saladthieves5273d ago

So far the Burnout series have just been much better than any recent need for speed title that Criterion games was not involved in.

10-4! lets bring back crash junctions! (god, I miss burnout 3)

Hufandpuf5273d ago

The game comes out next year.. surprising? Good thing it's Criterion, even though I just couldn't get into NFS:HP2

LOGICWINS5273d ago

Criterion! Make an MMA/Burnout cross over with robotic combatants that have thrusters on their SHOES!!!

MidnytRain5273d ago

Jesus! It seemed not too long ago you had, like, six bubbles. lol

saladthieves5273d ago

Wait....what happened to LOGICWINS' awesome bubble line up??? Could it be...Logic FAILED TO WIN???

LOGICWINS5273d ago

Glad to see that other people on the N4G community know who I am :)

GraveLord5273d ago

Wait I thought Activision was the one that milked franchises?

Zancruz5273d ago

GOOD! They're the only people that knows how to make a good NFS game anymore....

iamgoatman5273d ago

Hot Pursuit wasn't very good though, mind numbingly repetitive with way too many time trial events. Also making it open world was just pointless, there was nothing to actually do while free roaming with very few actual racing routes anyway. All the cars handled the same and the complete lack of customization was disappointing.

It just felt like a way less fun Burnout Paradise with a lick of paint.

SMS did an awesome job with Shift imo.

Hicken5273d ago

If you're talking about the first Shift, I can agree.

Fans: Need for Speed Underground 1 + 2 Remake
EA: Why no one buy our live service games???

RaidenBlack284d ago

Bought Codemasters .... absolutely mismanaging them the traditional EA way ...

Red3f1ned284d ago

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.

isarai485d ago

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

Ninver484d ago

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

DarXyde485d ago

Truth. Loved Midnight Club.

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