This one is my favourite. Sorry but couldn't help favouring this one.

More trailers:
Launch Trailer:

Adrenaline junkies and speed fiends will find themselves on the wrong side of the law when they race for their lives in Need for Speed: The Run. This game takes players on a heart-pounding cross-country race from San Francisco to New York. Players are lured into an underground world of illicit, high-stakes racing. The heat is on -- and it isn't just the fuzz who are after you. Entering the race is just the beginning as you blow across borders, weave through dense urban traffic, rocket down icy mountain passes and navigate narrow canyons at breakneck speeds.

Powered by DICE's state-of-the-art Frostbite 2 engine, Need for Speed: The Run takes the action racing genre to new heights with stunning visuals and car physics that hug the road even at top speeds all built around a gripping storyline. The cars are hot, the racing is intense and the story will have you at the edge of your seat ... all the way from the Golden Gate Bridge to the Empire State building.

Wo, i m waiting, at last a storyline nfs after nfs:undercover

I am not going for it unless the damage is real

Will buy only after reading reviews !

The damage would be real for sure, but on your purse.

after NFS cabron & underwear, i've stopped falling for the hype EA makes.

^^ Underwear. :))

I will be pre ordering this one next month. HP was my first pre order. Just cant help splurging on this one. The gameplay videos are promising.

Haven't played Undercover and Shift but Carbon was not all that bad. The mountain race with the lambo is etched into my mind. The Most Wanted however remains my favourite and I would go ahead and say that it was the best in the series.

Carbon and shift were quite good although shift was for semi simulators. Undercover was average at best. I'm honestly not that excited for this specially because this one is from electronic arts as I have seem their gimmicks. Will get this one only after positive reviews.
As far as I know there is already a thread regarding this game so mods please merge this one with that thread.

Aren't all NFS games from EA? If its the developer then I don't know if Blackbox and EA are the same.

As always trailer rocks. Hopefully the game will also do the same.

T

Imo , the first NFS was the best in the series. Come on , it had the awesome Ferrari 512 Testarossa! How could you not love that car!

I'll be buying this one only after the reviews though , trailers can be so misleading (they're good I admit)

Sarath said:

Actually Electronic Arts are publisher while Blackbox are the developers of this game but with attitude of Electronic arts with this series I have lost faith in them.

I hope this one in on par with MW.

I hope the off-road in this game is for REAL man. :))

I am looking for off-road racing game, can anyone help me....

yeah..a good gripping story with this game will be a treat to all gamers

Dirt Series is best for off-road.

Just completed the demo and I have mixed thoughts on it. It's good, but not something you haven't already seen before. The concept of this game, however, is a bit different. Unlike the previous games, where you compete against a certain number of racers for first position, this isn't like that. I mean you are competing for the top spot, but this is one giant race from San Francisco to New York. So when you start the race, I'm assuming you'll be the last (say around 200th position) and then slowly work your way up to 1st, before you touch New York.

You're offered 2 levels in the demo; Desert Hills level which takes place in Death Valley National Park, California & the Summit level, which takes place in the snow clad mountains of Independence, Colorado. You have 2 vehicles to choose from; The Lamborghini Gallardo LP550-2 and the Porsche 911 Carrera S. Out of which, only the Gallardo is playable and the Carrera will be unlocked, if you invite a friend. 4 difficulty levels; Easy, Normal, Hard & Extreme.

So we start off with the Desert hills level, where you are instantly dropped into 160th position and have to race through the other 9-10 odd racers, who are ahead of you. The challenges here are mainly on-coming vehicles that you can crash into. Just like the previous games, you can take short-cut routes as an alternate path. There's a new addition to the gameplay called 'Rewind'. Like the name states, it's a time reversal feature, in a manner of speaking. If you wreck your car in a major crash, the screen fades out and a rewind icon appears and you're pulled back by 15 secs (approx). This is to rectify the error that you had made and approach it carefully the next time. The amount of times you can use this feature, depends on the level of difficulty you chose. Controls were a bit off in the beginning, as it didn't notice any button for hand-brake, which was odd. Cleared that area in 2 minutes and 39 secs.

