Nfs Most Wanted Remastered
Floriana Monterroza
I seriously think EA should start considering remastering games because everyone is realising that the new need for speed games are getting really bad we need our old school fun games to be recreated with no changes exept putting in an online feature to play with your friends. I really think that the old 2005 NFS Most Wanted is the best NFS game out there and if that game was remastered to the way it was people might actually start playing again and add an online feature so when you dont want to beat the blacklist you can just play with some friends some online races together am I right or wrong What do you think?
Actually some players on here have made it quite obvious a game they want remastered. They want NFS World back. Personally I can get the same thing world had basically if I just play NFS 2015. But anyone who wants to can fill me in on what I forgot about World, that makes everyone wish it was remastered and brought back.
I'd buy the 1st version of NFS Most Wanted if it was brought back. I never tried that new version. I'd buy both Undergrounds if they were brought back. The 1st Underground would be nice if it was a big open world like the current games.
As far as the new games go. I didn't like Rivals because it didn't even feel like a NFS game. Same with The Run. I didn't bother trying to finish Rivals and once I beat the story for The Run i traded it in.
As much as I loved MW'05 I would probably pass on a remaster. UNLESS they updated the car list with the latest cars and revamped the customization system to be like Payback. I'm fine with them keeping the map, gameplay, and story, but since I've already played it, what's the point?
I would like a new most wanted instead of remastering the 2005 versions they could go a different route and make it a sequel to payback. have the main characters from payback work their way up a blacklist to beat the collector in the number 1 spot.
although this would not work very well with three characters. so if it were to be a sequel have tyler be the one to progress up and have Jess and Mac as help/lifeline or leave Mac out and have Jess be a cop in the game.
Ugh, why does everybody want the characters from Payback to return? They're awful. Tyler is just a Paul Walker knock-off that was mathematically perfected to be as dull as possible, Jess's entire character design pretty much screams "I was created by a feminist!" and Mac... well Mac is ok but that's only in contrast with the other two. The story is just a mixed bag of unnecessary drama, illogical behavior and cartoony villains.
In a recent poll of games that players want to see remastered in the current console generation, 2003's classic The Simpsons: Hit & Run takes the top spot. Fox's long-running animated family sitcom has been the subject of many video games throughout its many years on the air, ranging from old-school arcade beat-em-ups to a guest appearance in Lego Dimensions.
According to a recent study conducted by GAME, The Simpsons: Hit & Run was the title Twitter users most wanted to see remastered in the current console generation, beating out over 15 classics like Bully,Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, Red Dead Redemption, Tony Hawk Skater Pro and the original Metal Gear Solid. Hit & Run took home over 44% of the vote that was conducted over five days, with GTA San Andreas coming into second place with 24%.
The twist here is that Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit lets you see what life is like on both sides of the fast/fuzz divide. Some missions obviously have you taking part in races, hurtling through country and city roads at obscene speeds while trying to avoid being taken down by the cops. Other missions, however, hand you a badge and a gun (okay, maybe not the gun) and put you in the law-loving boots of an SCPD cop, with your aim now being to break up any races you see and take down as many punks as you can.
Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered teleports players back to more innocent times a decade ago, when simply taking on a series of races was considered enough to keep players entertained. Many would argue its simplicity is a strength, however, and the reality is that despite the lack of depth it's still a hugely entertaining time whether you're playing as a racer or a cop. If you struggle to stay afloat with all the faffing around in modern games, this old-school dose of straightforward racing goodness is your life jacket.
This seems to be a long standing thing with Nintendo based on the incorrect assumption Mario Kart leaves a long shadow. The GameCube missed out on Burnout 3, the Wii had what, Excitetruck? And the WiiU was the WiiU.
I would love a new Linear Ridge Racer game, just bung every car and track possible and then sub title it, Ridge Racer Lineage insta hit for the 30 pluses. I will keep my eyes on a sale for Hot pursuit, nearly got it but I have spent too much this month with new games etc.
