Really enjoyed this game.
User Rating: 6.5 | Need for Speed: Shift X360
I am going to start by saying I really enjoyed this game, so this review will be from a NFS fan's perspective. This is a great racing game. It is supposed to be a racing sim game but I feel different. It is more realistic than past Need For Speeds, but it's not overly realistic. Shift still retains that arcade like racing style that Need For Speed is known for. The career mode is the obviously going to be the game's biggest selling point. The career is packed full of race events ranging anywhere from circuit to drift. Sadly there is NO drag. The difficuly is about the usual for a Need For Speed game; the racing is realistic, but not as realistic as say Gran Turismo for example. On to the content/features, there are plenty of cars at your disposal and customization options for each car are all pretty in depth as far as performance. The visual customization options are a bit lacking when compared to NFS Underground or something. The graphics are quite nice actually. The cars and environments are beautiful and detailed. In conclusion I highly recommend picking this game up, I have completed it's career and I am still playing it, quite addictive
