Need for Speed: Heat






Normally I'd take this moment to write up a nice little promo for the game I've just fixed, but in this case I've got some seriously mixed feelings about this game, and have lost my enthusiasm for even making a proper post here. For starters, I absolutely hate working with this engine, despite DHR's universal fix existing to fix a lot of the issues, the remaining issues are beyond a headache and a hassle to track down and fix, and after losing countless hours trying and having standard tools and techniques fail I eventually became resigned to not caring about fixing what's left. Secondly a lot of the game's, shall we say, "charisma" rubs me the wrong way. On the positive side of things, the actual gameplay itself is pretty decent. If I wasn't so annoyed and jaded (and perhaps the soundtrack was more to my liking) I could see myself enjoying this quite a bit, so hopefully some of you will enjoy it more in my stead.
