    Mack, seriously?!
    1 - No wheel support
    2 - No in-car cam
    3 - No manual shift
    That's not even a racing game. That's just a glorified app.

      +Flick Need for Speed Hot Pursuit was just like that, and I actually really enjoyed that game. (....although it was my first NFS game I've played, and I only paid a few dollars for it...). Need for Speed is supposed to be an arcade racer with emphasis on driving fast and fun ridiculous drifting.

    • @CCH5
      @CCH5 9 лет назад +10

      Are you serious? Are you serious??? That's because Hot Pursuit was your first ever NFS experience and I can bet it wasn't one of the originals. If you had been playing the original NFSs, you would never, EVER say this. Basically you're saying - it is meant to be shit.

      +GamingTaylor You have a poor first impression of NFS, I played them all up to Shift 2 (which was amazing) then they just grabbed Burnout Paradise, changed the car & environment textures & that was all. More and more people will be making buying choices based on the shit that comes out these days simoky because they don't know ow any better. It's the same with movies, I judge things based on The Terminator, Star wars 4,5 & 6, Alien/s, The Matrix (excellent examples of their genre) what have you got not WarZ, Matt Damon in a space suit again 2016, generic straight the DVD Sci fi channel shit. That's a bent yardstick to say the least :-p
      Glorified app, love it.

      +Chivas6 Running out of fuel, its the only freeworld game that i have come across that you can a) run out of fuel in and b) get pulled over for speeding. It's almost 15 fucking years old too. The gaming industry these days is fucked.

    • @Chivas6
      @Chivas6 9 лет назад +1

      nxtmassnz
      Yeah, I think it was a points based system too. You could get pulled over and fined a small amount for a minor offence like speeding and even running red lights. But multiple minors would culminate in arrest. Way ahead of it's time for sure.

    • @Chivas6

      I agree. I'd played it before II though, but haven't finished it either. It was a revolutionary game for it's time, and regarding some of the concepts, even today! The world today also needs a Hidden & Dangerous 3.

    They should've just made everything _animated_ and got some decent Voice Actors to play the characters.
    Imagine a Telltale-style dialogue section every time you finish a big race; you get to fist bump who you want or just thrash talk the whole time.

      Was the old NFS Most Wanted also not only in night time? Don't know for sure, but never did bother me one bit.

    • @TofferN
      @TofferN 9 лет назад +15

    Mack! The developers made the FMVs cheesy on purpose!! They said they wanted to capture the "feel" of the old NSFU games and they did. Go back and play NSFU 1 and 2. They're full of horrible acting, and constant nagging phone calls, and even worse txts. I agree that the game isnt worth buying at $60, but they did what they set out to do..... they remaid NSFU. That game was just ok back then, and it is still just ok now. So.....mission accomplished. Its fuckin EA Mack....would you expect anything less? Maybe they should bring back Brooke Burke. Only this time, she can only open her trap for *BELL RINGS*.

    One thing that tears at me with the live action cutscenes (and it's a small detail but still) is that the characters who are apparently cool dude mechanics are perfectly clean and neat with nice hair and not a single drop of sweat. I can't f*****g stick that!
    I want to grind their faces with sandpaper and squirt them with engine oil from a super soaker. ANYTHING to make it look it look like they just did some physical work. Part of the joy of working with machines is getting dirty. BLOODY AUTHENTICITY.

    How can Porsche give these guys exclusive licencing,? It's so silly how the sun starts to rise as you drive up the mountain roads and sets as you drive back down. Mack I have to disagree with you on the customising, some cars have very few parts like the Viper, MX-5 etc and the F40 has none and the cars that do only have the same couple of generic parts.

    I really liked this franchise of games so probably could have looked past a lot of this installments faults and flaws, the killer for me though was the lack of a solo player offline mode, I will definitely be giving this one a miss because of that. Coincidentally (or not) EA's other big release this year "Star Wars Battle Front" (which I was also really looking forward to) is another one I will be giving a miss due to the lack of a single player campaign.

      +Sidgi Zejnalov Yeah I was a massive NFS fan and although I had fun with this review it really pissed me off that I still don't have an open world driving game that is good for the PS4.

    Burnout Paradise was a fantastic open world racing game packed with content you said you'd love to see. It's such a shame that people didn't like the direction it took from it's previous titles. I hope the bring it back. :)

    You didn't mention the soundtrack, I like the new approach with trap and electro.

    So it would be worth a buy if I got it for 19,95€ from PS Store right now?

    My favourite NFS game has got to be High Stakes (AKA Road Challenge in Europe). It was the first NFS game to have damage in it, and the first one to have a career mode. It had good rural tracks and plenty of cars (for the time, anyway), and I just remember having a ton of fun playing it. I think it may have also been the first NFS game with customization in it? Mind you, it wasn't terribly thorough customization, but you could basically upgrade your car from "Stock" up to "Performance Package 3," improving its overall parameters.
    Mack, I would kind of disagree with your assessment at 11:49 that the consoles are to blame for NFS's decline. Every single NFS game that came out for PC (besides the F2P ones) also came out on console. NFS has always been "consolized," i.e. it's always been very arcadey, but it used to be a lot more fun. I think the main problem with NFS today is not consolization, but just plain bad developers (or maybe it's EA's fault. Yes, I'll blame EA).
    With that said, consoles definitely hold back gaming in general. I don't want to make it sound like consoles aren't shit, because they are, but they're only a minor contributing factor in the problems that NFS has, not the main one.

    So... Basically EA rebooting a game is more effective at killing a series and/or making it worse. Good to know, now I won't buy any rebooted games (or any at all) from EA then. I already knew Battlefront is a terrible reboot, along with Syndicate.
    And the always online... THIS just adds to my reasons for avoiding this generation of consoles. Fuck that garbage.

      +TheBricktator Wasn't that obvious since Sim City, that abomination of a failed simulation and their first Always-on shite? And didn't EA do the same to Most Wanted before? Incompetent companies sitting on licenses is the worst...

    Everyone criticizes the acting but to me it's supposed to be like that, it's supposed to be cheesy like it was in Most wanted and Carbon. Personally I missed these scenes from the newer games and it's nice to have them back.

    This game is one my biggest disappointment ever in gaming. I was a massive need for speed fan and the key word here is "was". I few weeks ago I was watching gameriots video on this game and I called it in the comments a piece of shit game that's not worth the money. I said it needed wheel support a day and night cycle and cockpit view and they needed to completely change the way the cars handle cause it looked like it was on rails as well as getting rid of rubber banding. And the fan boys came in their fucking droves and the kept saying "it's an arcade game it doesn't need it". WTF I mean what absolute fucking fuck I gave suggestions to how improve the game and the fans defended it to the end. And then I realized it this is a dumb down game for children who don't know shit about cars and car culture. No petrolhead in their right mind likes this game it's just embarrassing. The problems is the preorder culture that has developed where everyone that preordered a game defends it to death.

    This is a plea to quality. More than anything else.
    Totally agreed with everything u said there. Game looks great, graphics etc. gameplay ok, customization ok and then u go deeper, to the meat, and u see the absence of depth (depth=quality, sometimes) and everything u mention go here. Furthermore, indeed, who are these ppl? Do ppl really react and behave this way in real life? When they made the script, what are they thinking really? I would love to know their thought process on that, honestly.
    But ye, watching things like "Fast & Furious", as much as u may like cars, races etc. there is another culture out there, or somewhere in their brain failure, that sees the world like this. To sum it up, after the original NFS, they decided making games a franchise instead of out of pure passion and love is more profitable.
