Need for Speed Rivals - Best Racing Game 2013

Platform(s): PC, PS3, Xbox 360, PS4, Xbox One
Publisher: Electronic Arts
Developer: Ghost Games

In racing, speed is everything and Electronic Arts brought new developer Ghost Games up to speed for the latest in its arcade racing franchise, Need for Speed. Despite fears that Criterion’s move to a new project would hurt the franchise, Ghost Games took the most recent NFS titles for a test drive and brought all the best elements from 2010’s Hot Pursuit and 2012’s Most Wanted to a new location and a new online environment.

The Japanese language instruction firm Gaba also does surveys about topics of interest for its customers, and today it published the "2013 survey for business people on the goals for next year and looking back to the past year." What's most interesting is that between the long list of results there's also a bit of gaming, as the PS4 ranked third overall between the most wanted items for 2014, and 1st between businessmen in their twenties.

"Efficient" isn't a word typically used to describe a Need for Speed game, but it's the most fitting for Need for Speed: Rivals. Whereas 2010s Hot Pursuit revived the spirit of cops against racers and 2012s Most Wanted took us back to the open-world bliss of Burnout Paradise, Rivals feels like a careful arrangement of the best ideas from those two games (and delicately leaves 2011s The Run as a curious outlier).

Quote: "Need For Speed: Rivals does nothing special and as a result, is nothing special. It's a decent but uninspired offering. It's blandly beautiful and you would do well enough never giving it a go. However if you really must try out every NFS title and you enjoyed last year's Most Wanted offering, you might fancy Rivals as well. "

Stevivor's Nicholas Simonovski writes, "The involvement of Criterion in the Need For Speed franchise was not one without its share of criticism and scepticism from the fans. With both the release of Hot Pursuit and then Most Wanted, its debatable whether either of those two titles fit in with the previous games in the series. That said, while Criterion might have released two titles that felt more like a Burnout game with the NFS brand slapped over it, theres no denying that the contributions they made were invaluable. Reason being, while Most Wanted mightnt have been the game a lot of us were hoping for, without it, Im confident in saying that Rivals wouldnt have been as great as it now is. And let me tell you, this game is amazing."
