls, graphics, sound and the story isn't too shabby either. It's also a little different twist than most NFS games and I like that.

Real cars and lots of them, nice maps and nice graphics, not a bad game at all if you ask me. If you like racing games and if you own a PS3 - add this to your list.

Good Game - Hot Pursuit was Better

I'm enjoying "The Run." Graphics are great, the variation in the types of roads you race on is great (everything from the alleyways of Brooklyn to the Smoky Mountains to the Rockies to the Desert). A previous commenter indicated a very long load time for each race. That has been my experience, too. The upside to that is that the whole map is loaded when the race starts, so there is no lagging (except in some online races when a racer has deficient equipment). All in all, this is an enjoyable game and is a good addition to the NFS series. Honestly, though, I found myself pulling out "Hot Pursuit" and playing it again. To me, "Hot Pursuit" is just a little more fun.

This game is great, plenty of cars to choose from, but I would like to see a Bugatti in there somewhere, but that just me. lol The loading fase between races is entirely to long... around 30-45 secs of loading time between each 3-5 mins race. :/ Granted I have not finished the game yet, I find myself wondering what happens at the end of the game, I can get over 2,000 miles in just under 3 hours, so is this game just a 4 hour game?

One of the better NFS games in my opinion. I like the storyline and gameplay is almost like being involved in an action movie. The game is not perfect, but enjoyable fast-paced racing action.

The Game Play is great, so many car options, great graphics, new style of NFS Racing, etc, etc.. You might not like the game if you like modifiying your own cars, all the cars in this game are fixed up to their best performance possible, the game is so realistic, you have to race from California to NY, the police chase you as well. eventho no car in this game can be supped up your gonna like it because of the many game options your given. i say buy it, you wont regret it.. :)

NFS Series is a very good racing game. It is arcade style and those with simulation or real life controls expectations should stay away from it. great graphics, good car control, excellent rendering of cars, great sound with good sound system and thrilling roads makes this a great game. for the price, can't beat it.

I bought this game, because Best Buy placed it on sale for a very low price. I enjoyed the game but many of the car sequences were not very realistic. I did like that EA added a story to the game so that it was more than just a racing game. I finished the game in less than 10 hours. I didn't enjoy the game enough to go back and attempt to earn more trophies. I highly recommend this game as a rental only unless you really enjoy racing games and want to explore the medium variety of cars available.

A good game with a few nuisances

I really like this game. I haven't enjoyed a NFS game this much since PS2. I love the cross country driving rather than being stuck on a track and I enjoy the story line. It's challenging, and the different race modes keep things interesting. I gave the game 3 stars because as fun as it is, they made it a real hassle to switch vehicles, plus you can't build the car up yourself. I also don't like how when my character gets out of the car I don't really get to play. I just follow the on screen prompts to press "x" or "triangle" etc. But overall a good game if you don't mind the lack of options.

Decent game. I played it all the way through a couple of times. Played online quite a bit. Fun to unlock cars and try them out.
Load times between races is a little too long
Graphics are good
Driving takes a little getting used to but works well.

This is a pretty good game. It's not a gran truismo of Forza, but does just what an arcade racer should do....entertain the heck out of you. The game has good graphics, sound and the cars are great.
