Gave the demo a try for Need for Speed: Most Wanted – A Criterion Game a try. Have not been a fan of the Need for Speed games for years. But now that Criterion has taken over the franchise it has to help. Enjoyed the demo very much. It was the most exciting demo I have very tired. All the cars, the environments, sound track and the announcers voice pull you in. But after a new minutes it looks all very familiar. If you have played Burnout Paradise it is pretty much the same. Of course with a new coat of paint and tweaks. This is not a bad thing since that game was awesome. I am pretty sure if it didn’t have the Need for Speed title it would have been called Burnout Paradise 2 or something like that. Strongly thinking about picking this up at some point. Highly recommend giving the demo a try.

Posted in Just something to say with tags Criterion Games, Hot Pursuit, Hot Pursuit Demo, Need For Speed, Need for Speed demo, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Demo on October 27, 2010 by getbent57 Gave the demo a try for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. This brings back what NFS was like back then they first started coming out with these games. Well of course it is updated. This one was made buy Criterion Games. The same people that made of of my favourite games, Burnout Paradise.
Going to come out and say it. The demo is a bit of a let down. Will get the good things out of the way first. The game looks awesome. The cars look awesome. I like how they give some background on the car you pick. Plus the lady that reads it to you is nice. Now for the “bad”. They give you to races to pick from. Which is pretty standard for a demo. Here is the kicker you can only play one of them. The other is unlocked when some one on your friends list plays the game. Well that’s great if you have someone on your list that as played it. The other let down is what I call “racing game wall riding”. If you have every played a racing game you know what that is. It is when you try to make a turn and end up riding the wall or edge of the track. When you try to stop it you end up crashing into the other wall on the other side. Ping pong back and forth until you crash and the end of in last place. I am sure with practise I will get better. But with only one race to pick and two cars I can’t see myself getting much practise in.
The game will be out November 16, 2010.
