I’m talking, of course, about arcade racers. Should you buy Need for Speed Heat? Wait for a sale.The last couple of generations of video game consoles seem to have left one of my favourite genres in the dust. The same fun experience with new cars to use and streets to race. Then again, that can be a selling point for racing fans. I just would have liked to play a game I haven't already played ten times over. I get that there's only so much you can do when it comes to arcade racers, and maybe it doesn't necessarily need to reinvent the wheel. It doesn't bring much to the table in terms of innovation. I feel as if you've played some of Need for Speed's better franchise entries, you'll feel like there's nothing new here. That said, there are still enough activities to keep you occupied. I wanted the city to be a character itself, and Palm City wasn't one. At nighttime, the neon lights give it a bit of personality, just not enough. The promise of what Miami Palm City could be is enticing, but it never capitalizes on it. It never really leans into "so bad it's actually good." It's what you'd get from a low budget action movie. I realize that's extremely reductive, and there's more to it, but that's what it boils down to, and none of it is particularly memorable. Being the rebel, you are, you go all renegade and do it anyway. Here's the story in Need for Speed Heat (I promise I'm not spoiling anything): Cops think street racing is bad and vow to crack down on it. Need for Speed Heat is set to get DLC and car packs down the line, but it doesn't look like the experience will be mired with predatory microtransactions anytime soon. EA is notorious for using them, but between this and Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order recently, it looks like the company may have learned a lesson, even just a small one. The fact that it doesn't feature any loot boxes is a big plus in my book, too. Don't worry about cosmetics, either, because Need for Speed Heat still has visual customization options to choose from. If you happen to fall in love with an early car, it doesn't have to become obsolete. You can mix up your garage with customized cars and newer cars you bought as you progress through the story.
They can affect your car's handling and speed. Everything from your engine and wheels to small things like the exhaust port can be swapped out to create your dream car. With over 100 cars and some spare change, there's a lot of customization to be done.
