Reflecting on the Golden Days A Nostalgic Journey through Need for Speed Take a stroll down memory lane, reminiscing about the glorious times when badass cars ruled the streets in Need for Speed games. Once a pinnacle of racing excellence, the franchise has taken an unexpected turn with ‘ NFS Unbound.’

Reconsidering Car Overload
The Need for Selective Garages Questioning the necessity of a garage full of cars for street races. ‘Unbound’ seems to have forgotten the joy of mastering select vehicles, diluting the unique feel of each ride.
Assessing Levels and RPG Elements
A Shift in Gameplay Dynamics Critiquing the shift towards a levelling system that transforms cars into characters, reminiscent of anime, rather than evolving gameplay. Remember the days when upgrading a ride meant fine-tuning performance, not turning it into a character needing to level up.
EA’s Missed Opportunity
