Pinnacle of arcade racing games. Perfect selection of cars, courses, soundtrack, and most importantly slick controls and physics. Seamless online features too, since it has crossplay I never had issues finding races. Not the most “NFS-esque” title as it lacks any real customization, but other than that it’s still a great racing title.

Everything about this game is alright - has the trademark cheesy NFS story, nice visuals, and the usual progression system. It feels safe at times but it’s still a decent modern NFS title

Burnout Paradise meets Need for Speed except they remove the fun crashing elements of the Burnout titles, so you just have extremely repetitive races as you do the same thing over and over as you unlock more cars. The progression system sucks due to this, and leaves a lot to be desired. At least the soundtrack bangs tho
