Your top 10 NFS List

My list:
1. NFS Carbon
2. NFS Most Wanted (both 2005 & 2012)
3. NFS Hot Pursuit (2010)
4. NFS The Run
5. NFS Rivals
6. NFS Undercover
7. NFS Underground 2
8. NFS Underground
9. NFS Pro Street
10. Shift 2 Unleashed

But what if he likes both as much...? However, they are pretty similar, the career process has the same main core features: You have to beat a top driver list of the Most Wanted street racers to become #1 and the Most Wanted.Both involved intense pursuits.It just the 2012 Edition has no cut scene driven story, but skip the sequences in MW 05 and have the same result.

1. NFS Hot Pursuit (and Motor City Online)
2. NFS Hot Pursuit 2 (PS2, PC)
3. NFS Underground
4. NFS Carbon
5. NFS III Hot Pursuit / IV High Stakes
6. NFS Underground 2
7. NFS The Run 
8. NFS Pro Street
9. NFS Undercover
10.R&T Present: The Need for Speed Special Edition

Some may wonder why's there's no NFS Most Wanted, the thing's the game's good but it's not like that good and on the other hand I hardly can really run down such a list for NFS as it always depends on the actual interest - unlike in sports games (there the basics are the same) these games are often very different to each other (e.g. Underground and Hot Pursuit) have nothing alike.It's easier to say which would be the greatest of choice, so even tho I don't really like tuners, the Underground-Series was great and along with Hot Pursuit-Series those are on top.

10. NFS Pro Street
9. NFS Most Wanted '12
8. NFS Hot Pursuit 2
7. Shift 2 Unleashed
6. NFS Rivals
5. NFS World
4. NFS Undercover
3. NFS The Run: the storyline impressed me a lot.
2. NFS Carbon: especially for canyons and muscles.
1. NFS Most Wanted: bmw m3 gtr and storyline.

I can do 4 (have played quite a few other NFSs, but can't really position them):

4- Need for Speed Underground 2
Yes, it is a huge grind to complete, and yes, the physics suck, but its HARD to not like this game. There has never been better (or truer) ricing in a game. You can make your car ugly as hell, the sexiest thing alive, a street machine, in this game, you can do it. You can even map your ECU (and turbos)! And, although some may disagree, the races were fun because the map was good, and the physics are rather amusing when toyed with. I also liked the NOS (yes this matters to me) in this game better than in any other NFS: it felt REAL-the screen shook, things got blurry, speedo going past 200, it even had intensity sound effects. It wasn't like most of the other games, were it feels like an itty-bitty boost to use constantly, NO, it isn't, and Underground 2 fixed this, making NOS feel authentic and goooood. Overall good experience.

3- Need for Speed Hot Pursuit (2010)
I still play this game quite a bit. It does have quite a bit of rubber-banding, but I don't see why people dislike it because it does make racing feel a bit 'better' in a sense (although unrealistic, because my McLaren F1 goes faster than a Veyron. Also the game put all the Veyrons in the podium positions, it was annoying). But rubber-banding isn't meant to deteriorate from the game, it is meant to add on, and I think it did that in this game, no matter how excessive it was. Although the online bands were 'a bit' over-the-top (infinite NOS in last place FTW /s). Still, a very entertaining game. And I don't care about E-Z drifting straight roads or not, as long as the handling model is fun, I work with it. Don't forget about the Zonda Cinque either I kinda overly love that car, along with a good range of exotic cars. Hot pursuit really was a very good game.

2- Need for Speed Prostreet
I can't understand why, but this game is freaking addicting and kinda like a fish hook covered in glue. Maybe it comes from speed challenges, a racing experience no other game has ever quite been able to capture, or maybe it was the damage model, unmatched by any other game I have played. This game is SO fun, it should be at the top of my list, but it isn't. Why? Bugs. Bugs EVERYWHERE. Bugged tracks? Yes. Bugged barriers? Yes. Near-every single car in the game bugged? Yes. Including the Supra? Yes. Too many bugs to list. It was still a greatly fun game at least.

A good list.

My list! And features rating of games that I've played and what do I think about they.

10. Rivals [2.0]
 
Rented for a while. Expectations to be higher than HP'10 (as High Stakes was with HP'98) were gone forever. This game is so overrated that it features: tons of glitches, quality and quantity are very low (e.g. car list both sides) the game seems to be a PS2 game released for next-gen consoles and the soundtrack lack very much of action/energy songs (how can Pompeii give you confidence to drive at high speed?). However the concept of the game of cop vs. racer but it wasn't executed very well. 


9. ProStreet [2.5]
 
Well, the concept of simulator worked better with Shift. Black Box could re-apply the real damage a great list of cars and real upgrades, but for being a simulator, this game is away to be one since it wasn't made correctly. 


8. Carbon [3.0]
 
People will complain about this why this is on eighteeth place. Ok, yes, I admit, Carbon is superior to MW and features great modes, the variety of the cars are bigger, the city is a bit more expense, challenge series are in a event tree and we have finally have canyons! My real cons are the car classification, non-career licensed (and not bonus) cars can be unlocked but can't be purchased, the career mode is lower than MW (I beat the career in two days while MW I had a week), MW pursuits were reduced into a cameo only, cars the fucking drag is absent and the story is very non-sense to me. With all those cons doesn't make the game less enjoyable.


7. Most Wanted (2012) [3.0]
 
yeah, it's Burnout Paradise 2 for some. It's a good attempt to mix the original MW with Burnout but, honestly, it gets boring over the time you play it most. Car jack spots, offline not 


6. Porsche Unleashed (PSX) [3.5] 
 
PSX version of the game is great. Not a masterpiece enough but is still funny to play.
 Tracks are great and even free-roamable! (not so much) factory drive concept shows you the basic of driving and the Porsche's history pre-2000 is interesting for somebody that like those cars.


5. Hot Pursuit (2010) [3.5]
 
Although I don't like the fact that Criterion didn't depart the drift from Burnout, lack of quick race and the Mario-Kart weapons rip-offs, it has a great game. A good variety of cars, a great and not boring place to race and the police chases are still great. 


4. Most Wanted (2005) [3.5]
 
Second best effort of Black Box. Although, the kind of the car list, damage, city size and textures and the fact that's inferior to Carbon just make it cliché. However, the pursuit is simply awesome, career mode and the missions make this game awesome.



3. Hot Pursuit (1998/PSX) [4.0]
 
Same as High Stakes. Although, the lack of police mode and the car list that just make it kinda inferior to PC version, it's still enjoyable.



2. High Stakes (PSX) [4.0]
 
Introducing career, car purchases and great pursuits, this was well made. It's inferior in quantity on the PC version but blasts everything in gameplay.



1. Hot Pursuit 2 (PS2) [4.5]
 
Probably the best effort of Black Box, epic chase, great tracks, playable police vehicles and fun. Part of the car list and and the physics didn't do well enough but the game does still rocks.



My opinion sentences get lower and please don't mind of them. Also, my apologies for grammar rush. And if there are other games missing is because I didn't play, don't want to talk about those or they're very poor of quality.
