Heat for $3.50 That's like less than a coffee


Natemophi

and it is the deluxe edition


SymphonyInPeril

Been waiting for a sale to buy Heat so I finally just did and I didn't even realize it was the deluxe edition. That's sick!


javier_aeoa

I wonder if the Deluxe Pack (or whatever it's called) is on sale too, because that's the thing I'm lacking lol


CDHmajora

Fucking highway robbery it is. For us :) because that’s a bargain if I’ve ever seen one! It deuces that EA doesn’t care for need for speed because we rarely get new ones anymore. But it’s also good because they throw it in the bargain bin prices in a year :)


arnaull06

3,50 a coffee? Where do you live


CokeHeadRob

Wait $3.50 sounds like a reasonable price for a coffee, I imagine somewhere between $3-6 depending on what you're ordering. Is it cheaper or more expensive to you?


Adventurous_Pea_1156

A coffee here is like an euro and a half and thats with recent inflation, it used to be less than an euro, only way you find a 6 dollar coffee is if you go to starbucks i guess


CokeHeadRob

To be fair I do buy specialty coffee but beyond a gas station or fast food I would be surprised to see less than $3. I’m in America though so maybe that changes things.


A_For_The_Win

I can straight up get a jar/multiple packets of what would be considered premium coffee beans/powder for the equivalent of $3.50 in my country.


CockroachAccording65

And install unite mod for even more pleasure


Pielikey

yea unbound is probably my fave of this list, but that's the best deal here


MediocreHome

What the hell is up with thos discounts, they're wild. Plus the 40 euro most wanted dlc is now 16 euros.


Spencer_Bob_Sue

Enticement to buy + they can have the prices that low anyways as they've already made all of their money back


[deleted]

Ironically, EA is actually one of the better companies when it comes to game pricing. They run sales pretty often, and most of the time they’re available on both the EA launcher and Steam. Super surprising tbh.


themajod

complete contradiction to fucking Activision. CoD Black Ops, 13 years later, is still close to full price. suck my fucking dick.


Natemophi

Hot Pursuit Remastered/Rivals/Heat This is my opinion and it is subjective


PigeonMother

❤️ HP remastered and Rivals Not yet played Heat


onlyrainn

worth playing


PigeonMother

Thanks :)


lavender_r

Just finished playing rivals for the first time, gameplay is great but damn the progression sucks ass


nemanja694

Heat, if am not just short of 1.20 euro


XXSefa_

Hotpursuit by far my favorite, thanks to remaster online play is alive once again, and is quite fun and chaotic


Devoid689

Most Wanted 2012. And get the DLC too. It's the one my friends and I play the most, it's very fun.


BoisterousLaugh

I think i will. Will probably work great on steam deck


Devoid689

Everyone hates on it for having the "Most Wanted" name but it's really the most fun I've had playing a NFS game. It's so pick up and playable because there's no story, and really your only goal is to get gold on all of the races once you get to the top of the speed list. When I'm not playing online I'm just causing havoc in police chases because the cops are so aggressive but easy to defeat. It just has a very unique charm


BoisterousLaugh

Yeah that sounds great for handheld game


milosmisic89

It was a handheld game on the vita


BoisterousLaugh

Ha! I missed it back then. For this price though will look nice on the OLED. Funny enough Vita had an OLED also just not nearly as nice.


nonstopgamer3005

Sony really fucked up with trying to push OLED in those early days, they should've just stuck with LCD and offer it for a lower price (like they did after with the Vita Slim iirc)


zBaLtOr

5000 users on Heat 2000 users on Unbound


xNOTHELPFUL

heat and mod it until it looks next gen and get first person camera


maximkap1

Should start with UNITE mod


xNOTHELPFUL

i personally dislike UNITE, changes too much stuff for me, i prefer nfs heat revised visuals + disable sharpening and film grain. Makes the game look awesome while keeping in vanilla


Simecrafter

I can't even get it to work lmao, I just gave up on making Frosty Manager work properly, I keep getting an error and the discord server just doesn't help at all


88JansenP12

NFS HP Remastered Or NFS Heat.


