⚖️ fMeter {A-} Worth a play, if you enjoy Furious Racing. However, if you're looking for Realism Races, don't play it
🔎 Long Version Checklist ➜ Reveal

🕘 IMPRESSION:
* 2008: Game released on PS3, Xbox
* 2018: Remastered released on Steam
* 2020: Resume playing from many years ago
* 3 hours gameplay later: Exciting but flaw...
* 2024: Good game but lack of option to change playstyle

🔊 TESTER MUST KNOW:
* Remaster = HD resolution, Unlock all DLC cars
* DLC = Legendary cars, Toy cars, Bikes, another open world
* Love free-roam and search for races & stunts
* No personal best record in singleplayer campaign
* DLC cars make the game much easier
* Choose a strong / weak car to change the difficulty
* Must use hotkey to restart last race

💎 SAME GENRE COMPARISON:
* Being hunted game mode
* Extreme cool damaging effects
* Large capacity nitrous boots
* Takedown challenges
* No junction barrier to force turning left or right
* No linear race list to follow, freedom start any race on the map
* Allow edit route for online players
* Introduction the online players race record before the race start
* Hotseat + Online multiplayer
* Stunt trick score attack
* Free DLC
* Orchestra music available
* Capped to 60fps

⚠️ RUMOR CHECKING:
* Remaster doesn't looks like modern graphic ➜ Remaster is not remake in a new engine
* My PC system is unplayable ➜ My PC system is playable
* Boycott EA & Origin app, don't buy ➜ My PC able to run Origin & Steam together

the state of steam user reviews... I mean these days even meme reviews have more value.

The scoring scheme is a hyperlink, you can click and open detail.

Completely useless review. So, can you play the game on your system (whatever system that might be)? Do you boycott EA or can you stop the circlejerk and enjoy the game? Questions we don't get answered. But hey, at least two people were retarded enough to give you awards.
