Forget all the bad reviews and hear from someone who actually likes racing games
check this,
i think the game is good. not as much variety as in most wanted but definatly lives up to the name. if you liked most wanted, you shouldnt be disappointed.
pros
-ppl sayin the graphics arnt that great. u gotta take into concideration that the game is set at night so it is hard to have great graphics with only dark colours. personally i fink the graphics arnt bad at all.
-the sound of the vehicles is great. some cars may sound the same but that is what it is more or less like in life. i actually liked some of the music and the sounds on the boss levels are great. although i see most people do not like them. u gotta have a subwoofer set up to get most out of the games sound.
-ppl also say the game is arcade like. IF EA WANTED TO MAKE A SIMULATOR, THEY WOULD HAVE!!!!! if u liked the rubberband physics in nfs mw, u'll love this.
- u got them wicked cgi and real life merged cut scenes. they just add a ton to the experiance. but sadly just like in nfs mw htere werent enough.
-i loved the crew system in this. u actually feel more immersed in the game when you got a crew member ridin with u and helpin you out.
cons
-there are no drag races. this was a real hit for me as drags where my favorite race in the old games
-the game is way to short. trust me if u play semi hardcore, u finish the game in 4 days. and im sayin only about 4 hours per day
-another con is that those cgi and real life ciematics dont come alot in the game. like before some races eg with the boss battles, a fully cgi movie is shown. the charicters dont look to good in this so it would have been nicer if all o the cutscenes where in that nicer format.
and thats it.
i have othing else to say.
if you can get passed the cgi some of the music and the length of the game, it is a winner and truly desendant of the nfs family.