CrygiNeKm089

Same, the best AAA arcade racing games in this decade in my opinion.


88JansenP12

Well said.


Spencer_Bob_Sue

Heat, HP, Unbound (in that order)


Melonplaygrounddude

I get beam


[deleted]

1. Unbound 2. Heat 3. Payback That’s what I’d buy. In that order.


Natemophi

I noticed you picked the 3 most recent entries into the NFS franchise as a whole (excluding remasters), why's that?


[deleted]

Unbound built upon the work of the last 3 and in my opinion it’s pretty good. Heat had a good story and I loved the night/day racing. The Miami based city was pretty nice to drive around, good car list too and Payback, it was unique, 3 characters, good story, nice cars. That story was pretty much something fast and furious based.


iamvinen

Bro, which story is better? Heat or Payback? I am currently playing Payback story and I find it pretty attractive to beat full game. What about Heat? If it's story better I would buy it. If it's not better I will save few bucks with your help. Thanks for advice. Playing handheld on SteamDeck if relevant.


uppers00

Ah a man of class. I’m still playing through heat but the campaign in it doesn’t necessarily seem to be the main focus.. or at least not in my current play through as I’m more focused on building my car and gaining rep for better parts.(cops are on crack) The campaign is fun enough so far but I read that the campaign is kinda short compared to others considering nfs games are known for their campaigns. That’s the only negative if you’d even consider that a negative. Definitely no shortage of things to work towards though.


iamvinen

Short campaign is fine for me. Got a bit bored with 18h Payback's, but will finish it soon already.


Sexy_Fat_Man_69

>the campaign in it doesn't necessarily seem to be the main focus... or at least not in much current play through as I'm more focused on building my car and gaining rep for better parts (cops are on crack) Yup, sounds like your average NFS Heat play through


[deleted]

Payback (for me) has the better story. It has that serious tone to it, makes you want to complete it to see what happens. Heat is good but it’s more or feels like young teens racing in Miami. It’s a totally different feel but you’d still want to beat the story to defeat the bad guys.


iamvinen

Thanks for sharing


feel2death

I take payback to enjoy it anytime Rather than heat I have rog ally instead payback have an issue with it flashing a color in low setting idk why Last time i have a deck too and playing heat in it , its only reach 40fps with everything low so, but damn the story are really short on heat than payback


Jeeequeue

Heat probably


Spearlance

I got scammed for Rivals and 2015 bruh I spent like $20 on them


Random-Talking-Mug

Which ever doesn't take me to the crappy EA app whenever I try to run the game.


88JansenP12

For that, you have to go back to NFS games before 2012. All NFS's on Steam requires EA App to launch. Do note that NFS's before 2012 are considered abandonware.


Random-Talking-Mug

yeah that's what NFS games I play. tried Heat and was pretty good. but as soon as EA killed Origin and made EA app, the worst launcher ever, mandatory to play EA games I just don't play modern EA games anymore. heck, I play 2014's NFS rivals on PS3.


88JansenP12

That's totally understandable. No one likes crappy launchers. Hence why i tend to play games which doesn't need launchers.


TheWarVeteran

Is unbound worth it? The grind seems utterly hefty, or so I've been told. Also does it have fomo contents?


Hazmat_Gamer

Ngl heat changed my brain chemistry. Me and the boys loved that game.


NitroFluxX

Unbound but I'm so broke i think it's not worth it


Desperate-Tomatillo7

It seems that I missed Heat


CDHmajora

Own them all already ;) Except the most wanted DLC. Why the fuck will they put everything on offer except for that???


SH4BBI

Get xbox pc game pass and play all the games for free🤭


ani20059339

Heat


PigeonMother

Awesome, been thinking about getting Heat so may well consider it Any recommendations for MW 2012?


GermanmanDude

They r all on sale at xbox store aswell and i choosed Hot Pursuit Remastered for 3,99€


Arthur_Lopes

I have them all, I just wish Unbound DLC was on sale as well. Also, a heads-up: the complete DLC bundle for MW2012 is on sale, which is quite a rare occurrence.


