Games For Sail

After just getting in after returning the rental copy of Shift I have to say I might have to go out again to buy it. Past additions of the game have been very poor indeed. The last one that was worth a ten minute go was Undercover and that was at best, okay.

This game has actually got a chance of competiting with the new Forza game which is on the way later this month.

The playability of the game really is quite brilliant with many hours having to be spent finishing all of the races, tuning the cars to suit your needs and playing it on the various difficulties. Some of the online modes are certainly going to take a while to get into.

This game isn’t about new cars but more about the custom made models from the likes of BMW, Nissan and every other car maker you can think of.

Need for Speed in terms of fun does actually seem a lot better than Forza but having only played the demo of Forza it might be a bit too early to tell. Forza seems to have a better engine when it comes to graphics as well as having a larger selection of cars.

EA has made a surprising move this year by concentrating on the driver and how the driver would feel whilst driving the car. Everything in the game is supposed to make you feel like the driver, any crash you make will turn the screen blurry and even go black and white.

Buying them both is sometimes not affordable so just play the demo's and get a feel for both of the games and make a decision!
