are u fucking serious? if you talking about the original Ps1 hot pursuit or hot pursuit 2 I agree but the newer one along with MW2012 are absolute garbage lol dude the cops in nfs rivials are phenomenal
@@mgmmj6664 they really are, I always loved Rivals despite the bugs it was a really fun game, I experienced genuine fear, every time I saw a cop I would shit bricks, those cops were terrifying.
Most Wanted 2012 was such a blast even though the progression was odd. I loved that soundtrack, the world was a delight, graphically it felt fresh. The only complaint I had was THE CRASH SCREEN EVERYTIME YOU GRAZED A COP CAR OR SOMETHING.
@@scarybirbman9256 i do too, and the multiplayer is far from dead for an nfs game… every few days i boot up my ps3 and ppl still play there man, new and old players
Bro what are you talking about i had a heart attack when he ranked mw i literally didn't continue watching i had it for like at least 6 or 7 years and I still have it and play it on my xbox 360 in my opinion nfs mw is the best but I am respectful with his choices but lol I can't watch a video that roast mw 😂
@Eric Christy and yes the map was horrible it was so small and it was always nightime technically the only good thing I can say about 2015 was the Supra which is one of my favorite cars of the nfs series and the drifting was also awful
Need for Speed Edge is not included since A. It wasn't released in the region I live in B. I didn't play it Therefore I don't want to unfairly rank it having not played it at all or having access to it.
Nfs mw 2012 was insanely fun online and single player. I loved being able to go find the cars and progress which ones i liked. The open world was beautiful too
Naaah every single other good racing game lets you buy/earn the car you want…not stumble upon a random car and plus you cant even have the paint option that you like
@@MinosPrimeGaming_56 I didnt even know the game had multiplayer. I though Rivals were the first need for speed game to come up with this multiplayer system.
@@neilnair5388 I never really cared about painting cars. Heat consentrates on car painting too much. Its true that Most Wanted didnt have story or progression system, but atleast bad story didnt ruin the game as it did with Need for Speed 2015 with their cringe ass diverse charchters. To complete Most Wanted you need to get first place in every single kind of race, when only certain cars are accepted for certain races and so it was fun to go looking after to try find all the cars in the map. Some races were more difficult, so you needed to restart it multiple times before getting that 1st place. Polices also were preatty good and intense overall with how they tried to get you and you get a lot of money, if you survived police chase with six stars. Yes I know that progression system might be better, but you got to finish races in your own pace with you being able to choose the race you want personally. I didnt personally stumble upon Lamborghini at start or even know it was there, but that might be then one of the worst aspects of the game being able to get super car so early in the game itself.
NFS Rivals had potential to be the best NFS since Carbon. But broken B2D physics, 30fps cap on PC, the inability to pause, and the cops chasing you on sight as if you were an outlaw in the wild west made it kinda disappointing. But I enjoyed this game more than any NFS that came after it. Rivals pursuit OST by Vanessa Lorena is one of the best in the franchise. As a fan of Black Box NFS games, NFS Rivals has a special place in my heart (Rivals was developed by Ghost and Criterion Games). Also the open world of NFS Rivals is underappreciated. Ghost Games and Criterion nailed the snow in this game in my opinion. 30fps cap can be unlocked, but the fps is tied to the gameplay, so every time the game drops fps below your desired fps limit, the game will be slowed down. You will need a really strong PC if you want to play this game at 60+ fps. FYI, weapons like EMP will take half the time (or even less) to hit opponents or you if you choose to unlock 30fps cap.
@@adedhuman9582 I love how Ghost games made a decent but buggy game within a year, then took 2 years to make Payback and we all know how that turned out. However, Payback's pursuit OST by Joseph Trapanese is one of the best in the franchise and deserves more love. 6 month development time for NFS Rivals is a rumour, but it's possible to make an AAA game with over 200 developers and recycled content within 6-12 months, anyone who played MW2012 will recognize the character models of racer and cop drivers in NFS Rivals.
Glad to see Rivals gettings a good score, i absolutely loved the game and couldn't stop playing it. It's graphics are way ahead of its time and just getting into ridiculously long and large cop chases with friends and sending them flying with ESF's and shockwaves was too much fun
100% Agree with you, I got this game around 2018-2019 and I loved it. I like the progression and ESFs & shockwaves too. The only complaint is online servers when you're just starting out and good racers just kill you. But other than that, it's really fun!
I agree with you I absolutely love Rivals and it's actually my first Nfs game ever when I was Kinder, I couldn't finish the whole game but it was really great
Same. I think the main reason I liked it so much though was because it was a childhood game. It was hard then. Now, after playing sim racing games, becoming a pretty good driver (in games) and being better at games in general makes it not as fun. I do understand most of the stuff Bladed said here, except for the graphics. I feel as the graphics were amazing and still are great now.
*Most Wanted* "Biggest strenght: Nothing" Well, I mean... the soundtrack is good and, um... the engine sounds too Update: I recently finished it and yeah, it's not AMAZING, but it's not bad either, I actually had fun finding and upgrading all the cars. Was kinda frustrating at the beginning but then I got used to it and could win the hardest races with ease
Is that what you play these games for? Also i can understand that if there was more because i really looked forward to a MW remaster and got that thing with like 5-10 soundtracks that play on repeat and free cars so that we can play our own nfs version of GTA.
@@JinYo265 I really don't see how most wanted is worse than 2015 or payback. At least it wasn't a buggy mess, tuning card crap or something like that. And Heat A+??? God damn, expectations really arent high for this series, are they? It being an unoptimized hell was reason enough not to play it. It's a joke that Forza Horizon 4 runs smoothly at 4k max settings while heat at high settings is completely struggling. I'd rather play loading screen simulator than anything released after hot pursuit except for most wanted.
@@Brandon0406 get your nostalgia goggles outta here, we don't buy games for graphics (sadly, Forza doesn't care) but heat's gameplay, progression system, customisation and variety is that great
@@זהסודי-ה7מ the gameplay may be not that bad but some systems like losing all of your honestly earned money to the cops or having to drive from one end of the map to another is just plain lazy and stretches the game unnessecarily. Grinding levels for the next mission is stupid too. Especially when the story is crap. Stop praising an average at best game just because is has done some things right. I had more fun with Forza than with all NfS titles I played together. An if I cared about graphics that much, I wouldn't call Horizon 2 the best from the three I've played cause it isn't even available on PC. Again, to hell with EA, greed and rushed games. Either release a good product or nothing. But as long as people like you keep buying everything they throw at you, nothing will change. Edit: WTF did YT do with my comment? It looks completely f'd up.
@@Brandon0406 As much as I am a Forza fan, I can't help but feel like the quality of the horizon series went downhill from the legendary horizon 1. FH4 is stupidly repetitive and I got burnt out of it really quickly. About NFS heat, It has the same system for the night sessions as NFS rivals, and it gets me really excited (mainly because I know that if I die to cops, it's my fault for either not being good enough, or I made a stupid desicion). In FH4, you get everything handed to you, and that's why I got burnt out. In NFS heat, you don't need to fast travel anywhere (the map really isn't that big, btw), and I discovered most of the map (and most of it's charm) travelling between races. The story is kinda cringe but it got it's appeal and I liked it quite a bit. There's pretty much no sign of EA in this game, aside from the story being a little to short.
NFS Most Wanted 2012: Biggest strength: car engine sounds. Biggest weakness: name. And look up some info about it's development cycle, it was such a waste, only because of EA's corporate greed.
I remember playing this game for hours. The city was big and had many cool places to explore, the pursuits were great. I understand why people hate the system with finding cars but it encouraged you to drive many different cars and it allowed for switchig cars mid-chase. This game was tons of fun for more of a sandbox play
MW2012 has to be the most overhated NFS game. The game was pretty fun to play, it had a different concept. The soundtracks were amazing too. It is my favourite NFS game after Hot Pursuit because the different concept really got me into the game.
hot take this game has the best soundtrack in the entire franchise. Perfect mix of rock, edm and mainstream rap and pop music. Visuals were also far ahead of its time. You could tell me this game came out in 2020 and I'd believe you
@@copaxan cause they were legendary the physics were ridiculously funny like smahing a rear end of a roblock cop somwtimes they go flying at high speeds and do barrle rolls
if only it has an actual great story and balancing but the gameplay is very fun, the customization is also fun, and the upgrade system is absurd (especially the engine swap) but in a good way
I one of those that spend the full launch price, so yeah I remember getting disappointed by it. I completed it one time then I never wanted to play angain.
And replace the PC versions story with the Wii version's because Wii version's story at least feels complete and has a backstory, something that the pc version didn't even bother with.
6:08 Thank you, finally someone who said they like Rivals. This game really needed 2 things to be great: Better physics(both crash wise and driving into spots that soft lock your game) and get rid of this ABSOLUTELY IDIOTIC autolog system without ability to pause the game.
I liked Rivals one of my fav nfs games the car list was nice and unique on both racer and cop careers the police was fun to mess around and were intense the final event in Grand Tour is one of my favourite final races in Nfs games
I do love Hot Pursuit first. Then when I saw Rivals, I knew it was a true successor of Hot Pursuit. Sadly, not many people liked it for some reason, since I enjoyed most of it. Then comes Heat. We don't need to say about Heat.
Most Wanted 2012 was my favorite racing game for a while. I was playing this between the ages of 8-12 fairly regularly and I loved being able to just find and drive the best, fastest cars. I know it hurt the progression, but I knew that I could easily get the thrill of go fast without the hours of grinding that an 8-12 year old wouldn’t have the attention for.
NFS MW 2012 had the best multiplayer out of all the NFS games. I loved how once the entire lobby picked an event we all had to race to get to the starting point. There was real sense of community instead of just having random players driving by you in the street. Everyone was involved and the different events were great.
You're speaking so much fucking facts bro I played so much multiplayer on that game dude I used to go on like PS party chat and then play that one game where like go all around the map doing different things and challenges she was fun as fuck
