soooo not true. the original NFS (if any of you can remember back that far) was a challenging racer.
the police ones (sorry forget title) were arcadey, but still punished you for hitting walls.
porsche was fvcking difficult. certainly not arcadey.
its the underground series that has ruined it. fun, but only on those tracks that didnt reward you for being a wall-hugging driver ;) |
yeah the ones earlier in the series, and as far back as the original, they werent simulations, but they werent entirely arcadey, and found good ground where it was challenging, fun and relatively easy
the series probably peaked at porsche, although that was still far from a simulator or being tremendously realistic, but damn, I think it was REALLY good middle ground, and HEAPS of fun
underground.... so close to slot car racing, and crap, and the physics are just way off and wrong, although that's how they made it to be :/ in conclusion, ducks.
I was hoping with most wanted, they were going to go back to how the series was earlier on but noooooo, I guess it's a lot cheaper for them to reuse the nfsu/nfsu2 engine anyways O_o... damn EA :( |

haha, bollocks.
\\\"arcade\\\" defines certain characteristics/physics you would find in a game in an *shock horror* arcade ;)
the first NFS was not an arcade game.
the porsche NFS game was not an arcade game.
;)
edit: tho yes you are correct in that you could alter your car. but sitting there tweaking my car's performance isnt what i play racing games for ;)
and yeah, i agree 3500, the porsche NFS was a beautiful blend between simulation and outright fun. not sure about you, but i found that game fvcking tough. |

In my opinion the best Need For Speed series was the first Hot Pursuit, loved it!
Hot Pursuit 2 was very good aswell though i just didn't like the underground series.
Might check Most Wanted out but whats the Blacken edition?
btw i thought the Porsche Unleashed was absolute IMO |

i loved high stakes, it had the xr8 and hrt commodore in it :D
and hot pursuit 2 wasnt too bad, had some really nice cars in it, although that's where things started getting a little bit too arcadey, it was borderline acceptable :) |
