Got it for 3.50€ on Steam in advance for Unbound. Wasn't even sure because I gave it already two chances and I couldn't bear with the controls, being used to modern, inertial physics on Forza Horizon or Wreckfest.

Luckily, the third time's the charm. It even reminded me of Most Wanted 2005 with its tank physics. Not the best, but something different and fun when you get the grip. I didn't play a newer NFS since Carbon/The Run and it felt much, much better than the PS2 era of games. This (thankfully) lacks that annoying rubberbanding and playing on normal difficulty was easy but enjoyable. Even the police wasn't much of a hastle, and I hated it back then. The story is not (and never was) its strenght but was entertaining nonetheless.

At this price, cannot say it was a bad purchase. Might even replay it someday in the future.