Public servers are kinda a pain in the a*s to deal with tho, the only thing players do now-a-days is be tryhard's and take eachother out non-stop, and another thing that sucked: Hennessey, Hennessey, Hennessey, the Venom GT was everywhere, if you drove a Car like an Aventador, you basically lost already, no car had a chance after it got added
Proceeds to say that the fact that the worst part of Payback getting fixed doesn't count because it happened months later when Rivals only became playable YEARS later lmaoooooo
@@VNCstudios That doesn't work when his literal criteria for the games is broken by "oh I just didn't play it". Either don't fuckin' include it or don't break the rules, you can choose either of them! By the time Rivals was playable, it was dead!
@@VNCstudios Wow way to go. I was just pointing out that it's unfair to judge different games at different stages in their development. I know what he said lmfao. Toxicity is just rude.
@@THENAMEISQUICKMAN It was always playable (I and my uncle played it in release) with the exception of some bugs. If you had a functional internet connection system, you could play the game. If you wanted to play in a single player mode, you couldn't, but any game is more fun with people. EA probably never intended it to be single player but now pretty much nobody plays it...
The run legit felt like I was playing a movie, it was super cinematic and had a nice story and good music choices, honestly I could care less if the game barely last 2 hours or so, it gave a unique experience i wish more nfs games had.
To me, heat had a similar movie like feeling to it. Just racing down the street with your friends when the police come in and chase you feels like something out of fast and furious. I like it when racing games have the kind of feeling that they could be made into movies!
This is a very controversial take but Most Wanted 2012 is my favorite NFS of all time if I'm being honest. I played the game so much when it came out and I love the soundtrack. Also one of the first games I played that had the Agera R. Most Wanted 2012's visuals were also phenomenal, the way the game looked felt so fitting for the game and the cut scenes when you started races were so mesmerizing. It felt like you were on drugs, especially with the black, white, and red color scheme. The police chases in the game were also really fun for me. Building up the highest score I could, making cops follow me into a jump, or smashing into road blocks was a blast for me. I know people thought unlocking cars by finding them was really bad but I really enjoyed it. I have a short attention span when it comes to singleplayer games and having to search for cars gave me an incentive to explore the map, nothing was more fun for me than accidentally stumbling upon a super car. The game will stay a top five NFS in my heart at least :)
I remember I used to play NFS most wanted with my dad almost everyday. He was even on the leaderboard at one point. Thank you for including it as it brought back many childhood memories
My uncle had a black GT with blue stripes in that game it was beautiful,And that’s what made me fall in love with the 2005 mustangs and the sound of that 3v 4.6 was fucking mean,my first love for cars was a camaro when I saw it in transformers,but that mustang will always have a place in my heart
The old Need for Speed Most Wanted was different in a good way of course. The newer 2012 Need for Speed Most wanted was just too generous by just giving away cars for you to find and drive for free except for the ones on the wanted list like the Aventador for example.
I literally saw a comment with the same exact energy on Angry Joe's review of it lol. I heard that it's free on PSN Store or whatever, but even then, so many people hate it. Since it's still trying to bait people to pay money with the crappy lootbox upgrade system.
@@BladedAngel that’s my main issue with it. “Oh, sure you can try and grind tf out of our game. Orrrr you can buy these loot boxes and possible, just possible, expedite the process.” What sucks is the “shipment drops” (loot boxes) only contain money, trade cards, and cosmetic stuff like under glow. So I still need to use the broken ass lottery system for these damn yugioh cards
I LOVE Rivals. In my humble opinion its one of the best NFS games. Top 5 easily. The cop chases are cinematic, badass and terrifying at the same time. The AI Cops are SO brutal (especially the 280mph tanks known as Koenigseggs), the progression is grinding but also well worth it. Made you feel like you *earned* your car. The customisation is kinda limited but the pursuit tech makes up for it.
I loved Most Wanted 2012. I used to play it with my friend and we liked the fact that we were handed supercars. It felt sandboxy. Free. And how can you ignore the sounds? Hate the game all you want. I understand your criticisms. But you cannot ignore the sounds.
I know this comment is two years old but I completely agree with you, I still cant believe this guy ranked "the run" better then mw2012. I just kinda feel as if people shit on mw2012 because it bears no similarities to mw2005, which is a legitimate argument, however its not a reason to trash the game. The sense of a free, lived in open world was similar to gta in my opinion, and the only racing game that comes close is Forza.
Iam one of the few that dint enjoy as much as a lot of the community did and is because i wanted it to be like the OG 2005 but still iam happy that a lot of people had fun with the game overall i just wish it would've been like 2005. Personally i would buy it just as a collection for Racing games
Exactly it was my first need for speed game I played it on my PS Vita that I begged for from my parents it was such an incredible experience bro fucking love that game to death
His Ranking for each Game 1. NFS Hot Pursuit 2010 - S Tier 2. NFS The Run 2011 - B Tier 3. NFS Most Wanted 2012 - D Tier 4. NFS Rivals 2013 - A Tier 5. NFS 2015 - C+ Tier 6. NFS Payback 2017 - C- Tier 7. NFS Heat 2019 - A+ Tier
Lol. NFS 2015 was one of my favorite games. I love the "just sit down and watch a funny story in a racing game". I did so many drift miles in the mountains in this game and went in for hours. Probably even my most played NFS game after most wanted and Underground 1
Good video, though I respectfully disagree and think you’re super wrong in regards to MW2012. 2015 was NOT a better and more fun experience than MW2012. I just think 2012 was a great Burnout Paradise sequel, especially with the way the multiplayer was set up, and the physics were on par with HP2010 imo. The progression sucked, but the game was still way more enjoyable than 2015 to me. Also the city definitely isn’t “reused from The Run” lol, that point made zero sense. If anything the map is just Paradise City version 2.0. Based take regarding Rivals though, that game is overhated and definitely better than 2015 but totally not a better version of HP2010, it had a ton of bugs and the physics were extremely glitchy at times. HP2010 was perfect and super polished!
Most Wanted 2012 was underrated in the actual gameplay and soundtrack. I loved the graphics and gameplay, and the car engine sounds are astoundingly amazing. Best sound design yet.
I actually enjoyed MW2012 so much, it even got my friends who aren't car nerds and NFS fans to play even during lunch breaks at school lmao. The game isn't about the story, but its more of the fast paced and arcade like experience, the game you go to just to relieve your stress quick lol.
Yeah, and although I am sure nostalgia and Hype played into factor in regards to my opinion, NFSMW2012 was really interesting, and overall a good time. The vibe was just really bright, colorful and fun. Although the progression overall made the game worse, it was a really interesting idea and made me more appreciate the cars for their uniqueness and less so performance, because you could get some of the best cars right away. Although it was less traditional as a NFS game, it was pretty bold in its ideas and had a really fun and positive vibe, with the occasional artistic twist.
Somehow this game managed to be a terrible need for speed game, but at the same time just be a fun little racing game. i played a little bit and didnt take it too serious, and i had a lot of fun as long as i didnt think about how terrible some of those mechanics are for a full size game. If you think of it as a 20$/€ game instead of a 60 game its fine. i mean you literally get money for getting caught by the police
@@mateominiati5256 Brake to drift is fine...its just the NFS games since NFS 2016 have made drifting and afterthought. It just doesn't feel good at all. It feels great in Hot Pursuit. All they'd have to do is copy paste.
@@UnBR0k3enAngel Alright thanks. I was wondering because Rivals had Brake to drift, and was hell of fun. They completely botched all handling in 2015, and they have been slowly coming back with payback and heat
I feel like MW12s physics were super addicting. Definitely a step up from that of HP10's. You can hardly go airborne in HP, and the physics felt more scripted and restrictive in that game than MW12, where you can literally jump 400+ meters given you know how to do that. You also forgor to mention the sounds in that game. Hands down, best engine sounds to date
Playing most wanted 2012 in 2021, upscaling the game to 1440p and using mods, this is one of the best looking need for speed games to ever be released. It's very clean graphically and Lacks a lot of the graphical clutter the new games have, the soundtrack is also spectacular, and the r&d put into car exhaust noises really speaks to how well put together need for speed most wanted 2012 was. I agree the progression system is garbage but the map design is great and the car list is as well.
I never bought 2012 at full price. I always thought it was worth the money. Idk what it is about it, but I just enjoyed the simplicity and driving experience. If you take the fact that it's supposed to be a NFS game, but rebrand it. I think it would have done much better.
2012 was fun, with the cars and map balanced so that my in my Tesla could win every race possible. A good time. My main problem with it was that after getting through all the MW races, the game just got boring and stale.
Did any one remember need for speed carbon? That game will always be my favorite game on Xbox 360. The territories and the customization of the cars and your crew was so cool to me. The boss races were downhill mountain passes and it always reminded me of an old anime called initial d
Yeah, but this video was talking about "modern" NFS though. And to educate some people who think that MW 2005 & Carbon was the last good NFS series, but not even trying the modern NFS series
Carbon is still tied with UG2 as my favorite NFS games. Heat is #3 (never played og MW). The utilization of crews in Carbon was S-tier for sure, and the territory takeover was engaging. Customization was a step below UG2 imo, but it was still great. My biggest gripe with Heat honestly is that the whole "crew" storyline was pointless. I wish we could have our "crew" actually be in the night races with us, and provide help like they did in Carbon.
Dude when it came out I played nothing but it for a straight year. And I’ve grown up with NFS since Hot Pursuit 2 on the windows computer lol. But yeah I played the shit out of it I think I got to know Fairhaven better than my own city XD and I have no idea why I loved that game so so much
The only thing rivals and future need for speed titles need to improve is the camera angles of the cars. I need to see the road better in order to drive my car perfectly
Most wanted 2012 is one of my favourite games. I understand it has no story really and shouldn’t be titled “Most Wanted”. However, the game imo has a perfect ratio of freedom and goals. I love just driving around listening to the amazing car sounds in that game, appreciate a 360 game that still looks good, get a rush if I drive for ages without crashing, and all the time I’d enjoy the little bits of progress that didn’t force you to not feel free. (Eg I loved trying to break all the gates)
