@RabbiSchmuley: lol what does it matter how much he values the game at? If you like NFS go buy it, if you don't know wait a month or so when the game is 30-40$.

@deviltaz35: Have you even played the game or are you basing your decision off a few videos you saw online? I'm a pretty picky person but I'm really enjoying it. However I couldn't care less about Manual shifting in an arcade style game. Also while it sucks a big one, the always online crap isn't a reason to totally blast the game either. Although it would have made the game a whole lot better.

@JustPlainLucas: It does suck but then again it's not a major reason to skip the game unless you just don't have good internet.

I like the game so far, cheesy FMV's are just that but add character too. The always online while dumb, hasn't affected me in any way yet other than seeing other players. Driving mechanics seem fine, it's not forza but it's not supposed to be. People seem to be a bit hard on it for all the wrong reasons (No day night cycle whoopty-doo)...

Ohh no, microtransactions? Basically killed any hope for me trying this out again. Been playing since the original game. I remember standing in walmart playing and challenging other people as they walked by. Yeah may sound lame but it was fun to my friends and I.

Meh

Wow, yeah.... Thanks EA, I mean 343. Nice job cheapening the experience for us all. Even the thought of microtransactions in the game ruins it for me somewhat.

@predatorGS: No

@ughz: huh?

Going to get the controller but already have a nice PC I'll use for steam big picture of try to make it boot to it on a different account. Either way wont be buying these overpriced machines.
