I echo this cry, yet sadly suspect that...

well alex ward said all future need for speed games from them would be same day releases for wii u

 

[Raide]

Burnout Paradise should die and become like the new NFS. Burnout should be resurrected and go back to the Takedown style of specific tracks, crazy vehicles and awesome crash junctions.

 

[Disorientator]

Give us a new super-duper CRASH mode (an editor would be nice) and I don't give a flying f**k about the rest of the game.

 

[Data West]

Hope it's better than Most Wanted.

 

[vio]

NFS Most Wanted (pc version at least) is awful. Steering (that fucking lag) in that game is awful. I hope next game is better.

Why do people dislike the Criterion NFS games?

Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted are excellent games! Would you rather have gotten another pro street or nfs carbon game instead?

The quality went way up with Criterion doing the NFS games. I really enjoyed all the Burnouts and Paradise is my favorite other then B2... but I don't think they will be going back to Burnout for some time.

It's not that Criterion's NFS aren't good, it's just that their Burnout games are better. EA finally found a great racing developer and instead of letting them develop a series they created, they were assigned to the task of saving one that should have died years ago.

Yes, the quality of NFS games improved, but that was building off complete crap like Carbon and World, and the developers of Shift ditched EA the first chance they got.

 

[-Amon-]

While i found their work on NFS to be entertaining i felt Burnout Paradise was better, much more content for the buck.

I hope that they're going back to paradise's route for their next work

 

[~Devil Trigger~]

Im kinda burnt out of criterion's racing mechanic formula.

Please try something else, new genre

New Gen, its the perfect time to try something new.

I don`t like Criteron NFS because the are Racing Games where you have to fill nitro bar to win.

Pretty much. All their games kind of feel like 'Yeah, these guys made Burnout.' Like it's never any different. Original Most Wanted felt completely different from Underground 2, for example.

I'd rather have a new Forza Horizon or Driver: SF at this point.

My problem is that, being that I'm not a big Burnout fan I would have preferred Criterion kept that semi-unique racing mechanism of the Burnout series confined to the Burnout series of games rather than slowly turning NFS into a re-skinned Burnout making the series almost undifferentiable.

my man...

 

[helvetica bold]

It could be they are planning on releasing a 1080p 60fps version
of Most Wanted for PS4 and Nextbox. Criterion released HD version
of Burnout Revenge for the 360 when that launched so it could be a similar
strategy.

Personally Criteron can do no wrong in my book, exceptt for Burnout Crash.
I love both Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted.

 

[Spring-Loaded]

Burnout Revengeance.

Spoiler

You heard it here first...

Omg this

 

[ismaboof]

I might buy a PS4 for 60fps Burnout Paradise 2

 

[Nirolak]

No he said all future Wii U Need For Speed releases from them would be day and date.

They did leave themselves wiggle room.

 

[Xun]

I'd much rather have a new non-open world Burnout title.

Paradise was fantastic, but it was just lacking in the magic of the older games.

 

[grosvenor_92]

Burnout Paradise 2 please.

I hope it's this

 

[boingball]

Successor to Burnout 3 Takedown please.

But this will be just a new NFS, since Criterion is now responsible for those and EA most likely expects a yearly release. Requires always online.

 

[PAULINK]

Give us another burnout, it's been too damn long! I can't stand most racing sims, I need to crash into stuff.

 

[I NEED SCISSORS]

Whatever they're doing, please fix the handling. Hot Pursuit felt smooth and responsive while Most Wanted felt like controlling a boat with arthritis.

 

[enzo_gt]

Paradise 2 for next gen console launches?

Hold me.

 

[BlazinAm]

I like EA Ghost website pretty clean looking.

 

[Mutagenic]

My point still stands, these two games are good games, don't get me wrong, but not good NFS games to me ( especially most wanted)

So you prefer Pro Street and The Run? k
