Thanks for the support, everyone! This video is now outdated, as the game is approaching 11 years old come Fall 2024. If you want me to make a follow up video, I’d be happy to!
Rivals is the only need for speed game I have ever actually played from start to finish, I tried Payback and one other one but I just couldn't get into them. What NFS game would you recommend that I try out? And it's ok if you say go back and give Payback another chance. I literally have no idea what the greater story of these games are and I'm curious now.
@GeorgeRamsey22 for the newer era of NFS, play through Heat if you haven’t. The story is very Most Wanted-ish. If you like the more action packed and cinematic type stuff, give The Run a try. Both of those games are incredible. The Run is barely talked about, so I might actually make a video about it.
@@iiTsFaded_ Thanks! Ill look into those.
@@iiTsFaded_happy late new year 2024! Sorry now almost four days late to celebrate 2024 New Years Eve! NFS RIVALS is 9.4/10 game overall. Even Setsuna Yuki liked this game over NFS UNBOUND.
@@GeorgeRamsey22Pursuit Techs in NFS RIVALS is way more OP than in Unbound.
The cops in this game are literally brutal. It's a shame that many people praised Most Wanted's cops for nostalgia but Rivals had the best cops of them all.
Yeah the weapons are what sets Rivals apart. Now don’t get me wrong, Most Wanted cops are good, but they use traditional pursuit methods to take you out, they don’t have weapons.
@@iiTsFaded_ I get the point why MW 2005's cops are the best because their police AI are relentless, especially the radio chatter that is really aggressive on higher heat levels.
Most Wanted had the best cops before Rivals was revealed to the public. And then when Rivals came out, the cop chases in Rivals are deadly as hell, surpassing the AI of Most Wanted's cops.
They are literally no joke. Sure that Cross and his Corvette army are terrifying, but the worse of them all in Rivals is that the cops are driving OP hyper cars that can literally tear you apart.
Lets not mention cops can be controlled by PLAYERS which can carry out the most ungodly pursuit tactics possible.
@yvrxk in alldrive, as a cop if you grab a friend to be a racer, have him sit still while you repeatedly turn your lights on and off you can infinitely get the 1,000SP for starting a pursuit and farm speed points super easily, this might have been patched though cause I haven’t tried it in a long time
Na not for nostalgia sake but for the scene and everything was good and better than rival
This was my first NFS game as a kid. I have put countless hours into this game just driving around because my little kid brain wasn’t skilled enough to complete missions but when I returned to Rivals a couple years ago I was genuinely amazed that it held up from the memories I had as a kid and it still looks absolutely amazing
I thought it looked great on Xbox 360/PS3. Then I tried the Xbox One version...wow.
I did the literal exact same man
It’s nostalgic
You are cute UwU
Man I remember getting this a day after getting my Xbox 360 and not knowing how to play it for 2 months but after figuring it out this is the best thing I’ve ever played
For me, Rivals is my most favorite nfs ever. The number of hours I have put in this game is like no other nfs games. I still play it to this occasionally. Not to mention the game still looks so pretty even after 10 years.
Graphics from NFS UNBOUND not even close compared to rivals.
@@purwantiallan5089NFS unbound graphics are just crap ngl (my opinion)
that’s cause rivals was made in frostbit3 (frostbite 3), which is the engine used in battlefield
Bro this game is so fucking good. Criminally underrated and for nostalgia me and my cousin are playing it again, the graphics were ahead of its time it’s actually crazy
We owe NFS Rivals an apology. Rivals and Hot Pursuit 2010 were great modern takes on the classic 90s-early 2000s NFS era, when NFS was about racing everyday sports cars, cool supercars, and the rare hypercars on open roads with weather dynamics, and police chases.
I would love a Hot Pursuit 4 or. a Rivals 2!
That's why I know Blackpanthaa convinces everyone to hate the game. He just treats Rivals like a piece of shit, same thing to Hot Pursuit and it's remaster because he didn't like the mode.
