No Customization In Need For Speed: The Run 'Not What It Is About'

TGH Writes: "We recently got some time to sit down with Need For Speed: The Run with the producer Alex Grimbley and asked him a few questions regarding the new direction of the title and if it will have any elements of older titles in the franchise. One pertaining to customization which has reared its head in a few Need For Speed titles. We weren’t entirely surprised with his answer but some fans might be disappointed."

Pretty excited to try this game although I won't get it at launch to much other games I want.

If anyone still missing old good arcade racing , get and play NFS : HP2 PS2 edition , I am damn still playing this game ; it is full of action and challenge and hardcore soundtrack . I said that ps2 edition because pc version is made by different developer . the PS2 edition has harder tracks with diversitied turns . EA should update Hot Pursuit 2 with HD graphics and release immediately , believe me it will sell like cakes .

[lpfisher]

Makes sense, I guess

BOOOOO!!! I thought we would finally get a underground 2 like game after the crap nfs titles lately(shift 1 & 2, undercover, carbon, pro street and HP). Most Wanted was the last good nfs to be released. HP(2010) was the worst nfs to be released ever(sold my game after 2 races). This nfs WILL fail and give a bad name to the Frostebite 2 engine. I will wait for Underground 3, until then RIP Need for Speed.

NFS Underground 3 plz.....I luv Underground 2

[Psychotica]

That's because in this game many times you just sit there and watch until it tells you to press a button...how exciting.

Does anyone esle think a proper HD remake of NFS:Hot Pursuit 2 would be amazing? My fave racing game.

I know HP came out last year, and although good, it was far from a faithful recreation of the original Hot Pursuits!

[chadachada123]

Welp. That killed my chances of buying this game. Quite a shame.

What I want is the latest HP but WITH full customization like from Underground 1/2 and Most Wanted. What I don't want is HP with a bunch of quicktime events.

The racing in Hot Pursuit was near-perfect. Very fast, very fun. Now it just needs a lot of customization.

[mafiahajeri]

wow was excited for this but no customization no buy. And dont say that its not vital for a racing game.

[jacksonmichael]

This reminds me of a comment I saw on that article about Ganon not being in Skyward Sword... They said "No Ganon, no buy." Just like that situation... It really isn't vital.

[mafiahajeri]

Ok maybe not but Im sick of raceing games not adding customization and I just love desiging my car with vinyls etc. and wings, rims etc. its vital for me to enjoy the game.

[I_C_PEE]

I wana take a dump in an envelope and mail it to EA. Thats wot i think of the NFS series.

[renegade]

This game is like a roller coaster going up slowly and down it goes fast.

No Customization = No Buy

[hilyou]

i think da run will never be able 2 beat nfs hot pursuit from last year EVER! da best nfses r all da hot pursits, most wanted, shift 1 and 2, and carbon.

[BornToKill]

BRING UNDERGROUND BACK!

[HK6]

NFS: Underground 3 would be very much appreciated.

[Eiffel]

I still remember playing the first with my brother, that was a real brother bonding game, loved the soundtrack too. Every time I'd start it up, "Get Low" Lil John & The Eastside Boyz‏ would be blasting through the surround sound. Loved it.

[BornToKill]

yeah man 24s by T.I too. great offline multiplayer game

[AngelicIceDiamond]

Oh boy they dug themselves a hole with this one, oh well, I'll be too concerned with SkyRim, BF3 and Mw3 and DeadIsland. So no NeedForSpeed for me.
