Need for Speed: SHIFT

Graphics are really good and the game play is a lot of fun. I think the options are important though, one setting was way too easy so backing down the settings make the game a bit more challenging.

Overall, I do like it...

I've never played Forza so I'll check that out too! Good thing all these games are coming out with winter right around the corner.

.

i think once you get into the game the difficulty is VERY unbalanced. like some races i'll be 10 secs + ahead of the next car then like say the carrera GT race at spa.... it gets insane everyone is wrecking into you you cant see and can you have no idea were you are and you have to run a perfect lap to stay even in the top 7. you have to play it more like a video game and wreck people than a true sim.

then the cat battles at the ring i will have to retry it like 5 times and i can have a perfect corner and the car either passes me or is never more than like.4 secs behind

so it goes from easy to insanely hard the back to easyish

^ totally true. I was in the tier 2 races, and was balling out of control with money lol so I gave my e36 M "the works". Now mind you when I just had the level three performance parts I was smoking the guy you have to face in the 370. After I did the works and pretty much doubled if not more my performance stats, the Z had no problem magically keeping up if not passing me. WTF? Like MC said this is entertaining but by no means a sim. Fun game though, I enjoy it.