Criminally underrated game, Rivals was a blast to play. Now obviously the cops are the highlight to me, but everything about this game is awesome.
(Seriously, I love how aggressive the cops are)
Yep. Cops in NFS RIVALS is the most aggressive in the entire NFS franchise. Beating cops in NFS HEAT and NFS MW 2005 by a countrymile.
@@purwantiallan5089 can any of you guys please help me on PS3 to get 2 trophies on this game
my first game on ps4 back in dec 2013. i remember fighting for my life in this game. I was talking all about it in middle school back then and everyone was playing it on my ps4 good times.
Man, you know time is flying impossibly fast when people (including me) are starting to say that the PS4 is nostalgic and memorable, man i still remember the day when i first got my PS4 (i got it in Early 2016) like it was yesterday
The only problem for me is how small the map is, I feel like I'm just lapping the map after every pursuit. I know it like the back of my hand at this point. Otherwise it's such an underrated NFS
That’s because it’s hot pursuit 2010’s map flipped upside down. With the sense of speed in this game, it’s really quick to make it around the map. I’m not sure these cars were made with that in mind.
@@iiTsFaded_it is??
@@not_kjb yep, compare the two side by side, it’s hot pursuits map with the north and south poles swapped
@@iiTsFaded_ welp it's time for me to get out google drawings lol
Damn as a kid the map felt big for me even after a few years, jus always took different roads and cruised haha
I just started, and I love it. I recommend this game despite being old and less appreciated. I wish this game was the main part of nfs that is like battle royale/combat-based. This game deserves more active players!
It genuinely holds up to modern titles. Even though I played this game when I was way younger, it still surprises me it’s 10 years old
@@muddybasilisk7526Lanzhu Zhong also spent around 33 hours in NFS RIVALS just to play as "Racer Faction".
I love this game!! I love chasing racers and having AI backup, radio sound effects and all the stuff I love. I play this game everyday for hours
I can't tell you the amount of times I've beaten this game in one sitting. I should honestly attempt an Any% speedrun.
First game I ever 100% completed, met a random player and we decided to become friends to get the achievements that required a player friend. We got said achievements and never talked after that, not really friends just two people coming together to complete a common goal.
This game is really fun.
game is underrated
Criminally underrated
@@iiTsFaded_fr not gonna lie
I absolutely love NFS Rivals!
I'm saying this as a returning NFS fan (Recently I've played Unbound and Heat) and Rivals is always a game that will stick with me.
I loved being able to play as a cop and bust racers all the time, or be a racer running away from them in these super intense highly chaotic chases!
To a Degree, NFS Heat provides a bit of the intense chases. However I feel Rivals does it much better- the game itself feels really arcadey and playful which is a feeling I love for NFS.
If they were to make a NFS Rivals 2, and or make a new game inspired off of it- I'd mainly want them to take the mechanics with Pursuit and Racer tech, and also have the aggressive and chaotic A.I of the cops and racers. Then make it to where players can choose both and have story lines that interact with one another on both sides.
My Dream NFS game really is a mixture of NFS Heat's Graphics and World, Along with Rivals Police and Racer Mechanics, and Unbound's "Spider-Verse" animations/driving effects.. I really just like the idea of a super chaotic and flashy NFS game!!
The ai were so aggressive, ive been on the cop side watching players get swarmed by cops until they die, or when racers miss the side slam and fly off a cliff, good times.
Preferences are always wild. You're the polar opposite of me. I'd like Heats graphics and Underground 2's vibe and car community centric gameplay. I absolutely hate cops and just want to race around the city.
@@RacerKD2009i end up played only as a "Cop Faction" in NFS RIVALS. Its somehow much more fun than being as a driver.
What about the car customization from the more recent games
From someone whom recently started playing rivals (2 days ago) this game is absolutely amazing; I love the fact you can be a cop I’ve been hunting online players all day.
Iva already gotten the trophy for 50 racers hunted Almost entirely off of online people😂😂.
