Need for Speed: Payback Review

Do we need an introduction to this game? Popularly called as NFS, Need for speed payback is a racing game it is the twenty-third installment in the long and successful series.It is published by Electronic Arts and developed by ghost games. The recent games from Ea in the NFS series are not up to the mark. Let's see how this one goes.

Reborngamers Review :

NFS Payback starts with you as a driver who’s seeking revenge against an organization called “The house”  for a car which has been stolen from you after you have stolen it, from someone. The story is dumb, it is not engaging, it's not thrilling and it's just dull all the way from start to finish.This game’s developers have seen too much of the “Fast and the Furious” and have played too much burnout game. The good thing about payback is the world where players can drive around, it's huge and mostly well detailed.Players will find many opportunities to race like off-road races, drag races and drifting races.

This game is a simple arcade racer, it's that simple as that. It allows players to drift the car often than applying the brakes which is good. After you win a race you are rewarded with in-game currency and car upgrades cards. You can choose those cards to be sold, used on your car or send it to the garage for your another car.You also gain reputation by winning races.Customization of cars is available, as with other NFS titles it is just amazing, consistently NFS games motivates the customization of cars to the players choice, but you must visit the Tune shop for the ultimate upgrade to your car in this game.

The races in payback are not thrilling compared to its predecessor's success. The cop cars and enforcer cars just disable themselves by hitting you, mostly the player will wonder “How Did That Happen” when they see a cop car being wrecked. The AI is so dumb and dull, that makes the thrill of the game so low.Before each and every race it gives the recommended level of your car for that event which is good.You cant win that event if your car at least close to the recommended level.The visuals of the game are good, and the world looks gorgeous. Apart from that, there is no unique content in NFS Payback.

Verdict :

We are hardcore fans of the NFS Series its a  Disappointing installment to the most loved series. A Need for Speed game to forget and forgive.

Big and well-detailed world map

Car customization is satisfying

Arcade racing is fulfilling

Dull, dumb storyline

Racing is not thrilling

Simple gameplay and not engaging

F1 2017 Review

F1 2017 is a racing game published and developed by Codemasters. We have to say Codemasters have really become Masters in developing these racing games. The F1 2016 was an awesome game. Do you love F1, this game is definitely for you. If you are an F1 fan and want to experience the thrill of the racers, this is the game will bring you closer to that thrill.

Reborngamers Review :

So the basic things like saving your fuel, managing your tires, overtaking your opponents, its all just awesome in this game. The aspects of real f1, its rules and regulations all are implemented in this year’s edition. We must praise Codemasters for trying to mimic the real f1 into its game is just awesome and they have done a damn good job of it.

The games career mode begins with you as a Second seat driver (a racing company has two drivers while competing) for any team of your choosing, be it the Legendary Ferrari or the Rival Mclaren to Force India the choice is yours to make. You will be able to choose the length of the races determining how much Laps you want to race in your season. The minimum is 5 laps but try to go with at least 25% of the racing distance so you can experience the F1 thrill ride like dynamic weather, safety cars when your opponents make errors or to experience the pit strategies.

This game is definitely not about you being a driver alone and racing your opponents, No. You have to manage your car by determining which engine you want to race with or tires. Micro- Management is the key to this game.If you are a hardcore F1 fan this game will amaze you with its precise technical details, if you are just a racing fan who wants to race this one will make you confused.

So in the career mode, you will be given resource points for upgrading your car and your team by completing practice programmes or by putting a strong performance in qualifying and racing sessions. There is an R&D skill tree where you can make your upgrades. Decision making is very important in this game. Setting up your car is the main thing to do before a race you have to manage all the aspects of it. After setting up your car, you qualify for the race and try to win it.(the same old F1 stuff). With the usual f1 new cars this game features the classic f1 cars also, but the classic ones lack the depth and detail which the new cars offer.

This game is visually stunning, this game is so good is graphics, you will surely experience the tracks which are in f1 season to the best. The details and depth of the environment, the tracks, and the cars are just mind-blowing, it has an amazing dynamic weather system everything about this game is top notch. Codemasters have tried to give players the realistic experience of f1 which is so commendable.

Verdict :

This must be on your playlist if you are an f1 fan. This game is a real winner among f1 fans.

Expanded and unmatchable career mode

The AI is competitive

Realistic kind of thrill

A visual treat for a f1 fan

Not much appreciation for the player winning a championship
