1) I've never played a Need For Speed game. I don't really know anything about it other than it's a car game. It looks like you're racing against the cops. It does look pretty cool and seems like it might have a good soundtrack. If anyone who's played one of these games wants to input their personal experience, I'd welcome that.
2) I'm so very glad at least one of us is being updated on these "On The House" deals with Origin. I only find out about them here. So, thanks!! =)
Greg-- all you have to lose is a bit of bandwidth to download it. It's free. Try it out! :D
I played it ages ago. The Need For Speed games are a good balance of arcade racing and realism.
I was downloading it as I wrote the comment. =)
Most Wanted was one of the NFS games developed by Criterion, the studio that made the Burnout games. One of the things I loved about the Burnout games was that intense sense of speed, with precision control. Hot Pursuit felt that way. I'm sure Most Wanted does, too. Definitely worth a download, since it's free.
I played a Burnout game a few years ago, so I decided to get Burnout Paradise on Steam. I haven't played it much though. Thanks for the input, Scrypt, that makes this game sound cool. I'll give a try some time.
I have Burnout Paradise on Steam, and I swear it used to work, but now it crashes after every event and none of the fixes I've read online seem to address it.
It's a great game though, I played the hell out of it on PS3.