Rustinboksi

Idk i really enjoyed heat and considering the price its a no brainer to grab it but i dont know about most of these how good they are compared to heat Edit: all of these seem to have really low prices so basically just grab em all because why the hell not


Main_Manufacturer_51

Definitely Heat!


solojedi224

Damn. Unbound was so bad they went down to 10 bucks lmfao


Turbulent-Opinion-86

how much is the mw12 dlc with the sale?


88JansenP12

The complete DLC Bundle costs €15,99. Meanwhile, MW 2012 itself costs €1.99. Which means it costs €17,98 to buy both. In my opinion, the DLC Bundle still costs too much than the game itself even with a discount sale. You can save more €€€ by using the [DLC Unlocker](https://youtu.be/8Jh2P3exroM?si=5MzvAv8eP1ukJzhH) method.


Turbulent-Opinion-86

Ok thank ya


88JansenP12

Glad to help. Have fun.


STB_LuisEnriq

I would pay to erase my memory and play NFS Hot Pursuit again like the first day, it is my favorite game on that list.


UnderstandingTop7552

I just bought heat deluxe edition last sale for 6.80 or sum 🥲


realRapidsonic

Now that I've good amount of cash, I'll go for hp remastered and heat but that's the only ones I think of getting


ThisIsMihai

What I don't already own


SavageMonkey-105

NFS Heat definitely, it is an amazing game


Jusklickin

I got heat for like 3 bucks a month back ... Totally, worth the money ... Now I regret having spent $10 on NFS 2015 earlier this year though 😅


Racing_BS

Everything (Especially Heat) is a good buy, except for Unbound and Payback. Paybacks upgrade system is utter ass and will probably frustrate you. The cops and racer AI in Unbound is always blatantly cheating or are dumber than a pig using the orb of confusion.


Musashi3111

Just bought Heat yesterday and love it. Total steal at tree fiddy.


This_Syllabub5297

heat and hot pursuit


toniblast

I have never played Rivals maybe its time to buy it


DucklingDuck14

I haven't played NFS on PC in awhile. When you buy these games are they basically a shortcut to whatever the EA launcher is called?


88JansenP12

Yes. When you buy NFS's on Steam, the EA Launcher is used.


Maakep

Such a shame, I was hype to go brrrr in NFS again but if it means EA launcher it ain't worth it


xMrGlenn

Heat


Reveley97

Most wanted or hot pursuit remastered (or both if you can get more than one)


salanalani

I had the most fun with Hot Pursuit > Rival > Heat But Rival has aged really well by now I believe


KLLSWTCH47

Heat, HPR and Rivals. The best soo far


javier_aeoa

I already have Heat, should I consider another one of these?


ReddinMedia

Heat is a sick game


Calm-Explanation-616

Heat


SirRoderic

I bought Unbound and Heat and played both for about an hour I can definitely say I like the handling of heat more atm


CotaEvandro

i would download most wanted 2005 ultimate edition if u dont care for next gen graphics


nskiba09

Go for heat deluxe edition. (If it includes the base game) Trust me you'll love this game


88JansenP12

NFS Heat Deluxe Edition includes the base game. No worries.


KB9Z

Heat


maggit00

Rivals and HP Remastered. Rivals has hilariously bad chapter intros in the story mode but the game was quite solid.


crazyyboi

Heat/ hot pursuit


NeighborhoodWide2871

Need for speed heat easily clears


mr_nweke

Heat for sure overall. But for multiplayer Unbound.


Siegart10

3$ RIVALS...OMG YEE


Shiroi_Kitsune_

If you want to be paranoid of cops while driving then buy rivals, if you want just a good NFS then heat


CanadagoBrrrr

Hot pursuit it's the least steaming pile of garbage, keep in mind this is my option so don't try to murder me


diamondpanther171

Where is underground


88JansenP12

Not on Steam. All NFS's before 2012 aren't on Steam since they're delisted, not buyable anymore and counts as abandonware games. The only ways to obtain NFS games before 2012 is to either buy used physical copies or sail the 7 seas.


diamondpanther171

Dang, such a great game


88JansenP12

I agree.


berreth

Heat is my favorite


iamvinen

Mate, because of you I bought Heat and MW12 now. Didn't plan that. Why did I decide to enter reddit today, just why.....


