Need For Speed: Rivals Review | Die4Games

Did you know Need For Speed has been around since 1994? It's also the most successful racing video game series spanning across consoles and generations, but since Underground the series started suffering from a slow puncture. Fans criticised the subsequent releases of distancing themselves from what made the series great and publisher EA seemed to have lost their way. Power-sliding in comes Criterion, the British developer behind the highly successful and incredibly fun Burnout series who totally revamped the game and made it a nitro fuelled good time again! Criterion however publicly declared they were done with racing games and EA had to find another developer who had the behemoth task of besting Criterion's efforts and that developer is Ghost Games and luckily for us and EA 80% of the staff is made up of former Criterion staff so is Rivals in good hands?
