VG247.com | NFS Unbound is great, why did EA bury it? The Thursday Nite Rant @MrVg247 | Uploaded 1 year ago | Updated 5 hours ago
Need For Speed Unbound is really good. It's a slick open-world racer with fresh ideas that isn’t afraid to punish the player for slipping up. It’s not a sunday driving car collector sim like Forza Horizon (which I love, but actual racing isn’t the focus, pun absolutely intended). It’s not a thinly-veiled follow-up to arcade crash simulator Burnout Paradise, which so many previous Need For Speeds have been. No. It’s a stylish game about high-stakes speed racing, and it feels so good in the hands that being made to live with your mistakes is all part of the fun.
So… why didn’t EA want to show it to anyone? We ponder this and more in The Thursday Nite Rant, a show we couldn’t think of a title for so we stole it from a Dril tweet. Have at, let us know in the comments if you think we’re full of exhaust.