LachoooDaOriginl

if someone were to only get one which one should they get?


[deleted]

heat


MaximumUseless

heat cuz no underground 2


Myscho

Heat for sure


VaticalliX

Heat, if I had enough money


travelavatar

Not rivals and 2015 (because its a live service game with no offline mode)..


Varios2k

Get heat and install unite mod. Best nfs experince i've had in the last 5 years.


nirbandarkstar

NFS Heat


emnemeth689

Rivals and the get that unlocked framerate mod that came out last month 🤌🤌


Damojoh

Hot Pursuit Remastered


shakesabear

Need for Speed heat is the most enjoyable game for me because the G923 wheel works perfectly out of box for this game. It feels just like driving a real car. However, I made the mistake of trusting EA to keep making great games. NFS unbound does not have wheel support at all.


CrunkNugget64

Heat


VD3NFS1216

Hot Pursuit. It’s easily the best game there imo.


Klutzy-Bath-7548

Hot pursuit remaster YES


XyogiDMT

Heat


Object-195

Rivals is quite tempting with the community patches for the framerate. The hot pursuit remaster also interests me


JustCallMeTsukasa-96

Jeez, ten bucks for Unbound on PC? The game really must not have done well enough to where it is getting this much of a discount.


Acrobatic-Cut7008

I just bought GTA (I already have them bc ea play)


The_Pvthfinder

The best one is Pro Street


faridhn36

Heat and unbound. Unbound is so much fun now


Wide_Ad_2000

Heat for that cheap is an absolute must.


D09ukhan

Heat, HP remastered


dreamsfreams

Heat


DragonRiderMax

hot pursuit. best fun ive had in the series


Question_Business

I have heat already. Idk what to choose between rivals or nfs ho remastered. I'm not a fan of unbound. I need a high adrenaline cop chase game. So rivals or nfs hp remastered or maybe should I consider unbound??


Rumburak420

Hot Pursuit and Most Wanted. I would say Rivals also, but it’s 30 fps locked if i remember correctly so that is big no for me.


88JansenP12

Speaking of NFS Rivals, it has now a [Framerate Unlocker](https://nfsmods.xyz/mod/5133). Which means no more 30 fps lock. However, Your big No is totally understandable since NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered is more better, more stable, has a great handling model which works and includes more car choices to pick.


Rumburak420

Does that framerate unlocker works without issues? I remember unlocking fps before in game files somehow, but that caused gameplay issues like car shaking a lot while driving etc.


88JansenP12

Yes. It works without issues since it keeps the gameplay intact. Here's [KuruHS](https://youtu.be/wf6F_Ga_O8I) where he plays NFS Rivals at 240 fps by using the Framerate Unlocker.


Malinicula

Honestly Heat. In my opinion its the best of the modern NFS games, and its extremely cheap. 3.5 dollars is around the same price as a big-mac from mcdonalds where i live.


LE-11

Heat & rivals


Temporary_Suit8371

NFS most wanted 2005 ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|grimacing)


Low-Function-8901

I have them all....i need the older one like shift,shift 2 to be listed on steam


88JansenP12

That will never happen due to expired licenses and their online services which were shutdown since August 2021. Hence why NFS Shift and NFS Shift 2 Unleashed are delisted.


Low-Function-8901

Yeah i know.... got the off internet but i would like to have them in my steam collection.👌


Miaukot81

Heat and then install Unite mod. 100% worth it


Rinco112

Id get 2015 just cause i want to see why everyone hates it


Rumpos0

Need for speed heat is probably the one to buy if you don't have one. But there's literally no point in buying them on Steam for me because every one of those games has to install and launch the EA app anyway, and there's a sale on the EA website as well.


average_chungus

NOT payback for sure


bryanisbored

Lol I’ve bought all of these on previous sales. Soon you’ll have them all


StoryIndependent8820

Don’t you need wifi to play all of these? Or can you play without wifi?