MW2012 was fun to drive around in. The actual gameplay alone was fun. And god, the Online Speedlists? Those were the most fun I've ever had in a NFS game! Also - my gosh the soundtrack!
Bro get it. I gave it a chance and now I'm addicted. I can't stop playing it. It made me want to get every single car and customize them how I want. I have 60+ cars and they're all carefully crafted. It's so much fun man, especially once you get really good at it and start smoking everyone online lol.
dude i downloaded it and was addicted from start to finish. literally my only issue with it was the cringy cheesey lines the characters would say. everything else was perfect. especially the customization. the customization is fucking crazy
Best need for speed since black box hands down. I set every car to grip and they handled perfectly, was completely blown away about finally being able to turn and not super drift everywhere lol sadly it'll probably go down hill since EA gave the game back to Criterion (the studio that almost killed the franchise). Only hope is that some of the devs from Heat can help make more racing games going forward. Heat is the Underground 2 of these days.
@@pianoman4979 I know that feeling but yeah I liked most wanted aswell and yeah I played it on the wii u aswell but that was my younger days though but it was still fun playing online
NFS most wanted was the game that got me into racing games , i was really young when i played it so it was really cool to me getting to drive all these cool cars and as a 8 year old kid the progression was pretty fun, you got to race someone in a better car than you and if you won, you kept it. so for that it will always be S tier
The online in that game was fun as fuck, and he’s definitely forgetting that the cars towards the end are much harder to beat, took me a few tries before I was able to beat the aventador
Nfs Hot Pursuit 2010 had the perfect vibe of the old nfs games from the 90s, you just have to add trance music to the game and the experience will be fully complete, also Hot Pursuit 2010 was the inpiration for the 2014 NFS movie
NFS Rivals is one of my favourites. I just really enjoyed it, being able to choose which side of the law you wanted to be on was unique and I just enjoyed the game itself. Maybe I’m biased due to nostalgia since I was 11 when I got it and it was a fun part of my gaming childhood.
I really hate the way he's putting down his opinion it's a subjective opinion but he's presenting it in quite an objective way. Especially his opinion on 2015 even though its not my favourite nfs listening to him say that it's Stockholm syndrome was kinda just ugh
All i'm gonna say is that i pretty much quit playing NFS series after NFS Shift, and here i am years later finding myself making strategies for the night rep grind in Heat....watching videos about it. Great vid, Bud!
remember playing NFS hot pursuit 2010 with my dad, back in 2012 when I 5 or 6 a kid hi was a pro gamer most of the time he defeats me !! good old memories !!
@@Stillceekay ngl these mofo's put up some good fight at hard alone, but those time trial stages at snow and the one before the sls guy made even the deadliest virus mankind has ever conceived consists of black death, covid-19, ebola, and swine flu fused into one looked like a God's gift in comparsion
The thing is , you should always compare a game by using Normal Difficulty , since that how its "supposed" to be played, the rest its just the rest Its like saying "this game is too easy because you didnt tried blindfolded"
I'm currently replaying NFS 2015 and I know everyone craps on it for valid reasons but to me the featuring of Nakai-San, Magnus Walker & most importantly Ken Block (may he rest in peace) was insane for a young car enthusiast like me back in 2015. It was also at the same time I got my first gaming PC so I was all in. It certainly has its flaws but once the story is over the game is fun, and the graphics were very beautiful Dice really made a beautiful game.
I have Nfs 2015 but I can’t grapple it’s concept I think when ghost Studios took over most of nfs we entered the dark ages but some of them were decent
I’m gonna keep this short and sweet, nfs most wanted 2012 was the 1st ever “car game” I ever had so therefore it will always hold a special place in my heart. Yes, there was practically no storyline, progression system, or challenge. But that’s what sparked my interest in cars, I was practically given every car and therefore I could familiarize my self with each car. I don’t disagree with your ranking whatsoever in fact I mostly agree but this game was great for a newbie into the car community and is what gave me my Interest into the world of cars. Now I’m 20 and I own a Subaru WRX STI (no I don’t vape) and the game inspired me into the person I am today..... Japanese imports for life....... bitch 😂
@@blodytiger3256 same bro. this is one of my favorite games. I had so many memories with it and it was so fun.... I want to play so bad now but I lost my account and I got it when it was free so I don't wanna buy it again as it's 8 years old.
Nice to see Rivals getting the credit it deserves! The game was bugged as hell, had a lot of flaws, I didn't like the faction specific car list and I also didn't like a few other bits, but may I say I really enjoyed the hell out of that game when I played it back in 2014! A lot of fun, the races were exciting, the cop chases were fantastic, the map was stunning, the soundtrack too was amazing. I wish for them to make a Rivals 2 and fix all the issues the original game had. That would be my idea of NFS getting back to form.
"Every modern NFS Game has a weakness or "sacrifice". but heat didn't" Horrific Drifting physics want to know your location Legit I beat the entire drift story missions in a stock 350z as a meme Also on a side note they made the cops way too easy when they nerfed them not long after the games launch, day one cops were amazingly terrifying
@@federicocristo1372 Yeah but considering how good drifting was in payback, at least by comparison, its like 2 steps forward, 1 step back, At least the rest of the game was great tho
Yeah i agree with you, ppl who said the run is trash, they should beat the game first, and they will know it a nice game Even the story is short, but it has some challenging races, nice musics, physics is challenging too! So it's a nice game for ppl who like challenges
The run was unfinished and not the devs' fault but it was still so unique and the handling is honestly one of the best handling ever in any nfs game. One of the most realistic for a nfs. The sounds were also amazing and just the overall concept. If blackbox was just given enough time to finish and not rushed, it would've been a masterpiece. Insufficient and improperly placed gas stations, reused tracks, lack of customization, short story. It had its flaws but it's still in my top 5 for nfs games nonetheless. I'd say my top 5 is: MW 2005, underground 2, carbon, rivals and nfs the run.
@@fuziongt payback? bruh im sorry but that game was pay to win ( in other words parts of it were really shitty ). But I get it, you probably haven't played nfs heat yet, so you don't know how much better it is than payback
Most wanted hit me hard bro, I grew up with that and I loved it. The ideal of being able to just find a car was super interesting to me. I guess that was 7-8 year old me, but I idolized it.
NFS Hot Pursuit was godly. It was everyone's dream to have that kind of Cops vs Racers game, also the multiplayer mode was sick when it came to Cops vs Racers. It was actually somewhat competitive.
All it needed was better physics, and a actual decent story. Imo i dont really mind it being night all the time because i mean its street racing but day is appreciated as well, and more garage space as well
3:23 personally I loved nfs most wanted (2012) I played a lot on my ps3 and i was so bad it took me like 5 tries to get the Hyper cars it is probably still my favourite nfs game to date I love it (btw I still haven’t completed it😂) Edit:(I hated rivals because no matter how I played it disc, digital it always crashed and I lost all my data, me and this guy are very different.)
EA disbanded ghost games after they learned how to make a good game instead of shit like NFS 2015. So this is also why Heat was never updated. There's no developers left.
@@squishy_princess NFS is one of those EA games that genuinely has competition. That's why EA I feel wouldn't want to make a NFS game anymore. You'd have to make a perfect racing game EVERY time. You're going up against Forza and GT who have Microsoft and Sony helping them.
@@poko60 But I feel like competition is a good thing for NFS and a tough one at that, because EA now has to actually make an actual good NFS to keep up. It would be sad if EA stopped making it, Heat was the best NFS game I've played in a long time and shows the potential if EA actually tried
Honestly wouldn't put those games in the same category NFS is ARCADE forza and gt are sims. I know forza seems arcade because the open world. But physics and controls are more sim. Not double tap break to drift.
I really loved Heat and I still play it to this day, I felt like the story was a little short lived but fun to go through and the characters were more relatable to am extent compared to 2015 haha Amazing game and I still play it
Heat is a game focused on customization and escape from the police, getting parts, reputation and much more, the story is just a complement But NFS Heat was the best NFS of the decade after almost 2 decades
When I played Rivals, the drifts were always perfect. I loved to see my cars drift so easily across every turn. Even though they kept many cars in DLC, I played the base game and still loved it.
NFS Most Wanted is hands down my favorite need for speed to date. I don’t know it is just because I didn’t play the old games but it was genuinely the most fun I’ve ever had playing a racing game the online speed lists with other people were what really made it so fun for me but ig I could see how from a old NFS player’s perspective how they wouldn’t like it because it broke off of the core gameplay of most of the other games
Yes.. finally someone else loves Rivals, I just don't get the amount of hate this game has, it had its issues but it was fun enough for me to over look those flaws, it's really was a great game.
@@rapidshot3033 yeah, but Ghost did have a bumpy start and eventually smoothed things out which made me hopeful for their success, but EA being EA, shut them down which is saddening. And you know, Criterion games can make great games, but not games for the community
I got Rivals at release, and I was able to play it offline easily, and I RARELY encountered any griefers or hackers. It's easily one of the best in the series.
I'd be playing as a cop, and then all of a sudden there's another cop player continuously taking me down in his car that was way better than mine. That's what frustrated me the most about Rivals. Along with Host Migration when someone would leave. I still liked the game though
Heat is probably the only modern NFS that mimics at least some of the aggression of original Most Wanted, because it’s FAST with good cars and it’s honestly an actual adrenaline rush!
@@prgaming5063 MW (2012) was going to be a good game but they didn't had enough time since EA decided to redo the whole game but yea og NFS needs remaster but not like the Trilogy
tbh most wanted was my favorite for a really long time due to it being free roam, I really enjoyed it, even though there wasn't really a story, it was still good for the time
NFS Heat was actually what I wanted from the NFS franchise for a long period of time, and it did it right on everything. But the only downgrade was that its physics (ik they improved a lot from their previous game's physics but still it had a little bit same kind of brake-to-drift feeling). Other than that everything about this game are very well executed and very well done. I loved it! For me, NFS Heat is absolutely S Tier!

