In that aspect, NFS: Payback accomplishes everything it has set out to be. It just wants to provide fun and adrenaline pumping excitement for the user. In a release season that has witnessed some incredible sim-racing titles hit the market, it’s nice to actually sit down with a game that doesn’t require absolute precision and focus. Not only does it require developers to create amazing race sequences while casting real-world physics aside, it also requires them to provide a decent story and characters we love - or can at least learn to love.Īt times the NFS series has come oh so close to nailing that trio of requirements, now the question is does NFS: Payback finally pull the series across the finish line in first, or leave us broken down on the streets with a blown engine? Gameplay Who could blame a development company for trying to capture and give the user the opportunity and excitement to feel like they are part of Dominic Toretto’s crew? In theory it’s an awesome idea, but an idea nonetheless that is not so easy to pull off. These days when you strap in and sit down with an arcade racer such as NFS Payback, it’s almost impossible not to associate it with the long running Fast and the Furious series, and rightfully so.
