An open-world online-only racer with kilometres and kilometres of recreated America to drive through. This is no doubt the game's strength, with a number of cities across America to visit including LA, Chicago, Detroit and Seattle to name a few. The gameplay itself goes well enough. It feels somewhat like Need for Speed: Most Wanted with police chases and modification of cars being features. While there is a lot of A-B driving to go to the location of the next mission before fast travel is available, on the road you'll find lots of challenges (speed, slalom, jumping, racing line accuracy) which makes the trips go faster. As with a number of online-dependent games I've played, I don't understand it here either. Why must I need to be online to race against AI? Actually, when beginning a mission and asking for a fellow human being to join me, I have often been unsuccessful. I have rarely been able to play a PVP race either. Another negative feature is the graphics. They are not bad by any means but they don't look like PS4 quality to me. (edit-major updates did improve this). In terms of the difficulty, it's not a game that is too difficult if your car/s are at the right level. The most challenging events for me were without a doubt the chase missions, where damaging the car in front can be frustrating (that damn prison bus)!!! Worth trying if you like open-world arcade racers. Gameplay 3.5/5 Graphics 3.5/5 Sound 3.5/5 Difficulty 4/5 Originality 2.5/5
