Too much direct influence from Burnout Paradise IMO (duh same dudes who made it). I really liked Underground series and Most Wanted, they should create them more like that again. This seems more like a experiment from Criterion than it was an attempt to create a good NFS game in the NFS culture.

Burnout: Paradise was better than any other previous need for speed game  :mellow:

It's quite awesome except for fact that the "storyline" is missing for me. The old Need For Speed Underground way of getting into races which isn't that exciting. You don't have to get away from cops after a race, that is weird(do I simply disappear?).. Need For Speed Most Wanted was better in that way. The driving is quite cool and easy which I like. The car damage is just awesome! Looks great! :D Haven't done much but I think I'll finish the game today lol because I played this for something like 40 minutes and I got nearly all cars un-locked. One car a race, that is a bit too fast, imo. Oh, well.. I will write something more when I finish playing it today :P
Great game overall, btw. :P :euro:

True, but it's a totally different game too as in history and type of racer. :P

Colin mcrae series(including DIRT1,2,3.. 3 won't have the CM title anymore but it still will be there for me anyway) or Burnout.. ow and dont forget all the rally games like WRC, RBR and so on.

NFS were really good games, I really enjoyed underground 2 and most wanted, Carbon was great aswell.. but from there on it got trapped in a bottomless pit  :(

Need for Speed has never tried to be a realistic racing game, and thank goodness for that! It has always been an arcade game and it will always be, although they tried going simulator with NFS: Shift, but failed miserably.
Last good NFS game, apart from this one, was Most Wanted. In Carbon the races was okay, but the drift and hillclimb part was a total failure, and the game was short as hell.

Awesome game!  :P Got stuck on the Gallardo race in the dessert with loads of cops. Will pwn the shit out of that race tomorrow before I go to the crazy bar crawl - BOOM!  :happy:
