THE GOOD:- New game engine
- Cars make a return from older titles (Acura, Honda)
- Awesome Graphics
- Finally Some Damage
- Revamped visual styling and career map
THE BAD:
- Cheating (more on this later)
- can get repetitive after a while
- Speed challenge (more on this later, too)
- The story
- The down-loadable demo (complete misrepresentation)
SUMMARY:
Personally, I think the story was complete garbage. I assume this is only because the game is no longer associated with street racing. All for a good reason, but drained the game of some of it's familiarity with earlier NFS titles. This time around, your player has a name, Ryan Cooper. He has a background in street racing, but has brought his skills to legal road racing to see how he fairs. After a main event that kicks off his racing "career", Ryo Watanabe, the biggest name in racing, completely disses you for no reason. So it's basically your mission...
