Most of the video games I’ve played were pretty good. The only one I can think of that I didn’t like was MySims Kingdom for the Nintendo DS. Dropped that pretty quickly. It was a long while ago, but I’ll guess it was because there were too many fetch quests and annoying controls.
I bought Unbound as one more desperate attempt to chase the love I had for the burnout series, and yeah…I hate the time limit thing. The driving is good enough (I still miss the frenetic arcadey driving of the burnout series), but I just want to race, not spend all my time assessing the risk and reward of every event.
I also hate the daytime/nighttime thing and just the cops in general. I don’t feel like NFS has ever figured out how to do the cops in a way that isn’t cheap and frustrating.
