Need for Speed: The Run - Xbox 360

These games are a blast and it was it awesome condition., Always a fan of anything need for speed.

NFS: The Run is awesome, to put it bluntly. The ones that disagree are stuck in the past. Time to move on, fellas. This isn't 1999. Graphics - 9/10 Utilizing Battlefield 3's Frostbite 2 engine, the environments look beautiful and the cars look amazing. Ranging from snow-capped mountains to open deserts, the game uses the engine well. Only downfall is the terrible quality of the anti-aliasing and the ungodly amounts of screen tearing. Sound - 9/10 Not too many environment sounds, but the car sounds are great. Every car has a different sound. While the voiceovers aren't exactly up to scratch of a triple-A game, it works. Gameplay - 8/10 This is the more rough-around-the-edges part of the game. Some events are fun as hell, while others are frustratingly difficult. The game uses a "Rewind" system so that whenever you crash or press the back button, it sends you back to the last checkpoint. While this is a great idea, it's a wasted opportunity. There are only 5 resets to a race and it takes anywhere from 5-15 seconds to load. And on some occasions, you won't even crash when hitting a pole or a car, thus wasting a reset to get back into the race. Controls - 10/10 Let's face it - the controls for Hot Pursuit were terrible. The cars handled like a dump truck and it was tough to adjust. While the controls are similar here, they have been tightened up and feels realistic. Fun Factor - 4.5/5 Overall, the game is very fun except for a few hitches here and there. 5/5

A race across the country from San Fran to NYC, with many stops along the way. Simply put the concept is an updated Cruisin USA. Which is not a bad thing at all. Point to point racing with a few surprises thrown in here and there to keep it fun and from getting boring. I love the game and would play it again through the story multiple times. Great graphics and physics. The cars handle as they should to be realistic but not so hard that it isn't fun. You can really get a sense of the power under the hood in each vehicle. Great car selection too. Beamers, Lambos, Porsches, Aston Martins, Nissans and many more. There isn't a lot of depth here for free roaming or customization, but there isn't supposed to be. So if that's what you like in a racing game, go elsewhere. Mainly I love this game because it reminds me of all the old racing games from the N64 era and how they were plain old fun, without all the complications. Except this is HD graphics and a lot more detailed landscapes. A good amount and variety of terrain on the tracks as well. Dirt roads, asphalt, snow and plenty of hidden shortcuts and alternate routes to seek out.

Awesome game, one of my favorite NFS games. But buyers be aware that the servers have been shut down and the game can NOT be played at all if your 360 is connected to the internet. You will have to disconnect the 360 from the internet in order to play the game.

Here's the gist: The mob is after you, and one of your old pals hires you to race across the country for 10% of a 25 million dollar prize. You get to choose from a selection of cars in your garage to start, then race from San Fran. to NY. You must beat out 200 other racers to win. The graphics using the Frostbite 2 engine are absolutely stunning. You can also set the sound to hear more of the racing aspect, or a "Hollywood" chase. The default camera is awesome, making you feel right in the action with every turn, speed boost & crash. The multiplayer also has many challenges to compete in to unlock more cars. Up to 16 players can participate online. The multiplayer is split into playlists including Supercar Challenge, NFS Edition Racing, The Underground, Mixed Competition, Muscle Car Battles, and Exotic Sprint. The only con for me is that there isn't a cockpit view. All in all though, this is a definite adrenaline ride, and in my opinion, the most fun I've had with a non-sim racer in a long time.

I personally enjoyed the story line. It pulled me in. The story mode is appropriately challenging but still fun even when the going gets tough. The game has some randomness at times (random glitches where you drive into digital unconstructed nothingness)...this happen with certain challenges, but not in story mode. In police chases, they clearly have it out for you relative to other drivers in single player mode and it gets worse as you get closer to reaching target times to reach gold. This imbalance also shows in how the game generates traffic specifically for you to lose and not just as part of the everyone's challenge in a race. However I love a challenge. The more the game "hates" on my skills...the more I want to beat it. So I guess for those type of gamers...job well done. Playing online is blast once you know the every track well. Until then, expect to get trashed and destroyed by the more experienced racers.

