I Love the game Need for Speed saved it with the customization dang near everything you find in stores. MY FALTS are were are the classics. Dodge charger and challenger Shelby and others the Nissan 370z is missing. Subaru s i mean the game is amazeing but alot of the cars we grew up loving are simply not here, I would add all the cars from previous Need For Speed games to include trucks,SUVs,Classics and more hot rods. UNDERGLOW AND DYNO TESTING bassicly Remake NEED FOR SPEED UNDERGROUND 2

Review title of TheDriftingStigIt's Starting to Look Like the Old NFS

When I think of Need for Speed, I think of ridiculous customization and arcade style driving. I think this game was good and I did like the story a lot, but the vehicle physics were too bad to the point where you'd slightly turn your car and the back end would literally slide out for you; this game's physics engine was way too arcade-like. I did enjoy the car customization but I have seen a lot more in the past from NFS (neon lights, trunk customization, and how doors open in NFS Underground 2 and Autosculpt in NFS Carbon). I'm wondering if the developers are going to bring those back in future games to make it seem amazing and new, although I wouldn't be surprised. My favorite NFS is Carbon, simply because the amount of exterior modification was unreal. Carbon also had the best police chases in my opinion and they were fun if you just wanted to drive around and cause trouble for hours. Please bring back the old NFS and better driving physics!

Review title of TheFapman96A Decent Return

I love the older NFS games like most people. And in my honest opinion, it's alright for what it offers. Yes the handling is very awkward, but I've realized that this game is all about tuning your cars as you upgrade them. Basically if you're going for pure drifting (which is what the majority of this game seems to focus on) than you must go for a drift style build. And another thing is that I've always played the older games in automatic. But here, auto seems to be like a sin because it slows you so bad especially in drifting. So manual is a must use. And the car selecion isn't too bad #SkylineMasterRace. But overall, this is a pretty decent start to coming back to the roots of what made NFS so popular before. On a personal note though it's really nice to see EA and Ghost take 2016 off from making the next game. So major props to both. If you're interested in trying the game I recommend either you get the EA Access 1 month or find a good rental (same thing anyway kinda)

Review title of SharpieDragon70Alright

The game overall plays alright, DEFINITELY takes some getting used to. However... The traffic A.I is far from even ok, the racers seem very miixed in capabilities some drive like actual people, some like they're in bloody Mad Max, others seem like they're taking the driving test for the first time. I do love the fact that even the slowest cars in the game can be made into pure bred race cars, I literally have just been using the Fox Body Mustang. My game as of currently somehow uninstalled itself and I cannot even re-install it... Sucks.... Overall the game is decent not ground breaking, but if your into street racing this plays better than the crew... I am very mad that NFS is having these issues...

Review title of OrangeGrn TrollBEST DRIFT GAME YET!

When i first picked it up back at launch,i fell in love with the game,and thought i was a master in the begining allmost untouchable,a lil ways in it got hard,real hard,i couldnt catch that drift,so i took a break for a while,came back and all these updates made the game 100% better,i had fallen in love again,got 20 achievements in 10 days on off play,with moderate difficaulty,and the more harder ones to boot,all in all love the game,its awesomely fantastic,i shall play it for many more days,sad to hear about no more updates,the only 2 things i wish is that,is that time progression time of day and weather was a feature that was constantly changing to show time lapse,and different racing conditions,also a bigger more lengthier soundtrack,current songs are off the hook,but need more!also the abilaty to turn off music completely 4 those late night runs & engine roars would B awesome,& last more garage slots,@ launch 5 now 10,need 2 colect all,but overall seriously impressed with D game!

Review title of CynicalDarkpretty but no heart

the game looks nice but it a boring racing game, and heres a hint you don have to upgrade you car cause the computer scales your opponents to you cars power, and there is no real feel of winning when the AI is programmed to keep the other cars close to you and over take you to keep the tension going, its all a set up, its just another racing game they put out there to make money, but on another note the customization is really good

Review title of UnknownAlmost there.

This is the closest Need for Speed has come to making a great game in years. If it were not for all of the DRIFTING requirements. Stay together with A.I. that drive 30 miles an hour and then burn off on you. I just want to RACE. Not try to score imaginary points based on how long I can skid sideways. Customization is back and pretty good. I still want ground effect lights though. You can finally run from the cops with other people. But the drifting screws it all up. And now they are making a new game. Looks like mad max. I don't think they will never make a great game again. Its a shame they continue to put this crap out year after year but Lionhead was shut down.

Review title of ItsWhitey92It's OK

The game is OK. It needed an offline mode, better AI, and most of the achievements are too easy to get. Also, this game has an awful selection of cars. They did release a Hotrod update with two or three vehicles, but nothing I'd really want in a racing game. It is really missing a variety. If you want a quick way to boost your Gamerscore, get it. If you want an enjoyable racing game, don't bother.
