Need For Speed Games Ranked From Worst To Best

Need For Speed: Nitro Need For Speed: Nitro was a bit of an experiment for the franchise. The title released exclusively on Nintendo consoles (the Wii and DS specifically) in 2009 and aimed to make the Need for Speed brand "even more exciting"

Need For Speed: V-Rally 2 Need for Speed: V-Rally 2 may not seem familiar to a lot of players, thanks to its unconventional titling and focus on Rally racing. The release dropped in 1999 for the PlayStation and would release again in 2000 for the Dreamcast.

Need For Speed: The Run In 2011, the Need for Speed franchise took a stab at creating a story-based adventure, unlike anything they'd created in the past.

Need For Speed: Heat Need For Speed: Heat marks the latest entry in the franchise, bringing the total number of games to an impressive 24. At first glance, Heat seems like a formula for absolute success, with incredible visuals, tight driving mechanics

Need For Speed: ProStreet The series tried to go for both an arcade-style and a simulation for this ProStreet, resulting in a bit of a mess in the final product. Things are tighter in the game, as the focus is more on the legal side of racing, which doesn’t exactly translate into the “fun” side of things.

Need For Speed 2 Back in the day, there could be no cooler game than Need for Speed 2. The title didn’t have a great campaign mode or the most creative flair, but it made up for all that with flash and style. Not to mention the abundance of cars and tracks to race on.

Need for Speed: Rivals It wouldn't be out of the ordinary to compare Need For Speed: Rivals to Burnout Paradise. Both games have cinematic crashes, and both games are open-world.
