I’m changing up the format on reviews around here. I’m going to do them more often – and I’m going to cut right to the point instead of making you read a wall o’ text.

The Good: Fantastic chases in an open world setting, beautiful graphics, insane crashes, and one of the best multiplayer modes of any Need For Speed game.

The Bad: The mini-map is sometimes useless, the list of drivable cars is unfortunately short, and this has got to be the worst Need For Speed sountrack ever.

The Final Word: It’s worth buying – but not at the full $60. Wait a few months. Pick it up once it hits $20.

SCORE (Out of 10): 7.5
