Interesting! This might be something I'd be interested in, as the hardcore simulations are too much for me. I'm a casual racer, I suppose.

Abriael5137d ago

It's actually really fun even for an usually hardcore simulation racer like myself. While being arcade-ish is nowhere easy. It actually requires quite some lightning-fast reflexes

I used to like NFS alot, but it went abit crap, if this game is anything like Underground it should be amazing =]

NaiNaiNai5136d ago

underground *both* and undercover were the worst in the entire series.

Shift, Pro street, Most wanted, Hot pursuit, carbon, all great games.

steve30x5136d ago (Edited 5136d ago )

Its not bad. Its more like NFS Most wanted only online. The map you play is a mix between NFS most wanted and NFS Underground 2. Also you cant modify the car like almost all recent NFS games. You can just add Vinyls and Paint the car.

Abriael5136d ago

They already said that car morphing is not yet implemented in the beta, but will be.

I always meant to check out Battlefield Heroes, but I always ended up turning back to Team Fortress 2. I guess I'm not the only one.

camel_toad3307d ago

Yeh as far ad f2p goes the only ones I ever find myself going back to are Team Fortress 2 and Robocraft. Grow tired too quickly of everything else.

mikeslemonade3306d ago

Good news, free-to-play is bad for gamers.

HammadTheBeast3307d ago

It was hugely Pay-to-win from the little I played of it.

dirkdady3307d ago

This marks the end of f2plays ya'alls.

saladthieves3306d ago

Just simply means EA's cash flow isn't flowing as much as they wanted. This works for sequels but can ruin certain games permanently!

I have a friend who recently picked up a PS3 (for the first time) with a bunch of games, one of them being Lord of the Rings Conquest (EA title). She was disappointed to discover that MP in Conquest doesn't work at all. Turns out the servers shut down a long time ago and as a result, MP is completely crippled on consoles (except on PC, via Tunngle).

saladthieves3306d ago

I'd say the same. I went as far as to get ready/sign up but never got around to actually playing it.

BF heros was garbage and nothing like battlefield.

NfS World closing is actually pretty surprising to me.

TXIDarkAvenger3307d ago

It actually wasn't bad for a free to play game. Probably one of the best f2p racing games I've ever played.

ocelot073307d ago

From what I heard there was a lot of cheating going on. Maybe there shutting it down due to this?

Kran3307d ago

Such a good feeling to know a game I'm still playing 3 and a half years later is still making enough money to keep going for many years yet :)

DxTrixterz3307d ago

No not Fifa World. I was enjoying it more than Fifa 15 .

Brooklynbully1233307d ago

This is one company that I wish would be gone

StrayaKNT3307d ago

Or you can just not purchase their games lol? leave it all for us to enjoy

MasterCornholio3307d ago (Edited 3307d ago )

I dont wish that they were gone but in against many of their practices. Like what they did with BF4 for example or what they did with Hardline.

Just because EA gave me Plant Vs Zombies for free I still am able to disagree with them.