I love it cause most of them are super low levels with slower cars so it's an easy bust lmao
yeah i grew up on this game when i was a kid and still today play it and it is easily one of the best games that nfs has
@@eshanadatia9419playing right now, last time I played was on 2015 in december...
i played for 2 hours and i was having absolute fun.
Loved this game, and I didn't even bother with the online stuff. Story mode was fun as was the races/chases and stuff to do. Soundtrack was pretty good too. One of the last games I played on PS3.
I was a hardcore OG MW fan, grew up with it, then I loved Carbon and didn't even know of any other NFS titles since I kept replaying and switching back and forth between MW and Carbon, and then my dad got me a 360 and I don't know how many times I replayed Rivals, it was one of the best games I've ever played, one of the few games I keep going back to and one of the few that live rent-free in my head.
A little bit disappointed you didn't talk about the (small, but still existing) modding scene for this game. Me, GrabussPC and Hypercycle are all big fans of this game.
Grabuss and Hyper especially, as they made Rivals+ and Cops2Racers respectively, massively increasing the amount of fresh experiences you can have.
It's a pretty solid game I wish had a bit more time in the oven, unfortunate that it's often overlooked...
It completely went over my head to be honest but a good friend of mine told me to try Rivals+ when I eventually build my gaming pc so I’ll absolutely give it a go
@@iiTsFaded_ You should! It's like a completely different game
I love the handling model of NFS Rivals. It was almost perfect and could've served as base for additions, like equipping and unequipping an acquired performance upgrade. The drift mechanics is really nice and almost as fast as gripping.
Sadly this game did not have a drift vs grip slider for handling style. As well as all cars available to play with without exception for both racers and cops.
The handling in NFS RIVALS is way more intuitive and fun unlike in NFS 2015 and Unbound.
@@purwantiallan5089don’t even get me started on grip builds in 2015, COMPLETE JOKE. They understeeered so much.
I absolutely loved it on my PS4 for multiple years. My first NFS game too.
If the GRAND TOUR pursuit didn’t make you have an adrenaline rush I don’t know what will 😂😂
feels like their attempt at the race at the end of the nfs movie
i love rivals, it kept me entertained and it was stressful
Definitely the most heart pumping nfs game!
When i first played this game, I thought it was one of the hardest games ever
Cops on this game were way too difficult but I think that’s what made it fun
Same and I thought the cops in Heat were hard but in Rivals are just crazy. Personally for me the damage ruins the game but it would be easy if it was like in Most Wanted 2005
@LuchezaRStoineV I wonder if we consider rivals the hardest cops simply because of the fact that they have weapons to use against us. If they didn’t have any pursuit tech, would they still be as effective is the question.
@@iiTsFaded_ the weapons are cool but EA made them too powerful 1 hit and your car has critical damage. I think this is the reason they made the cops not that hard in Heat because people complained about Rivals. It's still hard in Heat with the 3 repairs only at a game I also hated this when I first played the game but when you get a faster car you can easily escape without even using the repair shops.
@LuchezaRStoineV yeah if they shortened the level cap on some of the weapons I feel they would be more balanced, like level 5 shockwave legitimately sends your vehicle into the ocean if you’re on the coast being chased
This was the first modern Need for Speed I played after 10 years of hearing nothing about the franchise, and I loved it, I don't know why people complain so much about this game cuz is definitely better than other NFS, cops are insanely hard, the handling was pretty decent though it was still B2D, the map and graphics are at another level like, I can't believe that this game came out in 2013 cuz it still keeps up very well for the time, and has probably the best progression in the entire franchise. Is literally Hot Pursuit but with an active open world and they did a great job that sadly no one really appreciated as it should
most underrated nfs besides the run
Shift titles as well!
I love this game this is probably my most played nfs game
Rivals is my personal favorite. The feeling of speed is unmatched in any other racing game I've ever played. And the rush you get from pushing your luck to do just one more race before the cops close in is just so fun.
Need for Speed Rivals is my favourite❤
It's one of mine too!
