Percentage of Votes: 46.68%

"The Need For Speed series from Electronic Arts has become something of a gaming institution. Ever since the first Need for Speed, gamers have looked forward to the sequels for the best in racing action. NFS2 came out a few years later but it lacked the improvements everyone expected. Then NFS2 Special Edition came out and everyone's expectations were fulfilled. But now it's been a few years since we've had a totally new NFS - and it's finally here. "
