SPOnG: "Need for Speed games have always (except for once) been shit. They've also been Christmas Number Ones more times than I care to remember. Or more precisely more times than I can be bothered to look up, because let's face it once would have been once too many.
Except if it had been 2010 when NO NfS game was NUMBER ONE, even though that's the one and ONLY time that the “series” deserved it."
“We really tried to break some new ground.”
After nearly three decades of NFS games, here's a list of the best Need For Speed titles that have ever been released in the past years, ranked by The Nerd Stash.
Best NFS in my personal opinion
Highstakes, Hotpursuit 2 and Underground, Mostwanted, The Run.
Rest of those titles are Junk,Crap, disappointing.
Paul writes - "EA know a good thing when they see it, and for multiple years November was Need for Speed month. In a break from the usual routine, I'm going to be looking back at two games here, released in 2005 and 2010 respectively. The earlier game is Need for Speed: Most Wanted, which has the distinction of being one of the very best in the franchise. The second game comes from 2010, and is Need for Speed Hot Pursuit; which I'll talk about just as the Remastered version of the game has hit the stores."
I completely adore this game! In fact its probably my favorite racing game. I recently dusted off my xbox 360 to play Most Wanted 2005. Still a great game, though I do not remember there being such horrible performance. Like massive frame-pacing issues. screen tearing, latency. If any game ever truly needed to be remastered, it this one for sure!
NFS Porsche Unleashed was freaking awesome.
NfS Hot Pursuit (2010) was the worst nfs ever made even worse than The Run. Both where boring as hell. Most wanted and Underground 2 where the best nfs games ever made and a lot of people want Underground 3 including me.