This was my first NFS game, and it was amazing. Such great mechanics, graphics, driving, and a solid story idea! The cutscenes are so sick! :D
Driving in the snowy mountain at night is a amazing experience in this game.💙🌌
Though the game still have bugs like noclip out of map, but still the best game.
This has to be one of the best NFS games out there. The action in the game makes a automatic 10/10 and still really fun to just drive around without being chased by the cops.
Bro it be so hard working them cops, love the vid brudda, definitely the most underrated need for speed there is, my fave personally. Getting to heat level 8- 10, is almost impossible to “get away” from cops, but u can get some serious SP by doing the “repair shop strat”
I love rivals because it was my childhood game, I still love it to this day
But if you closed your eyes
Does it almost feel like nothing changes at all?
I played this back in ps3 and hell the graphics are so over the top for it's time. The police are no joke here I tell you that.
I admit after 9 years I have returned to the game since I finally bought my own xbox and this game is still so good and underrated
we love you Kyle ❤
11 years after release and i´ve come back to complete this game from 0 100 each year for 4 years straight.its crazy how much i enjoy and 11 year old game as much if not more than modern day titles like heat or unbound
EA destroyed Criterion with MW 2012 imo. Initially they was halfway making a loyal MW game and EA wanted to rush them into make a Burnout clone just because they needed a new NFS title built using the Frostbite engine. Joining to NFS franchise is the worst decision that both Alex Ward and Fiona Perry made in their whole career. If they didn't make that bad decision, the Burnout franchise would be still alive.
Plus am I the only one who didn't face any glitches or bugs in this game except that short time freezing issue ?
Same here, didn’t have very many bugs if at all
I just love this game, it was my first nfs title and it was a blast. The feeling when you bank like 200,000 SP in one run was indescribable for me, as was when you couldn't make it. The cinematics when you weren't playing also blew me away, I just stood there watching the detail and beauty of the game. Overall this and burnout paradise were the games that brought me to racing titles and thank God were this 2.
About that what you said that some people really didn't like Rivals, it's not even far from the worst, period. Rivals is a great game but also underrated, considering the fact that Rivals was released on the 8th generation of consoles. Again, the cops in this game are very deadly, because they're similar to Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted combined together but with new pursuit tech.
The bugs and glitches might annoy people when playing this game, but it worked out as one hell of a fun experience. Playing as a Cop is so fun that you can bust Racers anytime as Rivals is set on an open-world setting of Hot Pursuit. The Risk vs. Reward was introduced here in this game, if you want to unlock cars, you need to earn more Speedpoints and complete every task. The more you complete your speedlist, the more you can unlock cars from sports to hyper.
Graphics-wise, the scenery is just gorgeous. You've got the snowy mountains like in Eagle Crest Road, the forest just like in Big Timber Pass, the desert area is like Silver Creek and Three Points Road, and the beach area like in Mission Beach. Every area in Rivals is just spot on.
And also the soundtrack in this game fucking slaps. Sure it didn't have metal music like Decadence, but it has hard EDM tracks that can make you press your Turbo whenever the beat drops whenever you are participating for an intense race with the cops involved.
Can you listen the Nijigasaki High School Idol Club songs like "Singing, Dreaming, Now" in NFS RIVALS?
@@purwantiallan5089 What do you even freaking mean bro? Like I'm so confused on what you said. Make it fucking clear.
Hot Pursuit, Rivals, and Most Wanted 2012 were my childhood games, they are still games I go back to today and enjoy.
I love this map too..
this brang back so much memories man i used to just spend countless hours driving around
Rivals is my all-time favourite game, i been playing this since its release and i still enjoy it to the fullest.