@Eric Christy and yes the map was horrible it was so small and it was always nightime technically the only good thing I can say about 2015 was the Supra which is one of my favorite cars of the nfs series and the drifting was also awful
If project unite remakes it should be better than heat
I thought prestige mode was cool it was definitely challenging. I’d rather play 2015 than Heat. Heat is just boring after story mode and way too easy.

Naaah every single other good racing game lets you buy/earn the car you want…not stumble upon a random car and plus you cant even have the paint option that you like
@@MinosPrimeGaming_56
I didnt even know the game had multiplayer. I though Rivals were the first need for speed game to come up with this multiplayer system.
@@neilnair5388
I never really cared about painting cars. Heat consentrates on car painting too much. Its true that Most Wanted didnt have story or progression system, but atleast bad story didnt ruin the game as it did with Need for Speed 2015 with their cringe ass diverse charchters. To complete Most Wanted you need to get first place in every single kind of race, when only certain cars are accepted for certain races and so it was fun to go looking after to try find all the cars in the map. Some races were more difficult, so you needed to restart it multiple times before getting that 1st place. Polices also were preatty good and intense overall with how they tried to get you and you get a lot of money, if you survived police chase with six stars. Yes I know that progression system might be better, but you got to finish races in your own pace with you being able to choose the race you want personally. I didnt personally stumble upon Lamborghini at start or even know it was there, but that might be then one of the worst aspects of the game being able to get super car so early in the game itself.
I actually enjoyed playing Rivals, especially the progression.
NFS Rivals had potential to be the best NFS since Carbon. But broken B2D physics, 30fps cap on PC, the inability to pause, and the cops chasing you on sight as if you were an outlaw in the wild west made it kinda disappointing. But I enjoyed this game more than any NFS that came after it.
Rivals pursuit OST by Vanessa Lorena is one of the best in the franchise.
As a fan of Black Box NFS games, NFS Rivals has a special place in my heart (Rivals was developed by Ghost and Criterion Games).
Also the open world of NFS Rivals is underappreciated. Ghost Games and Criterion nailed the snow in this game in my opinion.
30fps cap can be unlocked, but the fps is tied to the gameplay, so every time the game drops fps below your desired fps limit, the game will be slowed down. You will need a really strong PC if you want to play this game at 60+ fps.
FYI, weapons like EMP will take half the time (or even less) to hit opponents or you if you choose to unlock 30fps cap.
I also would like to applaud the former ghost games for making it in like 6 months
@@adedhuman9582 I love how Ghost games made a decent but buggy game within a year, then took 2 years to make Payback and we all know how that turned out. However, Payback's pursuit OST by Joseph Trapanese is one of the best in the franchise and deserves more love.
6 month development time for NFS Rivals is a rumour, but it's possible to make an AAA game with over 200 developers and recycled content within 6-12 months, anyone who played MW2012 will recognize the character models of racer and cop drivers in NFS Rivals.

