NOTE 2: as per CrispyChrispy's deal post, one of the related DLCs 'Keys to the Map' is currently being offered for FREE (discounted -100% off, normally A$6.00) until Oct 5th 3:00am AEST - this DLC can be added to your Steam/Origin library, provided you have the aforementioned base game.

    Seems to be a good price but the regular price of $99.95 is questionable.

    • KRiSX on 29/09/2022 - 09:12

      not really… $99.95 is a very common RRP for games in Australia… if you're dumb enough to ever pay that amount is another thing entirely.

      Base game is free with plus. I guess this is a cheap way to get the DLC.

      Frankly I found it unplayable. At 30FPS even on a PS5 with all those tight corners, it was making me sick.

  • Basil Fawlty on 29/09/2022 - 09:00

    Great GAME!!! thank you

    It seems also in a bundle with NFS Most Wanted Remastered and can be bought for another 10% off ($4.50) if you already own NFS MW Remastered on Steam.

    • swanny246 on 29/09/2022 - 11:17

      Whereabouts? I don't see this bundle on Steam.

      • slipkord on 29/09/2022 - 11:20

        Need for Speed™ Collection

        • swanny246 on 29/09/2022 - 11:21

          That shows NFS Heat and NFS Hot Pursuit, not Most Wanted.

          • slipkord on 29/09/2022 - 11:25

            @swanny246: you have a point, the only bundle I can readily find is the EA Racing Pack, that contains NFS Most Wanted

            edit: I initially misread xmagic's comment as saying 'NFS Hot Pursuit Remastered', hence I looked that up, and that game is in the Need for Speed™ Collection bundle I replied earlier.

            @swanny246: got it wrong. Should be Hot Pursuit Remastered. MW never got "remastered" from EA.

  • coxymla on 29/09/2022 - 09:32

    A bit of an underrated gem, I enjoyed it.

    The RRP is taking the piss though. If you wanted to play through it you'd be much better off subbing to Game Pass for a month.

    Does this keep your CPU pegged at 100% due to DRM?

    • coxymla on 29/09/2022 - 15:27

      I honestly don't think you'd want to use a wheel over a controller.

    • ShinK0 on 29/09/2022 - 16:16

      You can but not as simple as plug and play. I had to YT it when I bought the game back then.

  • SnowDragon on 29/09/2022 - 10:09

    This along with other NFS games are on Game Pass if you have that

  • anthpls on 29/09/2022 - 10:21

    Idk how many it will affect but the because I already owned F1 2021 the bundle that included NFS Heat and that game is only $4.50. Nice!

  • happykamper on 29/09/2022 - 10:28

    This game didn't blow me away, but at this price it's definitely worth having a go. I think it's best not to play this expecting it to be like the older NFS games.

    • coxymla on 29/09/2022 - 15:29

      Funny, my impression when playing it is that it is a spiritual successor to Hot Pursuit, with some of the drifting from later titles.

  • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 11:30

    Bought a new PC. Get this or Forza?

    • happykamper on 29/09/2022 - 11:32
      +2

      If you only get one, I think Forza is going to keep you entertained longer.

      • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 11:33

        Thanks, any recent deals on Forza?

        • slipkord on 29/09/2022 - 11:51
          +1

          Unfortunately I think you missed out on the most recently concluded discounted deals for Forza 4 (in June?) / Forza 5 (early September) … they're all back to full price I believe.

          • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 12:07

            @slipkord: All good I'll wait for the next deal thanks!

    • Dswal on 29/09/2022 - 11:34
      +4

      Different strokes for different folks. It's hard to compare. Forza will have much more content and you'll spend much more time in its beautiful world and many acitivities.

      NFS:Heat is a fast paced arcade game that has a lot of fun moments to it, but can get very repetitive very fast if it's not your style. However for $5 you should get at least that many hours out of it.

      • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 11:46

        Thanks, was thinking if I should outlay for a steering wheel combo too with my new PC. Do you know anything good value for a newbie to driving games? Cheers.

          Bro, I'm sorry that you weren't asking earlier in the week. This deal was incredible. I would look out for this rig or the Thrustmaster equivalent on special - or keep an eye out on secondhand of the same. https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/727044

          • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 12:30
            +2

            @ColPow11: Ah darn, well thanks at least I know the pricepoint for the next deal :/

            • Dswal on 29/09/2022 - 13:01
              +2

              @xdigger: The Logitech G920 is king when it comes to entry point into steering wheels. And it goes on sale frequently to the $299 pricepoint at JB HIFI and EB Games. I run an older version of the G920 and have been using it for about 8 years now, so they last.

              Thrustmaster is usually the next step and Direct Drives are the platinum route.

              • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 13:03

                @Dswal: Upvoted for the recommendations!

    • AssBargain on 29/09/2022 - 11:52
      +2

      honestly far prefer forza over nfs games cause of the large free-roaming open world and hundreds of cars to choose from. But its not exactly cheap even for older horizon games. If you dont care about MP and only want to play SP, there are alternate ways of sourcing the game

      • xdigger on 29/09/2022 - 12:08

        Haha okay thanks mate for the tip

    • hippo2s on 29/09/2022 - 12:01

      Forza or Forza Horizon, they are also different.

      Not the same tho. This has cops chasing you.

    • YeemaiI on 29/09/2022 - 14:00

      I've played both, I've put many more hours into this game. The storyline and voice acting can get a bit cringe at times, but the amount of car customisation alone will keep you busy for hours (still nowhere as good as NFSU/2 though)

    • whatgift on 29/09/2022 - 15:37

      I've played through this and Forza Horizon 5, and love them both for different reasons. I like the story and more mission-based structure of NFS Heat, but Horizon looks beautiful, is more chilled and has a lot to do.

  • superforever on 29/09/2022 - 12:01

    Is it possible to buy it with Google Play?, so that I can get the $10 promo from PayPal.

  • hippo2s on 29/09/2022 - 12:02

    BTW this is already part of Xbox Gamepass for free.

    FYI - NFS heat was recently free with Prime gaming, don't think Deluxe edition but still…

    • superforever on 29/09/2022 - 14:50

      I completely forgot to claim it on prime day, wonder should I buy it now.

  • MiataMx5 on 29/09/2022 - 13:32

    CN version has a much cheaper price, around A$3

      What's CN?

    • cloudzhou on 29/09/2022 - 20:42

      Turkey shop is even cheaper, less than $2

  • ShinK0 on 29/09/2022 - 16:15

    I bought this edition for $30 around a year ago, can say it was definitely worth the money at that price let alone this price. GET IT!

  • Godric on 29/09/2022 - 18:13

    I just realised that the game is actually Free To Play for the next 3 days.
    If you're interested you might as well download it and try it before you buy, but honestly if you're keen you could smash out the whole story over the weekend and be done with it.

    • slipkord on 30/09/2022 - 21:02

      Thanks for giving the heads up about that, that Free to Play Weekend thing was not there when I glanced at the Steam store listing yesterday so I wasn't aware they were going to do that until reading your comment just now.

    • superforever on 30/09/2022 - 23:08

      Downloaded to try

      • superforever on 01/10/2022 - 11:27

        Couldn't start the game, kept freezing up my computer.

  • slipkord on 03/10/2022 - 16:30

    If anyone was hankering for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered, it is currently on sale, A$3.99 at EA's Origin store (-90% off, was A$39.95). I checked the Steam store version, but it is at full price.
