Need for Speed
Need for Speed used to be the pinnacle of car customization and that arcadey- style racing that players just loved. Alas, in recent years it went the way of horrific live-action cutscenes, half-baked customization options, and empty, boring open-worlds leaving fans to look elsewhere for their fix of fast cars and rebellious racing.
In the case of Need for Speed, it’s not like Ghost Games has to reinvent the wheel. The core racing experience doesn’t need to have a bunch of fancy bells and whistles on it. Instead, Need for Speed needs to go back to its roots and recapture the magic of the likes of Need for Speed Underground and its sequel.
Give us a city that’s actually interesting to drive around in, filled with other drivers and interesting events to take part in and sights to see. A plethora of customization options is, of course, a must, and top it all off with a story and cutscenes that don’t make us want to claw our eyes out. It’d certainly be worth the wait if Ghost Games could crack it.