Off to the Summit track and this is where the fun really began. You'll see a short cut-scene of the protagonist, Jack out standing near a road blocked path and a car just gushes past him tearing apart the roadblock. We then take control of our car and resume our race. Throughout the race, we have just one opponent to deal with. This is a snow-clad mountain area and you'll see rockets being launched from a distance, thus creating an avalanche in front of us. You'll have to wade through all the boulders and rocks that keep falling in front of you. At the same time, you have to avoid falling off the cliff, as they aren't barricaded. This level looks stunning coupled with awesome physics. It's sort of adrenaline pumping. Felt more like Split/Second events being adopted. Clocked time was 3:28.

I'll quickly comment on the performance and sound. The performance was horrible on the 360. The frame rates were extremely poor and V-Sync had been taken out. The graphics looked really blurred in some parts and rendering physics effects took a massive toll. I'm sure it would look way better on the PC, but I doubt the people with low configurations would be able to play it. Crash effects were average. It's a demanding engine all right. Soundtrack was pretty dull and nothing worth mentioning.

Fingure crossed man

@Ethan_Hunt Thanks. Repo++;

Demo out on PSN? :shock:

R

Release date?

Oh yes, I will update the main post with release date and pre order details.

Release date - 15 nov 2011

It says 18th Nov here

Guys the icing on the cake is that this game is going to use the same frostbite 2 engine seen in battlefield 3.

So the visuals are going to be breathtaking in my opinion.

That means it will look like a powerpoint slideshow on my pc

November 18th is the official European release date, the 15th is for North America.

Depends on the PC.

Another NFS game. Waiting for another disappointment.

Why? Hot Pursuit was pretty awesome.

For me, so so. Nothing special.

^^ New nfs hot pursuit has kind of acquired cult status. Its a brilliant game.

I like the old HP2 more.

Rewind feature!? Race Driver Grid says Hi!!

Need For Speed was awesome until Most Wanted.

After that it's just.....

HP was good especially the online play. The same reason why the second pre-order I ever do is again a NFS

R

Is there any gameplay video available?

N

Preview: Need for Speed: The Run - Deeper than Hot Pursuit, prettier than Battlefield? Gameplay Preview - ComputerAndVideoGames.com

Looks great. As an avid NFS fan, I'll give this one a try as it'll have a story and is made with FB2.0 = drool-worthy.

Street racers w/o stories like HP are boring. For me.

Pre-ordered my copy from letsbuy for 2500/- using 500 off coupon

Yipee!

Console?!..why dont you get it for PC, its just 999rs here :\

Racing on console is more fun.

Its just the controller that makes the difference(x360 controller for 1000 bucks). You seem to have a good rig, could have made sense to get it on PC for a cheaper price.

Nah my PC was build with "It can play Crysis(2)" on the mind. I only do FPS and more so the ORPGs.

PC for FPS & MMORPG
PS3 for Racing, Adventure/Action

The Demo was good. Waiting for the release now

@sam9s: What? Its clear, you prefer PC while I do the console. I understand what you are trying to say but lets leave it here for now.

^40" screen, controller, and a nice couch; make it sweeter for me.

I don't notice much difference in graphics actually. If I can't perceive it, it doesn't bother me. In fact the best game visually I have ever played is Heavy Rain on the PS3.

So you just replaced the console and with a HT setup. That's one and the same then.

Except graphics, may be.

REVIEWS are out as i expected ... YEAhh this 1 sucks ...

Need for Speed: The Run Review - PlayStation 3 Review at IGN

I kinda expected this TBH.

sam9s said:
Now what appears to be the problem is not what I would call ... sucks ...

1. Inability to customize and upgrade.
2. Non existant story
3. No an impressive AI
4. Scripted events .

I hate the so called story of NFS since Underground. Just a career tree like Hot Pursuit 2 would do. What's the need of a f***** story in a racing game, that too an arcade one?

Just give me posh locales and Lamborghinis.

I like to customise and upgrade my car. Also nice story won't hurt. I had high hopes from this game but it came as just an above average title.

Need for Speed: The Run Review - PlayStation 3 Review at IGN

Judgement based on the reviews? :\
I lost the lease respect on IGN yesterday when I read the Halo Anniversary review. And decided not to take these reviews seriously anymore, specially IGN.
Btw, the locations in Run look pretty good.

May be user scores at Metacritic is a better indicator. COD MW3 is currently rated 1.9/10 out of 3218 votes. :shock:

my frnd started playing it n called me yesterday he was really disappointed with the story... n ........ ol reviews are avg ....

Gonna play this tonight....hope it's not another sh!tty Shift....

ithehappy said:

Shift is not a shi!!y game its a semi simulator and pretty good at that. As for run its a arcade racing game nothing like shift.

May be he is referring to Shift 2, which is buggy as hell on PC. And regarding MW3, check for yourself at Metacritic.

Yeah shift 2 was buggy but not sh!tty after patches.
Yes I did checked it.

run where?

If you are a fan of the series, run to the game, if not, then run from the game, I presume.

Please dont play this another bad game from EA.

You got it already :shock:

How?

that is not important.what important is what i have posted.

revolt said:

LOL

Yeah gentleman's rule. Don't ask don't tell.

You work for EA > got the game
Just lost your job/ game really sucks > your views on game

:))

i am not married.and wont get too as i dont want to ruin my life.

my boss is an idiot who also plays with me during the weekends with some of his mates.Btw he only plays nfs and gets pwned like a noob.then cries and quits the match.

yes i got the complementary ea copy. :mrgreen:

Btw you guys can check about the validity of my statement now the game is officially out i think.

That was my opinion. I hated Shift more than any other racing games.

Skud said:

Both, besides Shift 2 ran very smoothly, its just one of those rarest game which I've uninstalled just after playing for few minutes.

I see others are saying that this game is bad, this is exactly opposite from what I've seen and read elsewhere.
Anyway, will start tomorrow, lets see.......

This game blows. Colorado rockies part was fun.The track variety is good. But there are some serious flaws, bugs and performance issues. Another disappointment.

letsbuy is yet to give me my game. So much for a pre-order that sleeps.

Completed the game this morning, and the last race was awesome...

The last race alone makes the 3 hours it takes to finish the game worth it

mitraark said:

Totally agree...

I need the game fast fast FAST!

Response from letsbuy:

We would like to inform you that currently the product is not available, however, we are procuring the product and be assured, as soon the product is procured, it will be dispatched on priority against your order.

What the HECK! It's a pre-order fo pete's sake. Damn them!

Review in a nutshell from tdf members ?

^ Not worth playing. There isn't much except.. different tracks and environments.

3 hours in, so far - enjoying it. Just reached LV.

I completed Colorado area this morning and I'm enjoying it as well. My drive level is currently at 8. The vehicles unlocked in SP are completely retarded. I got to pick the Gallardo, as soon as I hit Vegas. Independence Pass track was totally kick-ass. The time trials really do a number on me, as I hate anything which is time critical.

How's the performance of the game in PC apart from the frame rate cap? Lags or anything? And graphics?

A future patch might unlock the frame cap:-

Need For Speed: The Run; Black Box might remove the FPS cap via a future patch | DSOGaming | The Dark Side Of Gaming

M

Guys will "THE RUN" will run in my below config:
Intel DH67CL,
i5 2400 3.1GHZ,
Zotac GT440 1GB DDR3
Samsung 22" LED
HDD 1TB WD

I'm planning to buys this game.. do suggest whether it will run or not?

Not too happy with the performance - slowdowns here and there tend to ruin the experience. It's presented very well though

I didn't face any slowdowns. But the game crashed a couple of times. However when it ran, it ran very smoothly with all the settings at ultra. Didn't check the frame-rates though. Unfortunately, mine wasn't the limited edition, so couldn't drive 1 car I really wanted to drive.

tonight I am gonna install it. hope it works and all goes well

Yes it will but not on full settings.

guys Problem.. Game keeps on loading (black screen with animated icon in Top right) nothing happens after that.. any one experienced it..

Try reinstalling the game. It happened to me with NFS Shift and reinstall solved that.

I started it yesterday and first impressions were good. The game world feels good once again.

Gonna play it alongside Skyrim for time-pass.

@GamerAnand: Thanks bro..
At which settings i can play without any hassle...

You are welcome.

I guess you can play on medium settings without any hassles.

Completed the game this morning and I loved it. The final race was an adrenaline rush, but was highly scripted and was less challenging. The sound effects of this game were brilliant. Storyline was decent. Location variety and graphics were amazing. Addition of the 'Reset' feature was definitely a boon for novices like me.

So this definitely gets my vote for providing a thrill ride and proving to be a good addition of the franchise.

This game is locked on 30 FPS. Nice

Finished, run time 2 hrs 25 mins. Normal mode.
This is the most unstable game I've ever played. In places it was awesome that nothing can beat it, and in some places it's very kiddish and irritating. Some bugs were there too, like KB controls got reset sometimes, Game crashed twice, at the last race don't know what happened Fraps got exited by it's own from the game!
The last race was meaningless too, you just have to keep the car running and survive the train lines and the shipping dock(or whatever that is) and you'll be closed down to the rival automatically and all you have to do is just keep accelerating for last less than 1 km.
The thing which I hated most is the Reset time limit and Try Again options. How nonsense it is that you can't restart a race more than five times, yes it will be needed hardly but still. And that Try Again pop up and cracking sky sound along with it is pretty weird and stupid, kiddish obviously. As usual this is the smallest game I've played this far.
Overall I liked it, especially the dodging of helicopter bullets, cars and that ice falling stage was awesome. The music environment throughout the game was very good too, as Sam said it was like Hollywood movies. And I also like the man to man/police chases, it was pretty fun in intervals.
I'd give this a 6.5/10.
My favorite remained the HP anyway.

BTW- Whatever you do don't take that idiotic Pagani for the last race, the controlling of the car is disgusting, even when it's say Normal, IMO it felt like Challenging. Don't know why I couldn't take some cars, got said, needed Limited Edition or Signature Edition! Oops, what edition did I run?

sam9s said:
^^ Well too bad for you, bad rip I guess .... I had no such problem at all, certainly no bugs what so ever. ......

Well it wasn't a rip but a full version! Did you play Limited Edition or something like that?
Now I am playing it for fun, selecting stages manually, and now I can chose some cars which was locked during the main gameplay. I think driver level has something to do with it. When I finished I was on Level 11, I guess it wasn't enough to unlock some/all cars.
Continuing the Challenging mode and playing the main game stages with different cars, it's more fun now

sam9s said:
Nope no limited edition. And mine was full version as well. 2 ISOs Black Box edition......

Same here!

Yesterday at last I made it working..what is the size of installation Directory who got full version.. I am much more casual Gamer.. I play once in week so(I don't think I will even finish this Game.). I got myself a rip (4.7Gb). Mine installation Directory (or say Extraction Directory) is 15.3GB.. .

^^ I have a question for you guys:

Did any of you get to drive the Aventador?

Have you completed the game? If not, then don't read it, as it might be a spoiler to some.

In the last stage of the career, you have to choose between 3 cars after the Helicopter shootout scene ends. 1 is a Pagani, 1 is a Porsche, and the 3rd is a Lamborghini Avantador. Were you able to select the Aventador?

17GB..hmm. dunno what is missing in Mine.. Most probably Languages and videos must be shrinked so not bad.. got almost everything and with size of 4.7 GB .. Only problem is it takes 90 mins to install(extract) on my system at least. stiil not bad enjoying it even my frontech game Pad works with it.. ..Just it shows it as a Wheel.

I wouldn't have replied if I didn't finish!
Anyway, I took the Pagani, and frankly I forgot if I could select the Lamborghini or not, but from common sense I can say it wasn't available as I wouldn't select the crap Pagani then.

90 mins? That's so boring dude.
Btw- How did you make that cool siggy dude?

^^ Nothing much just used Table Tags with pure Text..yes,90 min is boring but with size of just 4.7GB.. It is reasonable.. decompression takes time.

Dude, there were only 3 cars. I could see all 3 standing side by side. But selecting the Aventador, it showed, 'Locked, for Limited Edition' or something. You didn't even see the car?

Yea, of course I saw the car, but yes, you're right, it said locked for LE, right.

Finally I played the Run and I am loving it. Just finished Stage 1. Looks interesting.

(PS3)

got the game played and completed it worst game.Now i want to throw my copy out! damn.1640 rs wasted.

:

Just reached the Rockies. The game is very difficult at this stage. I like the new gameplay. It keeps you on the edge always. The AI is dumb though.

superb Gameplay.. this one really goes for one of the best in series. Just completed Rockies(stage 5). I love new tactics, police Road blocks are active and not dumb as before.. even environment is active(in sense are solid and car crash) with rocks,stones, trees. till now best things I found is Sand storm(very short but looked gr8) and best, avalanche. It was awesome.. With Rocks,stones falling in roads. Helicopters. Active competitors and police..(not dumb like previous games)

Last race is just awesome and real tough.

Sent from my LG-P500 using Tapatalk

Just finished the game. Really liked it. Will move to "hard" and extreme after exams. They mean it when they say it's hard.

The cops are just PITA. They are dynamic unlike before and really send a shiver down your spine. Hate them!

The last race...WOW! couldn't have asked for better. Really awesome.

Overall a nice game. Only complain if you have to make is, is that it's short. I knew the reviews were another "MW or Underground" mourning articles

Definitely worth playing. 3000 is too much to pay but it's good if you get it used for <1500

Guys.. I'm stuck at Stage 6(Make Up Time).. Can anybody give me saved files of that stage..

Me too stuck at level 8 from days now.. not stuck stuck means I have not played game from last 15-20 Days at least... hope to finish it one Day.

I thought I posted the save games in the dedicated thread.

Nice game.. I am using Logitech Driving force GT ... awesome experience...totally.. though I would have loved the in-car cam(which gives dashboard view)

I'm now on 26th position and enjoying this game a lot - after a long time I'm playing a racing game with something new ;-)

well, as always, the graphics n trailers are gettin better by the versions...
hope da gameplay n story is also strong lyk... or atleast lyk NFS Most Wanted. :wink:

Dont want another dud..
feels sad dat those who dont hav a graphic card, wont be able 2 enjoy it, as it looks.... :cry:

^^ no it's not line NFS MW ( it still the best racing game IMO ) - the single player campaign is too short and it will finish before you even know it ( completed in 2.5 Hrs ) - when you will complete the game you will feel like this should be the beginning.

NFS MW was far more better than this - you can roam freely in the city , Tune/Upgrade cars, play hide and seek with cops, mod your cars to reduce heat level, defeating down blacklisted opponents was much more tougher and the ending was just unforgeable - Run has none of this.

The starting of NFS Run was awesome and those button press moments too - but this game could have been much more better if they had added MW like gameplay.

S

That is a **** game, I got my copy on first day and I'm totally disappointed

Thank god, I've BF3 LE

Guys I'm on lvl 7. The planes. I've got a problem. When I slow down gear shifts down but it doesn't shift up and fire comes out of the exhaust. I tried reinstalling, but didn't work. Please tell me the solution. I've set transmission to automatic.

Guys, my Origin ID is "samarth619"... I'm playing NFS The Run via Origin Client on Laptop.

Kindly add me in the friends' list and do inform me here too.

Completed run ~1 week ago. It took 6 days to complete the whole game.

Enjoyed it.

It took me 2 hrs and 15-20 minutes to complete the campaign , and It wasn't nearly as terrible as I imagined it to be.

Guys, I have a question... In NFS: The Run, the prize amount is $ 250,000 which is quite a big amount.

I was on level 6 or 7, (before getting the Teir 5 Supercars, at Uri's garage)... I was racing on the highway with the Audi R8 (v10 engine) at high speeds, PLUS nitrous applied..! Suddenly, the Mafia overtakes me in their Black SUV's (and start shooting too) like I was taking a stroll in the park.
EA, are you kidding me?

And, If Mafia had access to that kind of cars & skilled drivers, why couldn't they participate in the run themselves for the money and kill Jack later on? :-D

And what the hell were they driving? Devil's personal SUV?? :shock:

Don't try to find logic in EA games(yes, even for Mass Effect 3 type games), in MW 2012 a police car can catch upto my 300km+ veyron, and only way to outrun is to go 350+ go figure.

They couldn't catch the Veyron in the main race, but when roaming in the city with it they can catch easy! Pretty nonsense.
