NFS has always been meh to me as well. I havn't bought one since 1998's Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit. With that being said, My worry strives towards that since it appears that every racing game now-a-days seems to be striving for the exact same thing. Realism and Graphics. It's becoming excessively hard to determine the difference between some of the mainstream racing games that well, do this. Grand Torismo, Forza, GRID, Project Gotham Racing.

(I apologize in advance if I wrongly accuse one or more games, I havn't played all these games. But it feels although they are the one's who strive for realism).

Now, when every game becomes the same. What's left for us? Where has the competition taken us? Why should I bother buying GT5. When Forza 2 is going to be literally, exactly the same with maybe different tracks.

That's my beef really. Mario Kart has always done it right, Double Dash added a second racer. The addition of that, innovated the game and made it more fun, Mario Kart Wii added the Wii wheel and changed the way you handled your vehicle. They've always changed things, and thus made it fun.

 

 

Some people play racing games for fun while other people play them for the experience.

A realistic enviornment and physics lead to better gameplay experience.