RIP Ghost, we probably would've gotten more substantial updates if they didn't get canceled, but I still enjoy heat to this day.
Glad to see Rivals gettings a good score, i absolutely loved the game and couldn't stop playing it. It's graphics are way ahead of its time and just getting into ridiculously long and large cop chases with friends and sending them flying with ESF's and shockwaves was too much fun
100% Agree with you, I got this game around 2018-2019 and I loved it. I like the progression and ESFs & shockwaves too. The only complaint is online servers when you're just starting out and good racers just kill you. But other than that, it's really fun!

I actually really enjoyed playing Most Wanted 2012 :D
Same. I think the main reason I liked it so much though was because it was a childhood game. It was hard then. Now, after playing sim racing games, becoming a pretty good driver (in games) and being better at games in general makes it not as fun. I do understand most of the stuff Bladed said here, except for the graphics. I feel as the graphics were amazing and still are great now.
same, i still have a couple of the songs saved on my spotify playlist lmao
It's my favourite but rivals definitely gave it a run for its money
The thing i liked the most about it was the soundtrack.
If the game was your first child hood game ever, then welcome to the gang
*Most Wanted*
"Biggest strenght: Nothing"
Well, I mean... the soundtrack is good and, um... the engine sounds too
Update: I recently finished it and yeah, it's not AMAZING, but it's not bad either, I actually had fun finding and upgrading all the cars. Was kinda frustrating at the beginning but then I got used to it and could win the hardest races with ease
Is that what you play these games for? Also i can understand that if there was more because i really looked forward to a MW remaster and got that thing with like 5-10 soundtracks that play on repeat and free cars so that we can play our own nfs version of GTA.
@@JinYo265 I really don't see how most wanted is worse than 2015 or payback. At least it wasn't a buggy mess, tuning card crap or something like that. And Heat A+??? God damn, expectations really arent high for this series, are they? It being an unoptimized hell was reason enough not to play it. It's a joke that Forza Horizon 4 runs smoothly at 4k max settings while heat at high settings is completely struggling. I'd rather play loading screen simulator than anything released after hot pursuit except for most wanted.
@@Brandon0406 get your nostalgia goggles outta here, we don't buy games for graphics (sadly, Forza doesn't care) but heat's gameplay, progression system, customisation and variety is that great
@@זהסודי-ה7מ the gameplay may be not that bad but some systems like losing all of your honestly earned money to the cops or having to drive from one end of the map to another is just plain lazy and stretches the game unnessecarily. Grinding levels for the next mission is stupid too. Especially when the story is crap. Stop praising an average at best game just because is has done some things right. I had more fun with Forza than with all NfS titles I played together. An if I cared about graphics that much, I wouldn't call Horizon 2 the best from the three I've played cause it isn't even available on PC. Again, to hell with EA, greed and rushed games. Either release a good product or nothing. But as long as people like you keep buying everything they throw at you, nothing will change.
Edit: WTF did YT do with my comment? It looks completely f'd up.
@@Brandon0406 As much as I am a Forza fan, I can't help but feel like the quality of the horizon series went downhill from the legendary horizon 1. FH4 is stupidly repetitive and I got burnt out of it really quickly. About NFS heat, It has the same system for the night sessions as NFS rivals, and it gets me really excited (mainly because I know that if I die to cops, it's my fault for either not being good enough, or I made a stupid desicion). In FH4, you get everything handed to you, and that's why I got burnt out. In NFS heat, you don't need to fast travel anywhere (the map really isn't that big, btw), and I discovered most of the map (and most of it's charm) travelling between races. The story is kinda cringe but it got it's appeal and I liked it quite a bit. There's pretty much no sign of EA in this game, aside from the story being a little to short.
I must say that I LOVE the soundtrack of Hot Pursuit. Whenever comes to mind, I always end up with listening to it.
That is a banger

