    Just Finished NFS: Rivals - Think it's a good game which could have been great!

    Just finished NFS:Rivals this weekend and I have to say, the game was a mixed bag, but I was sorry half the time that it couldn't be as good as it could have been.

    The graphics were great, the world design was pretty good with varied tracks, the car selection wasn't bad, OST was awesome, the cars drove well, the pursuit tech and powerups were a nice touch, yet the game wasn't as gripping as it should have been.

    I think it was because of the lack of a real challenge in the campaign mode (multiplayer was fun). I also hated how we can't customize our cars.

    Anyways, was a good game in the series, I hope they take it up from here. What did you guys think of it?

    Yes, it's developed by Ghost Games and Criterion, and yeah, it does look a lot like Burnout, but fun still!

    I liked the most wanted (reboot) a lot more than this one. It felt like a downgrade to be fair, its completely subjective but the car selection wasn't the best and more importantly the map didn't feel as big as MW.
