Demona shoots Elisa with a poisoned dart, blackmailing Goliath's clan into aiding her in exchange for the antidote. This gives players a feel that they have an effect on the world, a mechanic that Need For Speed games do well.* Subverted in ''WesternAnimation/''. As players rank up, police and other racers will act much differently. The higher this ranking, the more notoriety the player will have. Much like in other Need For Speed games, players move up a rank called the Blacklist. Unlike Need For Speed: Heat, which has players exposing the corruption of the police force, Need For Speed: Most Wanted tells a story of getting revenge and hurting the task force's efforts to get rid of illegal street racing. RELATED: The Best Video Game Reboots Of The Decade (According To Metacritic) It's a good reason why fans want that version remastered the most. Need For Speed: Most Wanted, more specifically the 2005 version, has probably one of the best stories in the Need For Speed series. Some are great, and others not so much, but regardless, the reboots allow a new player base to discover the games on new systems. The Need For Speed series has been around long enough to inspire remasters or reboots of entries in the series. All these things have made fans clamor for the Jak and Daxter series to come back, and rightfully so.These games allow players to emotionally connect with the story, not to mention they're great racing games. Jak X offers something for everyone: a great story, and great racing mechanics. The Barron from Jak 2 tricks the character into doing a race by drinking fluid with poison, and the only way they can get the antidote is to win the races. The story fits right in with the Jak and Daxter lore neatly. This makes every race super exciting, because anything can happen. It's a combat racing game, which means players can undercut their opponents. Jak X is one of the best racing games on the PS2. The Ratchet and Clankand Jak and Daxter series both made amazing games, and helped the PS2 become one of the most iconic consoles to date. Back in the days of the PS2, there was a constant competition between the two poster boys of the console. This racing game turns everything up to eleven, which makes fun to play not just alone, but also with friends. This way, players can be more strategic in how they play the game. As Tanner talks to another character, players can shift him into a different car with better specs, and the conversation will continue. While this mechanic would seem to distract players, it actually works well. Tanner 'dies' in a car crash and has an out-of-body experience, which puts him in a different spot and allows him to take control of a different person in the game. On top of that, Driver: San Francisco employs a mechanic called shift, which also plays into the story. Players will get a real rush when driving through San Francisco in this high energy story. Driver: San Francisco puts players in the role of John Tanner, an FBI agent out to get Charles Jericho, who has held the city for ransom by creating a chemical bomb. Driver: San Francisco feels like playing through a TV movie, so players will get the feel of a very different type of racing game in general.

This title doesn't fully lean into the racing side of gameplay, but is instead focused on the story it's trying to convey.