I remember playing this game for hours. The city was big and had many cool places to explore, the pursuits were great.

NFS Heat physics: S
Hol' the fook up...
You can crash into a car head on and do less damage than hitting a wall while going -100 mph.
even the police cant safely land jumps/ramps without wrecking their car, but the player can
totally makes sense
and popping your tires damages the body of your car and does more damage than running into a wall at +200 mph

Rivals and hot pursuit r my 2 fav
I liked Rivals one of my fav nfs games the car list was nice and unique on both racer and cop careers the police was fun to mess around and were intense the final event in Grand Tour is one of my favourite final races in Nfs games
I rent this game for a weekend and liked it, but I would definitely not buy. I played mostly as cop and it did get old fast.
I do love Hot Pursuit first. Then when I saw Rivals, I knew it was a true successor of Hot Pursuit. Sadly, not many people liked it for some reason, since I enjoyed most of it. Then comes Heat. We don't need to say about Heat.
ye i loved rivals to
Most Wanted 2012 was my favorite racing game for a while. I was playing this between the ages of 8-12 fairly regularly and I loved being able to just find and drive the best, fastest cars.
I know it hurt the progression, but I knew that I could easily get the thrill of go fast without the hours of grinding that an 8-12 year old wouldn’t have the attention for.
I found another...
It's an amazing game, just weird progression, but I still love it
I used to also play it, when I was eight and nine in 2012 and 2013.
NFS MW 2012 had the best multiplayer out of all the NFS games. I loved how once the entire lobby picked an event we all had to race to get to the starting point. There was real sense of community instead of just having random players driving by you in the street. Everyone was involved and the different events were great.
You're speaking so much fucking facts bro I played so much multiplayer on that game dude I used to go on like PS party chat and then play that one game where like go all around the map doing different things and challenges she was fun as fuck
Public servers are kinda a pain in the a*s to deal with tho, the only thing players do now-a-days is be tryhard's and take eachother out non-stop, and another thing that sucked: Hennessey, Hennessey, Hennessey, the Venom GT was everywhere, if you drove a Car like an Aventador, you basically lost already, no car had a chance after it got added
i played 2005 in 2015 multiplayer never existed for me
You mean need for speed world had the best multiplayer 😂😂😂

If you wanted to play in a single player mode, you couldn't, but any game is more fun with people. EA probably never intended it to be single player but now pretty much nobody plays it...
The run legit felt like I was playing a movie, it was super cinematic and had a nice story and good music choices, honestly I could care less if the game barely last 2 hours or so, it gave a unique experience i wish more nfs games had.
I remember the challenge races it had too. Those were tough!
To me, heat had a similar movie like feeling to it. Just racing down the street with your friends when the police come in and chase you feels like something out of fast and furious. I like it when racing games have the kind of feeling that they could be made into movies!
Too bad its not on Steam like all the other NFS games.
Tbh all the nfs game are super cinematic
Yes. And the online racing was fun too
This is a very controversial take but Most Wanted 2012 is my favorite NFS of all time if I'm being honest. I played the game so much when it came out and I love the soundtrack. Also one of the first games I played that had the Agera R.
Most Wanted 2012's visuals were also phenomenal, the way the game looked felt so fitting for the game and the cut scenes when you started races were so mesmerizing. It felt like you were on drugs, especially with the black, white, and red color scheme.
The police chases in the game were also really fun for me. Building up the highest score I could, making cops follow me into a jump, or smashing into road blocks was a blast for me.
I know people thought unlocking cars by finding them was really bad but I really enjoyed it. I have a short attention span when it comes to singleplayer games and having to search for cars gave me an incentive to explore the map, nothing was more fun for me than accidentally stumbling upon a super car.
The game will stay a top five NFS in my heart at least :)
Same
same bro
The map was nice too
I don't think that's a rare take at all. I think the lack of customization hurt it 4 some.I love HP & Rivals also
It was fun af. I had it on Xbox 360 and played the hell of it.
I remember I used to play NFS most wanted with my dad almost everyday. He was even on the leaderboard at one point. Thank you for including it as it brought back many childhood memories

The old Need for Speed Most Wanted was different in a good way of course. The newer 2012 Need for Speed Most wanted was just too generous by just giving away cars for you to find and drive for free except for the ones on the wanted list like the Aventador for example.

Most Wanted 2012 holds a special place in my heart for many reasons. So I still enjoy it quite a bit
Bruh, I love that game.
Everyone liked that.
Iam one of the few that dint enjoy as much as a lot of the community did and is because i wanted it to be like the OG 2005 but still iam happy that a lot of people had fun with the game overall i just wish it would've been like 2005. Personally i would buy it just as a collection for Racing games
fr, one of my favorites
Exactly it was my first need for speed game I played it on my PS Vita that I begged for from my parents it was such an incredible experience bro fucking love that game to death