I started playing the game 4 days ago and finished it yesterday, I played the whole game in single player and it was amazing because the cops actually gave me a huge run for my money. I literally lost all my speedpoints as a racer at least 12 times because I took 1 wrong turn away from a repair station or a hideout. The graphics are also really good for the time it came out.
nfs rivals is my favorite game
This was one of my favorite games as a kid, i played it so much and ranked up alot, but one day a problem occurred where the game would freeze and then crash at the menu/loading screen. After a good week of trying to fix this problem to no avail, i gave up on the game. A little later i deleted it. Years later here i am, going through my old games, and i say to myself, hey maybe i should try one more time, and whataya know, it freakin works! So anyways, im coming out of retirement to make some more memories with this wonderful game!
It so fast, 10 years now
This was my first need for speed game and I still love it to this day
MW12 and rivals are some of my favorite games. I also like HP10 & the run a lot too. (Played both Wii, 360 and HP remastered)
I still play this game to this day
This is probably my favorite/most played game of all time (180 hours, all achievements, everything there is available to do done). It was my first PS4 game, and it is sooooo nostalgic for me. Now I have an actually decent pc, so I'm trying to get my friend group to play it together, since it is available in game pass. I'm so excited to share my childhood to my friends!!!
so much frustration with this game's pursuit system
felt
loved this game overall. the physics and gameplay were much better than the 2012 installment. only complaint was lack of true free roam in racer mode (as anytime you would come across a police vehicle, it would automatically start the pursuit) and the horrible 30fps cap
I'm glad there's still people that like this game, it IS very over looked honestly, playing this again make me wish there was more NFS with this level of car to car combat.
I hope we get another game like this again, we didn't know what we had back in 2013 :(
I came back to this game after getting 3070. This game is insaneeee
I played this alot online and had a blast. Not as bad as people say i feel.
One of the best in the series, brutal cops and high speed chases
Literally what I want in a need for speed game
I first started playing this game around early 2014 when my dad got me a ps3 as a gift while I had a cold this was the game which was still new that came with it I’ve done pretty much everything you can plus on the cop side of the game I’ve done everything unlocked and upgraded every car plus the free dlc one: 1 to the max completed every race time trial hot pursuit etc you name it I’ve done it at this point I’ve even recently/yesterday completed the final event the grand tour with every single car from the beginning to end I’ve even completed that event in 8 minutes 57 seconds which I got very lucky getting that epic time I love this game idk if it will be remastered 10 years later soon but only time will tell.💖💖
Nfs rivals for me has the best cops in an nfs games it was literally soo hard to escape them at heat lvl 10 they would literally bring out Hennessy's and the Koenigsegg's plus the inclusion of weopens, this game made my heart pump like crazy when I was trying to bank my money in the garage and accidentally ingage in a high heat lvl chase...
Nothing like getting hit with an ESF and being pushed off the map -_-
For me that was my childhood i'm now 16 and i have it since i was 7 and i have it on ps3 and 4 and i'm still playing it sometimes
And that was my first or second nfs game the first when this is second was the mw 2012
I got this on the 360, played it and was OBSESSED with lamborghinis, very disappointing to me when I stuck on the ferrari 484 italia. On the xbox one however Im now rank 21 on both sides and my main car is the Lamborghini aventador on the racers side wkth lvl 4 ESF and Shockwave. On the cop side I havent picked a main but loved drkving the Mclaren F1. This is still my favorite NFS, ive played underground 2, the run, hot pursuit, but it doesnt come close to all the memories ive had driving the 484 around while learning new methods to escape the cops... the cops are easy, i mean theyre hard in certain circumstances but they cant hold up in trafficless enviorments, Imo the racers are the challenge because theyve killed ,e on multiple occasions while i sat on the side of the road. Eitehr way, i miss you NFS rivals from the weapons to the cars, you will always be the best
honestly most wanted 2012 and the older one are both great games
As a person who was raised on titles like Underground 1 and 2, the first Most Wanted and Carbon, Need For Speed Rivals was an incredibly fun experience for me and in my opnion, one of the best nfs games in the series. I have fond memories of this game.
this was most of my child hood on the xbox 360 now i have lost the disk after wanting to play it after atleast 5 years
My Experience With the game summerized in one word frustration.
It has a sense of speed that make your adrenaline rush ❤
Rivals and MW2012 are the two reasons I want to dig out my PS3 and see if I can fire it back up. They were such great games, and were up there with my favorites despite how much everyone else seems to have hated them.
This was my first need for speed game....i still love this game
The last nfs i played. Hands down a great game. I loved the car selection and the options to escape and catch criminals.
I just got this game today and i did enjoy it but their were some crashes i got when booting up the game but its still fun to play.
Glad you’re having fun! If you’re on Xbox One, the game has crashing issues because when you start, it’s trying to put you into an online lobby. For some reason, that causes the crashes. So, to fix it, you just have to open the game with your internet off, and then you can go to the game’s settings and set the game to single player. After that, it won’t crash when you start it.
Thanks for the tip
I will be sure to do that@@iiTsFaded_
I honestly LOVE this game. Definitely my Top 5 from Need for Speed
When lootin in london comes on and u Inna bmw its like a throwback😮.
I liked playing as the cop those weapons are the best
Best nfs game of my childhood
I played it for the first time this year myself. It was also my first need for speed because I liked the idea of playing a cop or criminal. I was actually quite shocked to hear that this was the most hated in the franchise, because I really liked the high risk reward gameplay and the smooth transition's between events and just free roaming. I tried NFS unbound and it just made me want to play rivals again lol.
dude this was my ENTIRE choldhood
I really loved this game so much when i was little and i still play it to this day
After platinuming the game a few months ago i can confidently say that it's criminally underrated and best in the franchise especially the cops who give u a death sentence especially if it's a venom gt or koeniggsegg 1:1
This game is so underated in my opinion. It is a great game.
Rivals is my favorite NFS of all time. The open world was good. The car list was good. The racer/cop careers were good. And my god the pursuits were INTENSE. Plus the graphics still hold up to this day. Definitely the NFS that gave me the most chills and joy to play.
Having grown up with Hot Pursuit 2010, I've always loved this game from the start. The sheer movie like adrenaline you get from it is unmatched.
Never have I ever felt my heartbeat harder than after just barely escaping a squad of Veyrons and Venoms
this is a masterpiece. i hayed it when it came out, but a few years later, this shines like a diamond
I missed being able to manually change gears.
Loved this game, I got it on Xbox one and PS4.
the feeling of driving is unmatched, the music isn't my cup of tea so i turn it off and put on my adrenalin pumping playlist and i get shivers as im in a Hennessy venom sliding around corners, trying to stop group of racers. or in a Pagani Huayra, seeing the aero flaps moving around as im moving through traffic, barely dodging other racers and roadblocks.
both NFS hot pursuit and rivals are games i played at release back on my ps3 when i was a kid, and now with time I've gotten a new appreciation for the cars (the Huayra is my favorite car of all time just for the aero flaps that are constantly moving in game).
Great vid Man!
Bro we love you for doing this review after 10 years..Godbless
I'm not much of a racing game guy, but I did play and love that first MW on ps1 back in the day. I was working at best buy back when the ps4 released and was able to get free codes for all EA game that were available for ps4 at launch or available shortly after. Rivals was one of those and I enjoyed it a lot. Ended up putting around 120 hours into it. It wont happen but I wish they'd release a performance patch or something for ps5 and get that fps to 60.
I was looking for this type of video because I can’t stand the rivals slander anymore and I find it one of the most memorable titles imo of the franchise
I played this again after 7 years. The nostalgia was at peak.
Still one of my favorite games ever and will ever be. I was somehow able to 100% the game even with all the glitches.
This was my first and last racing game cause no other game gives that same feel that rivals does
My disc got scratched but i loved playing thys game and i haven't been able to play it for over a year
My first ever console game played so i have a bit of bias I still play it till this day and it is amazing.
so many memories
Just bought it with all dlc for 2.99 on psn figured I'd see what it was about
i love this game and it was my fav game
This is my favourite. Games rules!
