This successor for NFS Shift (1) keeps on the sim feel, while having forgiving gameplay. I like the physics in the corners, with the weight shifting when you hit the brakes/gas. Fun for a while, but here are some issues that kept me from enjoying the game:

I have issues with the AI at the start of the race, ramming into me as I late brake to cut ahead. Hitting/tapping your brakes by accident while midair will send your car flying out of control when you come down.

A major gripe I have with the game is that they dangle certain cars in front of your face, you upgrade them to use in the next teir (D -> C) and yet you can't use them (i.e. can't use the Nissan 200sx in C races). I want to use this "Silvia" to race against those WRX, Evo, and Focus (lol) but some reason even with upgrades, the only Nissans I can use are the 350z (why not the 370z?) or the G35 Coupe (my beloved RWD VQ35DE).
