Need for Speed - Before You Buy

Need for Speed gets a 2015 reboot treatment. After a year without a game in the annual franchise, is this one worth the wait? Let's talk about it.

I remember when racing games used to have split screen and you could play locally with friends.

I love the driving, but the cutscenes feel like when your dad tries to meme.

Clicked because of the great car face thumbnail.

This game definitely has some flaws but I honestly love it. The driving is so much fun and the tuning/modifying is great. The graphics are also absolutely amazing as well.

i’m here because it’s only $4.99 on PSN

you can't even pause. I can't even..

God dammit EA!

You know, I think the cutscenes are really well produced, except for the terrible dialogue. They are well shot and blend beautifully with the game world. In the garage as they walk around your car, that's your in game car in a live action cutscene and it works beautifully. I'm a fan of the POV camera and I actually think it works better here than it did in the movie Enter The Void.

i agree with the no offline mode. The "offline" mode is just solo play, you can find it in the options once you're in the garage. I've played Hot pursuit 2, Underground 1 & 2, Most Wanted, Carbon, Undercover so im pretty familiar with the series. The cheesyness with the cut scenes was present in MW, so its a good throwback. I've put 100hrs in the game, 100% the game and i still enjoy it and play it daily. Racing randoms and just trying out all the cars is the best part. Cops are annoying starting out but get easier as you upgrade your car. I definitely recommend this over The Crew hands down.

Corny 1st person cutscenes is true need for speed...




MW2005
Underground 1
Carbon
Underground 2

Why is everyone complaining about real life cutscenes? In most wanted 2005 they were real life and it is the best game of the series.

6:33 lol what happened to his voice at "Subscribing"?

Dude theres never any cops what are you talking about? And the cops are so easy to get off I usually slowdown so they can catch up

[lee]

It all comes down to opinion with any game
u never know if a good is good unless u try it out, no matter what reviewers or critics say

[_SPACE_CWBY]

I liked this games tone... the whole underground feel.

0:24 that's all I want to hear, I know i'm 4years late but I just buy a PS4 and trying to find a good racing game, and after hearing what you've just said I just found my new racing game. thanks

I might be a big fan of Nfs, but i won't buy a game that you can't f*ckin pause properly to go and take a shit!
I won't buy it until they release an update that 1: Allows us to play without an internet connection. And 2: Adds a real pause option, manual transmission and cockpit view for every car!
Thx for the video, it opened my eyes once again.

no one noticed the "Butts" license plate?

6:33 "sub-SCRIBing" voice crack

[usrnm]

ach, EA always finds a way to fuck up their games. They better fix this crap before they release it on pc

[layndr]

Going to buy it when it's available on PC.
