Need for Speed Review [Capsule Computers]

Nathan from Capsule writes:

"Most fans of the PS2 era Need for Speed games will love this game. It takes most of what people loved about those titles and brings it to an all new generation but not without it's problems. The story is decent, the core racing experience and car customisation is excellent and the games visual and audio presentation do all three of those elements justice. Unfortunately issues like rubber band AI, weak cop chases, the always online requirement and a handful of other problems bring down the overall experience. If these issues don't bother you or you're interested in this game and have played some Need for Speed before then I would definitely recommend it. No doubt it's a fun arcade racer you can sink hours into, however those who are easily bothered by the aforementioned issues should probably wait for a cheaper price point."

Oh ea... Your ability to destroy everything you touch will never cease to amaze me. I guess Madden is still going but only because the people that play it are not very intelligent. That, or they're masochists that love getting screwed.

underground 1 and 2 are still the best ones.

And they're spent every game after that trying to chase that high and never meeting it

Makes you think if gamers are looking to relive nostalgia or each dev that has attempted to mimic the glory days are just incompetent?

DarXyde507d ago

Truth. Loved Midnight Club.

I wouldn't be mad at another proper Underground or Most Wanted (PS2/X360) entry though.
