The experience in Shift 2 Unleashed is similar to other games in the simulation genre, but there are quite a few differences that stand out: the level of detail included in the simulation, the tough opponent Artificial Intelligence, the amount of tweaks that can be made to a car and the way each track is broken down into sections that can be mastered independently.
Fastest car on need for speed shift 2 drivers#
The big issue that the new Need for Speed has is that it's difficult right from the start and that it might discourage more casual virtual drivers from spending too much time earning levels and discovering new events.įor anyone that knows the series, even if only by name, the concept behind Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed is pretty straightforward: player creates account, engages in racing, picks favorite car, tweaks performance, beats opponents, crashes hard, watches replay, gets creamed by superior opponents, learns new tricks, beats all computer opponents, shifts difficulty up. Shift 2 Unleashed is well put together, with a nice catalog of cars on offer, some very well built tracks, good intelligence for the other drivers, full implementation of the Autolog feature that debuted in the rebooted Hot Pursuit, a lot of options when it comes to modding cars and tweaking settings and enough events to keep a gamer occupied for more than one month as long as daily racing time is at about 2 hours. It does not take more than 2 or 3 races, all of them probably accompanied by quite a few restarts, to see that Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed is a serious racing sum, the kind of game that can lead to controllers being thrown in frustration and to loud curse words being uttered in the general direction of the other racers. Its absence makes me feel lost in an ocean of driving possibilities out of which I am only extracted by the sickening sound of crumpling against another concrete barrier. For me having it around means that I have a reliable way of judging my own driving decisions. Oh, what a difference the racing line makes.