2 words: " TOO SHORT " I purchased this game for my 10 years old Brother as a Christmas gift.. he started playing it on December 31... The story is quite simple and well articulated with not only racing but also a few moments of actual live action: you basically have to run for your life by taking off from San Francisco, CA and racing for 3000 miles and arriving in New York, NY while passing all the 200 opponents that are in your same situation trying to fix their life with the Race Jackpot. (i would like to point out that i just watched my 10 years old Brother Racing this game because i can not drive with the analog controller and you can't switch it to the digital) HERE ARE ALL THE PROBLEMS: as you start the game you can choose between a series of Cars, some newer, some older, you get what you want expecting that during the rest of the Game you will unlock all the other nicer Cars that you see in the Race, but both me and my brother were super impressed to find out that we were wrong: Shortly after the Game started we were able to stop at a Gas Station and get a new Car, a NISSAN GT-R Skyline and then after a couple of more stages we stopped at another Gas station were we got a LAMBORGHINI Gallardo... we were really looking forward to get the LAMBORGHINI Reventon in the near future, but instead at a certain point you Car get's crashed by some mobsters and you are forced to run away with an Audi R8 that my brother seriously didn't like. INTERESTING FACT: after 4 hours of Playing the Game and a total of less than 2 hours of racing, my 10 years old Brother already managed to drive from San Francisco, CA all the way to Chicago, IL !!! YES: IN 2 HOURS OF ACTUAL RUNNING TIME WE COVERED ALL THE WAY BETWEEN SAN FRANCISCO AND CHICAGO !!! Finally in Chicago, IL there was a Gas station were we were able to switch vehicle again and get something more Exotic (PAGANI Hyuara ... no Zondas :-( ), but again: NO SIGNS of a V12 Lamborghini or of a crazy Toyota Supra like the ones that we were fighting against. YET: you keep Racing against these others amazing Super Cars (Cars like LAMBORGHINI Reventon, PAGAZI Zonda, Mc'Laren F1, BUGATTI... etc etc) that for some reasons you are not allowed to use during the entire Race! FUNNY FACT: apparently a Lamborghini goes slower than a Ford Focus and even of a 1st Series VW Golf as well as many other old old cars! the next day, January 1st, my Brother resumed the Game... Soon we encountered another Gas station... NOTHING NEW, same usual Cars, so we switched to a Mc'Laren MP-12C ... 2 Hours later my 10 Years old Brother Won the Race by reaching New York in 1st Position. ... END OF THE GAME AMAZING: his Total Running Time is 2 hours and 28 minutes... YES, apparently you can drive from San Francisco, CA to New York, NY in 2 and a half hours! !!! BETTER THAN AN AIRPLANE !!! i guess there is no much more to say THE ONLY NICE THING: the Game is not only Racing, but there are few moments in which there is some live action with you running on your feet to save your life that said THE GAME WAS COMPLETED IN A TOTAL OF ABOUT 6 HOURS OF PLAYING TIME BY A 10 YEARS OLD KID i think this Game is worth no more than $5... any penny more is wasted

Buen juego aunque para jugar hay que estar desconectado del internet ya que a fuerzas se tiene que conectar a los servidores del juego Pero los cerraron hace años, fuera de eso envejeció bien buenos gráficos y conducción realista aunque un poco corto en 2 horas te lo terminas.

Me encanta, y me dio mucho gusto conseguirlo aqui en Amazon!!

Juego de video EXCELENTE!

Is good, the disk was barely scratched in one place. The game itself is pretty good but not quite up to the standard of other NFS racing games. The drifting feature is harder to do than NFS Rivals and hairpin turns are extremely sharp, so it will take quite a bit of practice to do it well. The race is segmented into certain distances, but they are fairly short, I like longer races like in Rivals.

Buen producto, excelente calidad, buen servicio llegó a tiempo muchas gracias
