Hell must have frozen over, because, believe it or not, there's been a Need for Speed title created that's actually very good – Need for Speed: Shift is probably one of the best racing games in 2009. I think I need a lie down!…

The change to simulation racing and realistic drifting from arcade racing has been a good decision, as the cars feel a lot better than before. The stupid "street racing" formula has been removed as well, with emphasis going on a true driving experience (why they couldn't have done it sooner, I don't know).
