Gamestop 8.0

US Gamer 5/5

Playstation life 8.5

EGM 7

Gamesradar 3.5/5

AusGamers 8.5

Eurogamers spain - 9

Pros:

  • Exciting mix of pure driving,
  • Aggressive maneuvering, and using technology
  • Seamless integration of single- and multiplayer brings world to life
  • Terrifically tempting risk-versus-reward mechanic for racers
  • Gorgeous visuals
  • Ferrari is back
  • Two complete career modes

Cons:

  • Conspicuous AI rubber-banding
  • Limited cop car customizations
  • No local split-screen multiplayer option


It looks like a solid debut racer for the ps4. Which we need since Drive club is delayed.

The reviews are quite good across the board.

Anyone pick this game up yet?

If I were to get ps4 now it would be with this game but I thought those reviews were for need for speed in general not specifically the ps4 version

Drive club no release date. Early 2014 (whenever that is) Probably late winter early spring.

I bought this game today. Looks too fun to pass up.

How have the cons NOT been the constant host migration issues? It completely ruins the game when whoever hosts the game quits and the game takes over a minute to migrate to a new host. This game is a 5/10 just for that reason.

Yeah and because its 2013 we're all suppose to do things together without actually being together, makes sense.

Passing on a game because it's missing one feature doesn't make sense either.

Thank goodness for this game as it saved the PS4 launch for sure. How would you compare the graphics? I can't play mine until Christmas so I just want to know what your opinion is graphically?

That's a pretty big feature though. I was shocked at the beginning of last gen when I found out Burnout Paradise was only one-player (after I had bought it). Thankfully racing games since then at least had 2-player splitscreen and can you imagine the sales of kart racing games if they ONLY had 2-player split-screen and not 4-player?

Picked up the game tonight. Really enjoying myself with it so far. Will need to log a few more hours to have a better analysis.

what no splitscreen no way thats a joke, u cant beat playing driving games with your mates in the same room,ill wait till some one brings out a driving game on ps4 with splitscreen and hopefully some one makes a driving game where u can use the ps vita as the 3rd player two players on t.v one on the ps vita or even 4 players it they can get the ps4 to do that its the next gen now why not its being done before on the ps1.very diserpointed they never put in splitsceen im not buying it thay want 50 to 60 pounds for these games on the ps4 its an insult to the next gen not to have this feature and us gamers.

I have played need for speed on ps4 and loved it. It was the first one that i have played in the series in a long time. The graphics were superb. Driving upwards of 200 mph and no rendering at all. The story was also fun. Never had so much fun playing a racing game. I would like split screen but for single player this game is great.
