NFS:
Also Know as Need For Speed, Need for Speed is a long-running and popular racing video game series developed by various studios and published by Electronic Arts (EA). The series began in 1994 with the release of "The Need for Speed" and has since become one of the most successful and iconic racing franchises in the gaming industry.
The games in the Need for Speed series typically involve high-speed street racing, exotic cars, and police pursuits. Players take on the role of a street racer and compete in various events, races, and challenges to earn money, unlock new cars, and progress through the game's storyline.
Over the years, the Need for Speed series has seen many iterations and spin-offs, each offering its own unique features and gameplay mechanics. Some notable titles in the series include "Need for Speed: Underground," which introduced extensive car customization and underground street racing culture, and "Need for Speed: Most Wanted," which featured intense police chases and an open-world environment.
The series has also explored different themes and settings, such as the track-based racing in "Need for Speed: Shift" and the realistic simulation in "Need for Speed: Shift 2 Unleashed." Additionally, there have been collaborations with real-world car manufacturers, resulting in games like "Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed" and "Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit."
In recent years, the Need for Speed series has continued to evolve, incorporating elements of open-world exploration, online multiplayer, and cinematic storytelling. The most recent installment as of my knowledge cutoff in September 2021 was "Need for Speed Heat," released in November 2019.
