Actually, I'm a big fan of "Need for Speed" series and from the very beginning. Unfortunately, I no longer have as much time to sit for hours in front of the console, so it is annoying when you start the game and has to wait for a server connection up to 10 minutes. And even if one has then even started a game, it does not mean that you can finish it in peace because it often occurs to regularly that the connection to the server. Annoying because all the "speed points", upgrades and achievements are thus simply gone. Stupid if you take the time and had spent a couple of hours before the box! The graphics in the game is of course outstanding and the use of voice commands via Kniect makes the gaming experience when it comes time because so far, perfect. Nevertheless, it happens often that Kinect interpreted any noise as a command and makes funny things; especially nice is looking back (camera movement around the car) in the midst of a car chase. Too bad, unfortunately it has EA again managed to impose a great game in the sand, so there are only 2 of 5 stars!