Great game really, ^^ however, far, very far from being very good like the classics (1994 - 2002 for me), yes, the classics lacked things (limitations in its time), but the option of quick races and modifiable races to the player's taste (choose your car and tracks without limitations, choose rivals, with or without civil traffic, with or without police and choose the game modes), customize the tracks / circuits (day, night, rain, in reverse, in mirror and all this mix); that and more, they gave more useful life to these games!!
Now it is simply to finish them and play only online ...
Only thing that annoyed me slightly is that when my copy turned up it's got one of those 'internet download required' warnings that wasn't pictured on Amazon or any of the promos I saw. Only 2gb so could be worse. Still annoying though.
I wanted to grab this on day one, but upon feasting my eyes upon the cover, it was an immediate pass. Considering that the game would have required a 16GB cartridge at most (and the fact that storage costs should be a hell of a lot cheaper now than they were over 3 1/2 years ago), this is a shameful showing from EA.
Play this over the weekend, love it very much along with Burnout 3 Paradise. I hope these remastered opens up interest for more driving games on the Switch especially Namco and their Ridge Racer series. Now if only Sega means business again and give us a Daytona USA, Crazy Taxi, Scud Race, OutRun, and/or Sega Rally remaster I would jump for joy.
if it wasnt for the price the devloper and fact i already own it and paid about 5 bucks yearssssssssssssssssssssssssssss ago. i might jump on it. but its prettey okayish burnout paradise is the better of the two
"At the risk of sounding like an old person, these days you have to put up with timed seasons, season passes (which are different things, obviously), customisation loot boxes, weekend XP boosts, pre-order DLC and 60-hour story modes where you have to explore every inch of a comically enormous world map in search of arbitrary collectables"
I wish we could get the WiiUs Most Wanted to come over, I think it is better than these, though I'll probably pick up Hot Pursuit once it drops low enough in price (which it will...you just have to wait, and after waiting 10 years for the game, what's 10 more months?)
I deeply loved games like Underground, with the open world cop showdowns, BUT EA is notorious for not giving nintendo players what they want, and then using it as an excuse to avoid nintendo for years on end.
So, I'll buy Hot Pursuit in hopes that EA sees a Need For Speed market here.
@Realness Heh I can relate on the terrible sound track, I don't have hot pursuit, but I did buy heat when it was on sale a few weeks before this released. That soundtrack is pure trash, normally I can tolerate the tracks in most games, but in heat it's hard to even navigate the stations for some reason you'll wind up listening to the same 3 songs and most of them sound like electronica and dubstep. I know it's a pipedream to expect similar now, but vice city still has one of the best selections of music in it
This game I really enjoyed playing a lot back in the day on PS3. The only thing I really hated about it was the lack of split screen. A racing game without split screen.. come on. For single player fun or online play it was a great game and I loved the drifting mechanics in this game!
I'm surprised this game seems to be getting universally good reviews. I thought the initial sentiment was that the 2010 Hot Pursuit wasn't good and they wished they were remastered the original series.
The one thing I learned from reading this review is that companies really need to push the fact that their games are cross-platform more heavily. Had I not read your review I wouldn't know that and this game would be a never gonna get it... Now it's on my watchlist with a borderline hard buy at full price.
@tourjeff Yeah, even using a regular visa card (not fee free) it worked out at a whisker over 20 including delivery. I ordered mine earlier in the week and apparently it should be out for delivery tomorrow.
@Silly_G Apparently, the 2GB mandatory download is only the online multiplayer portion of the game, and the game can be launched and played without the download. Someone asked the question a few days ago on Reddit.
I only made an excuse for DOOM 2016 back in the day because it was freaking DOOM, and while I loved the game, I won't buy DOOM Eternal on Switch unless the game is on cartridge, though I'm content with waiting for the price of the PC version to drop as DOOM 2016 wasn't ideal for handheld play anyway (mainly due to the relatively long load times).
And if there are any bug fixes in future patches, then you would still have to download the bulk of it anyway (and speaking of DOOM 2016, they introduced bug fixes, gyro aiming and the like in later updates).
As I have repeated on other occasions, I really would like them to do a remaster or remake of the classic NFS (1994-2002); and the reasons, which I have already said on occasions, here I mention them again and emphasize:
