After playing the game for about three hours and have figured out the new features of the game. It has a new drifting option which is clever. When you come into a turn too fast, you can hit a button that will put the game into slow motion around the turn so you have plenty of time to adjust your car to make the turn. Then when your car is aligned the right way, you can push the button again to resume in natural time. The modifications that you can make to your car also go way more in depth than in any other Need for Speed. Also, the game tells you how much of it you have completed so far. I have only completed 6%, but this makes beating the game feel more like an accomplishment. All in all I think this is a great game and recommend anyone who likes racing games to check this one out.

Good entry. Great description of the new addition. Next time though you should try to compare it to past games, like what would happen if you didn't have drift in the older games. If you haven't played the older games that's fine just say so. Try to compare the game to any others. How is this racing game different then, let's say mario. The objective of these logs is to try and get you to look at games critically, and you are going in a very good direction.