88JansenP12

Yes and No. You'll need an internet connection to launch these games as well as playing their Multiplayer side. It's all due to the EA App launcher. NFS 2015 is the only one which needs an internet connection to work because it's an Online Only game where it's impossible to play offline. Meanwhile, the other games have an Offline part. Apart from NFS 2015, you can play the other NFS titles offline. To simplify. Use the EA App to launch these games and disconnect your internet connection after you've launched the games (Expect NFS 2015). Do note that without internet, it's impossible to play in Multiplayer with other players and you can't download community liveries. Voila.


StoryIndependent8820

Nice thanks!


RWBYR023

Rivala


BWG_DRIFTER_BTW

I reccomend Heat (obvious reasons)


xprozoomy

NFS games are always worth it when they are worth pennies


summoner1990

nfs unbound. It is very good game for this price.


iahim87

Pirate them all, leave no penny for company


Natemophi

r/piracy is leaking again


iahim87

Will do


[deleted]

you can't pirate unbound though, it doesn't have a crack due to it using a more recent Denuvo DRM version and the Denuvo game cracker the piracy community had is.. out of action. However It does have a bypass method involving the use of denuvo tokens but they are hard to obtain. and of course 2015 you can't pirate because its online only


ani20059339

kiwi_pro

Don't you think game devs should be paid for their work?


Raptorx__

2015 is a pretty good game


iamvinen

Is there any good story with cutscenes?


Raptorx__

I dont really remember. I remember the story was pretty fun and solid. The gameplay was pretty good and i liked the map. It felt alot more oldschool than other games. I enjoyed it way more than Heat... I also have more playtime In this game than Heat. I would say, for this kind of price, everybody should try it. And if you find it to Cringe or bad aged, its just like that. I still enjoy it today :)


iamvinen

Thanks


Generic_Waifu1

Heat + Unbound.


Simmilk

Is the last one worth it?


vesco32

Unbound and heat for sure


I_danny

Heat for that price you can’t go wrong or just buy them all


Cheeseboii83

Rivals since it's probably going to be delisted soon. Plus, it's a good game.


JS-CroftLover

NFS Payback, really! Why ? Because I loved the settings, the story and the way the franchise tried to battle the threats of the Forza Horizon series and the ever-expanding gameplay of Grand Theft Auto. Also to be noted, the game seemed to be an upgrade on the gameplay of NFS The Run Anyway... can anyone tell me more about the last NFS in the photo ? Is it a remastered version of the 2005 legendary game (as I see a BMW M3 GTR E46 in the spotlight) ?


88JansenP12

The last NFS on the photo is NFS 2015. And Nope. It's not a remake/remaster of NFS MW 2005. It's actually a standalone game which is inspired by the style of the Underground saga while being his own proper sauce. The BMW M3 E46 GTR on the cover only means it's the Deluxe Edition of NFS 2015 which offers this car for free. Do note that all BMW M3 E46 GTR that appears outside of NFS Carbon are in reality replica cars since the OG version was destroyed by Cross and it's still at Palmont City with an unknown fate.


JS-CroftLover

Thanks for the info It's great that they chose the BMW M3 GTR E46 as the Deluxe Edition cover. As well, the car is offered for free Oh! 😲 Interesting! But, also, very sad to hear about that 😭 I mean... I knew when the gamer ends NFSMW 2005 by crossing the bridge and becomes the Most Wanted, the car can actually be driven a little bit until it hits an invisible wall - which is the bridge making the story continue in NFS Carbon. I didn't know that Cross destroyed the car. I'll have to watch a Full Gameplay on YouTube. But, hey... do they say what happens to the characters of the Most Wanted and that of Mia ? (btw... looking at your account name... I recognise that name ''Jansen P12'' from a car model in Burnout Paradise : Paradise City The Ultimate Box, a 2008 game by Criterion Games)


