When i first bought this game i was still a little scepticle about whether nfs would decide to make their games better. Then i got it home and played it and was convinced right away. The cars are awesome, the racing is more realistic but not to much to the point that its not fun, and the upgrades are better. Everything they did was right on point with what they needed to do to show that they can still make a good racing game.

With all the racing games "Shift" is a must buy! Great in the drivers seat graphics, single and mulitiplayer outstanding. Controls are very easy and manual Shifting is no problem. With great driving comes rewards as in badges, upgrades and like all great driving games awsome cars. If you are into racing and maybe not but you want to jump off the shooter games give "Shift" a try. I received this game as a gift and was skeptical, well days later was still playing the game.

This is probably my favorite NFS game yet and I have played just about every one since High Stakes. This is the first racing game that I have used the in-car camera solely. I can't imagine playing this game and not taking advantage of that. The graphics are the best I have seen of the NFS series even when you're going 150+, there isn't any skipped frames which would make it feel unrealistic. The car battles are probably the most fun with it being a 1-on-1 best out of 3 race.
After playing this game it is obvious that some of the reviewers on here need to have their reviewing priveledges revoked. Especially the one complaining that you can't turn down the race music because it is turned off by default, all you can hear during the races are your car.
My only complaint I have about this game is that it takes an unusually long time to load the tracks. Sometimes it seems like I'm sitting there for 30secs before the level loads. However, that just gives me a chance to get a drink and get comfy.
What's great about it: Graphics, Physics, In-car camera

First off, Don't listen to the reviews on here from people that havn't even played the game yet. (the ones that posted a review before the game even came out). This is infact the the best NFS game in a long time. The graphics are better than any other NFS game to date. The sense of speed on the cars you drive are just insane! You really do feel like you are the driver and not just some inside car view. You can even see the driver press down on the gas pedal as well as see the glare from the dashboard are all great details. when you get up to speed in your car everything in the background starts to blur which is a really cool effect. This is a must buy for racing fans.
What's great about it: Graphics, sound effects of cars, the sense of speed

You can pick from a wide range of cars - from a ford focus to a zonda r - it takes some getting used to braking in the turns, but with enough practice it is pretty easy. The sounds that the cars make are unreal. Just like other NFS car games you upgrade your car as you level up and make more money. This is a racing only game, there is no free world you can just go joy ride around in. I would recommend this to anyone looking to play a fun and exciting race car game.
