So, how do you make a series still feel fresh after twenty titles? By listening to your fans, knowing what works and what the fans want, and by delivering a game that's more than just a seasonal refresher. Need for Speed Rivals is clearly ready for the next generation of gaming, and so are we.

The Need For Speed series has suffered from a severe identity crisis in recent years, a problem that EA and Criterion seemed to have solved with Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit in 2010, one of my personal favourites of the franchise.

Need for Speed: Rivals is the Dark Souls of racing games. Now I know what you're thinking but just bear with me for a moment. In the fictional open-world of Redview County illegal street racing is king and the cops fight back with supercars of their own.

Need for Speed Rivals' boisterous and brash open-world driving design gets enormous mileage thanks to some amazingly fluid online functionality.

Good and evil is always a pleasant dichotomy to work with, especially in games where such choices are a primary gameplay mechanic.

series has been a constant on consoles for almost 20 years, and while there have been many ups and downs for the series, it has always drawn interest from racing fans. The series has also seen its fair share of developers, from EA Canada, Slightly Mad Studios, Criterion, and now Ghost Games.

Many people have fond memories of Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit, which came out in 2010, tight handling, cool cutscenes, robust multiplayer, but there was just one problem: You couldn't drive where you wanted to on the map; you had to select an event.

Definitely the best version of Tomb Raider and it shows exactly what the new generation of consoles has in store for us in the very near future.
