A pumping contemporary soundtrack adds to the urban atmosphere, and this PC version adds more tracks. Need for Speed Rivals - Own the complete Need for Speed Rivals experience. There’s loose riffs on the Griffith Observatory and Hollywood Hills, sure, but it’s more a tonal tribute to LA, the city at twilight after the parties have died and before the trash is collected. The city won’t chime with memories so much as it will resonate with senses. They’re poor uses of an otherwise visually stunning world that captures LA’s (sorry, Ventura Bay’s) imposing gloom like few games before it, at least from the perspective of a person driving through it very fast.

It's bright, fast, and running at that full 1080p that makes techheads swoon (reportedly 30fps if you were wondering). You can also find new parts, and sniff out designated scenic views by driving up to, say, a graffiti mural and pressing the relevant button to take a picture when prompted. Need for Speed: Rivals is gorgeous on the PlayStation 4. You can hunt for doughnut spots in which you spin your car round in a little circle for points before driving off sad that it didn’t involve Krispy Kreme in any way. It’s needlessly tricky to maintain momentum. Powersliding in a standardly-balanced ride demands high speed, but reaching that speed takes ages, and it's reduced instantly when you do drift.

Winding canyons and tight docks introduce a new problem: drifting. Read Common Sense Medias Need for Speed Rivals review, age rating, and parents guide. In heavily referencing LA’s grid-based layout you can sometimes complete an entire race without touching the brakes, only occasionally dealing with a sudden right angle turn.Īlthough Ghost claims to have lessened rubberbanding AI, it sometimes feels like you’re only driving at the speed they designate: grazing scenery sees you drop multiple places, but you can sometimes spontaneously leap from first to last as opponents all seemingly drive over banana peels. Race as or against the police in this arcade driving game. Tires grip the road and motors have a heft they makes it seem bodies are really sinking into their suspension, and tune-ups, whether geared towards racing or drifting, feel markedly different.