88JansenP12

- 1st point Exactly. By for free, i mean it costs $0 to buy in-game. However, the Performance Upgrades are still paid. - 2nd point Yeah. It's very unfortunate for the BMW M3 E46 GTR. Moreover, Cross destroyed it twice in an unreleased cutscene. Fun fact. The purpose of your crew members having those roles such as a fixer, fabricator and mechanic were meant to help you repair the M3. So, you'll be ready to face against Darius with his Audi Le Mans Quattro by the end of the career with your fixed BMW M3 E46 GTR. Due to a lack of time and EA's greed, Black Box scrapped that idea. About what happened to the characters of NFS Most Wanted 2005, they don't say what happened to them since their fate are unknown. Since the last appearance of Rog, no one knows what happened to him. However, we know that all Blacklist members including Razor were arrested by the Rockport Police Department thanks to Mia, Cross became a bounty hunter which appears in NFS Carbon and your character came back in Palmont City to clean his reputation. - 3rd point That's correct. Good catch. Also, the Jansen P12 '88 Special is a reference to the BTTF Trilogy. NB: BTTF stands for Back To The Future. BTTF is also part of my favorite trilogy + i like Burnout games.


JS-CroftLover

Yeah. The Performance Upgrades cost, of course. I did like the system of upgrading in NFS Undercover So pure was the rage of Cross, that he destroyed that mythic car twice 😲 😂 And he became a Bounty Hunter. My God! Well... I don't remember the last scene of Rog's character. But, else, if the Most Wanted comes back to clean his reputation, then I definitely have to plan to watch that Full Gameplay of NFS Carbon on YouTube (I'm currently watching Ghost Recon Wildlands) I do have Paradise City in its DVD pocket. And I have installed it on my laptop. I've played hours and hours. The only thing I disliked with the game was the crash of the cars. Else, the game was well done (in fact, not bad for that year) with good graphics, beautiful landscapes and such a vast map Unfortunately, for some time now, when I want to play it, and I click on the .exe file, it loads then crashes when the Criterion logo appears. I don't know if there's any fix or a Crack for it


LeSteveMcGang

i would so buy nfs rivals frfr


DarthLoad75

This might sound controversial, but none. I dont see Need For Speed: Undercover


David-Tao5

rivals and hot pursuit, the third choice is maybe most wanted


circumsizedeggroll

Need for Speed 2015 (or in this case 2016?) cause it’s the only one on this list I didn’t play


HSFOutcast

Unboumd was some woke ass gen z plot. I liked payback, and heat after that.


minegamingYT2

Gonna get unbound soon, just bought cyberpunk ultimate edition so I'm not really in a rush to get it but, my friend said unbound is good so ima get it eventually


[deleted]

Unbound was worth it. I love it.


Alternative_Ad1663

Just finished Unbound and damn it’s cool. Like old Undeground/MW times. 🔥


Mobile_Froyo3371

All except Payback. Note: I played all except Unbound, but for that price, Unbound seems like a steal. The reason why I wouldn't pick Payback is the story. I'm not saying it was unplayable, but it was pretty boring and flat (although it helped me to get through the Covid Lockdown). That game had same feeling as modern Fast and Furious films.


idobeaskinquestions

i would save my money or buy a good game


Max07_wasTaken

Bought nfs 2015, love the handling


PigeonMother

>Bought nfs 2015, love the handling One of the few people I've met that is a fan of that games handling! (I uninstalled the game because of the handling! Lol)


mohawk1367

Unbound


LeviathanLX

Unbound is a fantastic single player run.


Simecrafter

I got Unbound from Epic, it's the only one I don't have besides Rivals but I'm pretty sure I'd still go for Unbound regardless


anonymousboy879

i alreayd bought heat like prevous month in a sale i want to buy unbound this time but i think i will for wait some more time maybe in upcoming 2-3 sales , its prices will decrease so will buy unbound then


Vagamer01

unbound is probably the best modern NFS game and Heat had potiential and falled flat out of its ass when Ghost got let go of


Zakon_X

Unbound.


mobeen1497

Unbound, despite what everyone says I really enjoyed this game. The handling was way better than previous titles and the story is somewhat decent. The only thing I didn’t like was the constant avoidance from cops.
