The only downside to the “presentation” is the sound, I got royally sick of the soundtrack after about an hour! Check Out, My Ride Man! It sounds like a strange thing to get excited about, but I love the way that the road looks when rain is pounding off it. The car all look amazing, even if the selection is a little limited compared to a Forza or Gran Turismo game. The way you can glide around corners is really cool and I like the way the game lets you decide if you want more focus on the grip or the drifting. The fictional city of Ventura Bay is massive and has three very distinct locations that you can race on. On the road, this is a fast and furious arcade-style racer, and the most like the Underground series we have ever gotten up to this point.
Not many games use FMV these days so it is cool that this is a series that loves to do just that. Some of it is downright cringy, but I love it. The game plays it straight, but you can just tell that these actors were having a great time doing all this stuff. One of the things that I love about Need For Speed 2015 is the way the story is told. The multiplayer flat out sucks! The always-online thing just did not click for me as I would much prefer being able to play against who I want and when I want. The single-player aspect of this game is way better than the multiplayer mode if you ask me.