Thank you 👍
Lol.
NFS 2015 was one of my favorite games.
I love the "just sit down and watch a funny story in a racing game".
I did so many drift miles in the mountains in this game and went in for hours.
Probably even my most played NFS game after most wanted and Underground 1
Good video, though I respectfully disagree and think you’re super wrong in regards to MW2012. 2015 was NOT a better and more fun experience than MW2012. I just think 2012 was a great Burnout Paradise sequel, especially with the way the multiplayer was set up, and the physics were on par with HP2010 imo. The progression sucked, but the game was still way more enjoyable than 2015 to me. Also the city definitely isn’t “reused from The Run” lol, that point made zero sense. If anything the map is just Paradise City version 2.0.
Based take regarding Rivals though, that game is overhated and definitely better than 2015 but totally not a better version of HP2010, it had a ton of bugs and the physics were extremely glitchy at times. HP2010 was perfect and super polished!
MW2012 has that weightless handling because weight reduction bro
Most Wanted 2012 was underrated in the actual gameplay and soundtrack. I loved the graphics and gameplay, and the car engine sounds are astoundingly amazing. Best sound design yet.
I actually enjoyed MW2012 so much, it even got my friends who aren't car nerds and NFS fans to play even during lunch breaks at school lmao. The game isn't about the story, but its more of the fast paced and arcade like experience, the game you go to just to relieve your stress quick lol.
Yeah, and although I am sure nostalgia and Hype played into factor in regards to my opinion, NFSMW2012 was really interesting, and overall a good time. The vibe was just really bright, colorful and fun. Although the progression overall made the game worse, it was a really interesting idea and made me more appreciate the cars for their uniqueness and less so performance, because you could get some of the best cars right away. Although it was less traditional as a NFS game, it was pretty bold in its ideas and had a really fun and positive vibe, with the occasional artistic twist.
What would’ve made mw2012 a good game is if it had a different name and a little bit harder progression system
I’m not even gonna lie I still play need for speed payback I’ve replayed it probably 20 times but I still enjoy it
You'd like Heat, it has all the best things about payback plus a much better map and a better car selection

Same
Not to mention the soundtrack
@@squidwardtortalini160 I loved it plus I had downloaded music I could listen to
Somehow this game managed to be a terrible need for speed game, but at the same time just be a fun little racing game. i played a little bit and didnt take it too serious, and i had a lot of fun as long as i didnt think about how terrible some of those mechanics are for a full size game. If you think of it as a 20$/€ game instead of a 60 game its fine. i mean you literally get money for getting caught by the police
Agreed
One major problem with the current NFS franchise: *BRAKE TO DRIFT* ; oh why does it even exist.
And also the fact that Blackbox got cancelled
No Limits players: *crying in swipe down to drift*
I've been seeing this complaint a lot, especially regarding the leaked footage of NFS 2021. I just want to know why people dont like it?
honestly heat allowed you to have a choice between brake to drift or gas to drift and I loved that.
@@mateominiati5256 Brake to drift is fine...its just the NFS games since NFS 2016 have made drifting and afterthought. It just doesn't feel good at all. It feels great in Hot Pursuit. All they'd have to do is copy paste.
@@UnBR0k3enAngel Alright thanks. I was wondering because Rivals had Brake to drift, and was hell of fun. They completely botched all handling in 2015, and they have been slowly coming back with payback and heat
I feel like MW12s physics were super addicting. Definitely a step up from that of HP10's. You can hardly go airborne in HP, and the physics felt more scripted and restrictive in that game than MW12, where you can literally jump 400+ meters given you know how to do that. You also forgor to mention the sounds in that game. Hands down, best engine sounds to date
hp was the best sounding cars g
Just play the android/ios bersion of mw2012 and even that is better than the pc/console bersion
Playing COD BO Cold War _no_
Watching Bladed Angel _yes_
Made me laugh

Playing most wanted 2012 in 2021, upscaling the game to 1440p and using mods, this is one of the best looking need for speed games to ever be released. It's very clean graphically and Lacks a lot of the graphical clutter the new games have, the soundtrack is also spectacular, and the r&d put into car exhaust noises really speaks to how well put together need for speed most wanted 2012 was. I agree the progression system is garbage but the map design is great and the car list is as well.
My childhood game, underground and most wanted fanboys really buried it in the dirt.
I never bought 2012 at full price. I always thought it was worth the money. Idk what it is about it, but I just enjoyed the simplicity and driving experience. If you take the fact that it's supposed to be a NFS game, but rebrand it. I think it would have done much better.
@@samprentice1178 like nfs high stakes!
2012 was fun, with the cars and map balanced so that my in my Tesla could win every race possible. A good time.
My main problem with it was that after getting through all the MW races, the game just got boring and stale.
Did any one remember need for speed carbon? That game will always be my favorite game on Xbox 360. The territories and the customization of the cars and your crew was so cool to me. The boss races were downhill mountain passes and it always reminded me of an old anime called initial d
Yup, a childhood favourite of mine too.
Carbon, underground 2, and the original most wanted are my favorite arcade racing games.
most wanted is the best
Yeah, but this video was talking about "modern" NFS though.
And to educate some people who think that MW 2005 & Carbon was the last good NFS series, but not even trying the modern NFS series
Carbon is still tied with UG2 as my favorite NFS games. Heat is #3 (never played og MW). The utilization of crews in Carbon was S-tier for sure, and the territory takeover was engaging. Customization was a step below UG2 imo, but it was still great. My biggest gripe with Heat honestly is that the whole "crew" storyline was pointless. I wish we could have our "crew" actually be in the night races with us, and provide help like they did in Carbon.
My favourite game is the Most Wanted 2012 due to graphics and the cars. I have played the 2005 too, but I just love 2012 so much
Am I the only person that loved the hell out of Most Wanted 2012?
Nope
@Dead Account Good to know, it was one of my first need for speeds and I remember enjoying all of it
Dude when it came out I played nothing but it for a straight year. And I’ve grown up with NFS since Hot Pursuit 2 on the windows computer lol. But yeah I played the shit out of it I think I got to know Fairhaven better than my own city XD and I have no idea why I loved that game so so much
i loved it too haha
Nope I'm with you. It was hella fun
Yes, I loved Rivals, glad you rated it well :)

The only thing rivals and future need for speed titles need to improve is the camera angles of the cars. I need to see the road better in order to drive my car perfectly
Rivals was the worst for me lol
Same
Most wanted 2012 is one of my favourite games. I understand it has no story really and shouldn’t be titled “Most Wanted”. However, the game imo has a perfect ratio of freedom and goals. I love just driving around listening to the amazing car sounds in that game, appreciate a 360 game that still looks good, get a rush if I drive for ages without crashing, and all the time I’d enjoy the little bits of progress that didn’t force you to not feel free. (Eg I loved trying to break all the gates)
Yes. Can't forget the soundtrack.
Yes if one has never played the og MW then ya
@@aadityarohit3331 I've played the og MW and loved both!
MW2012 was fun to drive around in. The actual gameplay alone was fun. And god, the Online Speedlists? Those were the most fun I've ever had in a NFS game! Also - my gosh the soundtrack!
One of my favourite games, pure fun
Huh, 2015 is one of the best stylistic entries. The atmosphere of emptiness, forgetability and melancholy was hitting home
He sounds so happy when it got to nfs heat, it made me think about getting the game
Good game but ea cut the support so fast
Bro get it. I gave it a chance and now I'm addicted. I can't stop playing it. It made me want to get every single car and customize them how I want. I have 60+ cars and they're all carefully crafted. It's so much fun man, especially once you get really good at it and start smoking everyone online lol.
dude i downloaded it and was addicted from start to finish. literally my only issue with it was the cringy cheesey lines the characters would say. everything else was perfect. especially the customization. the customization is fucking crazy
Best need for speed since black box hands down. I set every car to grip and they handled perfectly, was completely blown away about finally being able to turn and not super drift everywhere lol sadly it'll probably go down hill since EA gave the game back to Criterion (the studio that almost killed the franchise). Only hope is that some of the devs from Heat can help make more racing games going forward. Heat is the Underground 2 of these days.

