NEED FOR SPEED RIVALS RATED UPDATE

We'll update this review once some fellow racers join the fray. Ghost Games claims itвЂ™s a seamless transition from single- to multiplayer sessions and back, but for the time being itвЂ™s just one claim that remains to be seen. While I didnвЂ™t get a chance to check it out much myself (hooray underpopulated servers!), RivalsвЂ™ new All-Drive mechanic is a sort of MMO/racing game mash-up that pushes online friends and random players into your world, creating a on-the-fly competitive and/or cooperative experience. This touch of real-life racing may irritate some, but I found it to be one of Rivals more endearing surprises. A rainstorm may mean the difference between first and last in a race, and a harsh bit of sunlight may make you wreck where you otherwise wouldnвЂ™t. But donвЂ™t think weather will always work in your favor. Thanks to EAвЂ™s powerful Frostbite 3 engine, ever-changing weather and lighting patterns help make each race feel different, even ones that reside in areas of the world you've already explored. A world this full of interwoven events slows down for no one-even those who need a bathroom break. ItвЂ™s a world stuck in a constant state of change with events popping up where you least expect them, and the returning Autolog feature making it hard to call it quits when there's just one more challenge to attempt. Need for Speed fans: Redview could potentially be your Skyrim. YouвЂ™ll drift around bends with a pull of the e-brake, careen off half-hidden jumps, fly through speed traps, and ultimately enjoy every minutia of the overloaded landscape. The simple act of driving around is a blast.
