EDGE - Need For Speed: The Run review

The notion that playing games is a waste of your time is nonsense, of course, but unfortunately 
Need For Speed: The Run lets the side down. 
Stuffed with a procession of long-winded loading sequences, protracted menu flipping and unskippable cutscenes, it often feels like there’s as much watching 
as there is playing. Time wasted, in other words.

Looool! Well deserved for releasing 3 NFS games in the space of 12 months.

DJMarty4944d ago

Edge reviewers are total morons

NFS: The Run is easily a 8/10

brettyd4944d ago

id give it a 6-7 personally.

ColinZeal4944d ago

I give the game 9/10 for the arcady fun racing. This with a G27. I just wish EA had the balls to scrap the horrible cutscenes and the QT-events. I wanted less of those, more of the driviing. Really enjoying the driving here.

Severly underrated game here.

Only thing i hate about this game are load times

pucpop4944d ago

This game is jobbies. Hot Pursuit is amazing.

Most wanted 2012 imo was awful, on PS3 the graphics are dreadful, and the crash cam was very annoying. Rival is the worst imo, hated that game. My favourite is Hot Pursuit, great game. Also Shift 1&2 are really good.

OnlyThoseOnTheFence2142d ago

High Stakes will always be my favorite. Great cars, great music, and you could see through the windows which was pretty mind-blowing at the time. Best of all it was ricer-free.

steven83r2141d ago

Lame. The list doesn't even include any of the originals. NFS 1 and NFS hot Pursuit 1998. Must be a youngster who created the list.

CYALTR2141d ago

He clearly stated that being this was an Xbox centered site he was going to limit his list to games that released on some form of Xbox. He also stated he had been playing them since OG PLaystation, so pretty sure he's not a "youngster"

From my personal experience NFS I personally don't like.......
The Worst : Underground 2 , Carbon, Prostreets, Undercover, Porche unleashed, Nitro, NFS World, 2012 Mostwanted, Rivals, 2015 Reboot last but not least Paycrap.
Best NFS I personally like :
All ps1 NFS : HighStakes (the best) including NFS 3 Hotpursuit , ps2 Hotpursuit 2 (Excellent game ) ..Underground ( Best so far)
2005 Mostwanted ( Excellent game) Shift 1/2 (Spectacular) remind me of GT , 2010 Hotpursuit Great game but race Waaaaaaay to long in my personal opinion . Last but not least The Run . these are my favorite NFS titles .
After The Run in my personal opinion NFS went down hill fast with Open world mapping crap, always online, multiplayer crap, alldrive, drifting in every freaking corners, no gripping anymore,autolog. None of this crapfest is NFS original formula. until Ea contract Ghost Games to return the original formula back in NFS it will always be Shitty game.

Plenty of them that does VO for video games and animated films like batman movies.

GigawattConduit3373d ago

Huh, didn't know Steve Carrell did video games. That feels just so weird. Already knew Magneto was in Fable 3, but it took me a while to place him.