NFS most wanted was the game that got me into racing games , i was really young when i played it so it was really cool to me getting to drive all these cool cars and as a 8 year old kid the progression was pretty fun, you got to race someone in a better car than you and if you won, you kept it. so for that it will always be S tier

2012 was rushed thats why the gameplay sucks but the car sounds were still great like the Lfa

Exactly. I dont know about others, but I loved the immense amount of freedom in the game. Chase Race or Explore. And i loved exploring.

I'm currently replaying NFS 2015 and I know everyone craps on it for valid reasons but to me the featuring of Nakai-San, Magnus Walker & most importantly Ken Block (may he rest in peace) was insane for a young car enthusiast like me back in 2015. It was also at the same time I got my first gaming PC so I was all in. It certainly has its flaws but once the story is over the game is fun, and the graphics were very beautiful Dice really made a beautiful game.
I also wanna add that while I have more than 1000 hours in heat, the graphics are atrocious during the day and the optimization on PC is horrible.
I have Nfs 2015 but I can’t grapple it’s concept I think when ghost Studios took over most of nfs we entered the dark ages but some of them were decent
I’m gonna keep this short and sweet, nfs most wanted 2012 was the 1st ever “car game” I ever had so therefore it will always hold a special place in my heart. Yes, there was practically no storyline, progression system, or challenge. But that’s what sparked my interest in cars, I was practically given every car and therefore I could familiarize my self with each car. I don’t disagree with your ranking whatsoever in fact I mostly agree but this game was great for a newbie into the car community and is what gave me my Interest into the world of cars. Now I’m 20 and I own a Subaru WRX STI (no I don’t vape) and the game inspired me into the person I am today..... Japanese imports for life....... bitch 😂

This is the nfs with the best car sounds and the best online in NFS history, but most people didn't even bother to try it.
Did you play on ps3???
Nice to see Rivals getting the credit it deserves! The game was bugged as hell, had a lot of flaws, I didn't like the faction specific car list and I also didn't like a few other bits, but may I say I really enjoyed the hell out of that game when I played it back in 2014! A lot of fun, the races were exciting, the cop chases were fantastic, the map was stunning, the soundtrack too was amazing. I wish for them to make a Rivals 2 and fix all the issues the original game had. That would be my idea of NFS getting back to form.
"Every modern NFS Game has a weakness or "sacrifice". but heat didn't"
Horrific Drifting physics want to know your location

No customization, short story, mandatory linear story, few cars
@@user-ju1li5jw4h the run more like the light jog
Yeah i agree with you, ppl who said the run is trash, they should beat the game first, and they will know it a nice game
Even the story is short, but it has some challenging races, nice musics, physics is challenging too!
So it's a nice game for ppl who like challenges
The run was unfinished and not the devs' fault but it was still so unique and the handling is honestly one of the best handling ever in any nfs game. One of the most realistic for a nfs. The sounds were also amazing and just the overall concept. If blackbox was just given enough time to finish and not rushed, it would've been a masterpiece. Insufficient and improperly placed gas stations, reused tracks, lack of customization, short story. It had its flaws but it's still in my top 5 for nfs games nonetheless. I'd say my top 5 is: MW 2005, underground 2, carbon, rivals and nfs the run.
Yeah but could have been longer though, there was supposed to be a sequel but the game never went through

Most wanted hit me hard bro, I grew up with that and I loved it. The ideal of being able to just find a car was super interesting to me. I guess that was 7-8 year old me, but I idolized it.

NFS Hot Pursuit was godly. It was everyone's dream to have that kind of Cops vs Racers game, also the multiplayer mode was sick when it came to Cops vs Racers. It was actually somewhat competitive.
I have a love and hate relationship with 2015.

Just bought it on sale and hell yeah I love it. Especially with a wheel, it's very, very good. Definitely the best NFS in a long time for me.
EA disbanded ghost games after they learned how to make a good game instead of shit like NFS 2015. So this is also why Heat was never updated. There's no developers left.
@@squishy_princess NFS is one of those EA games that genuinely has competition. That's why EA I feel wouldn't want to make a NFS game anymore. You'd have to make a perfect racing game EVERY time. You're going up against Forza and GT who have Microsoft and Sony helping them.
@@poko60 But I feel like competition is a good thing for NFS and a tough one at that, because EA now has to actually make an actual good NFS to keep up. It would be sad if EA stopped making it, Heat was the best NFS game I've played in a long time and shows the potential if EA actually tried
Honestly wouldn't put those games in the same category NFS is ARCADE forza and gt are sims. I know forza seems arcade because the open world. But physics and controls are more sim. Not double tap break to drift.
I really loved Heat and I still play it to this day, I felt like the story was a little short lived but fun to go through and the characters were more relatable to am extent compared to 2015 haha
Amazing game and I still play it
The last nfs game i played was rivals when I was in high school. Honestly fun racing are very rare.
Heats story was very short and I was honestly disappointed towards the end because I just wanted more lol
Heat is a game focused on customization and escape from the police, getting parts, reputation and much more, the story is just a complement
But NFS Heat was the best NFS of the decade after almost 2 decades
I just beat the game, sadly my wish to be Ana’s bf didn’t come true… my disappointment is immeasurable
However it eas almost more than 40 minutes
When I played Rivals, the drifts were always perfect. I loved to see my cars drift so easily across every turn. Even though they kept many cars in DLC, I played the base game and still loved it.
NFS Most Wanted is hands down my favorite need for speed to date. I don’t know it is just because I didn’t play the old games but it was genuinely the most fun I’ve ever had playing a racing game the online speed lists with other people were what really made it so fun for me but ig I could see how from a old NFS player’s perspective how they wouldn’t like it because it broke off of the core gameplay of most of the other games
Hope you play Most Wanted 2005
Yes.. finally someone else loves Rivals, I just don't get the amount of hate this game has, it had its issues but it was fun enough for me to over look those flaws, it's really was a great game.

Heat is probably the only modern NFS that mimics at least some of the aggression of original Most Wanted, because it’s FAST with good cars and it’s honestly an actual adrenaline rush!

NFS Heat was actually what I wanted from the NFS franchise for a long period of time, and it did it right on everything. But the only downgrade was that its physics (ik they improved a lot from their previous game's physics but still it had a little bit same kind of brake-to-drift feeling). Other than that everything about this game are very well executed and very well done. I loved it!
For me, NFS Heat is absolutely S Tier!
It needs more cars though like the charger cops already use it so why not let us
