EA appear to be doing an arcade game for NFS one year, then a realistic one the year after.
So for me its usually a great game followed by a game ill play the demo of for around 5 mins then never touch it again.
Need for Speed: ProStreet - Rubbish - not a real NFS game.
Need for Speed: Undercover - Best game yet, this is what NFS is about.
Need for Speed: Shift - Worst game in the series, NFS is not Forza.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit - Looks amazing, could easily be the best game yet.
Need for Speed: Shift 2 - I already know i'm not buying this, from reading the title it will be too realistic for me.
