Nonetheless the series has been in a rough spot recently and I just wanted to put my thoughts out there from someone who considers themselves a “hardcore” need for speed fan. Need for speed needs to recapture its identity soon or I’m afraid there will be no arcade racers left. This is a video I wanted to make for many years and I’m grateful for all the new subscribers since my last upload. Hopefully this follow up video is a solid one !
