Game modes:Massively Multiplayer Online (MMO)
Story:Need for Speed: World was the fifteenth installment in the long-running racing video game Need for Speed franchise published by Electronic Arts. This iteration was co-developed by EA Black Box (rebranded Quicklime Games before closing in 2013) and EA Singapore. It was the first freemium MMORG in the Need for Speed series (though Motor City Online was originally conceived as a Need for Speed game) and was available on Microsoft Windows. World was released worldwide on July 27, 2010. However, people who ordered a "Starter Pack" had an early "head-start" in the game, which started on July 20, 2010. Need for Speed: World, along with other EA free-to-play titles Battlefield Heroes, Battlefield Play4Free, and FIFA World, went offline on July 14, 2015.Show more

my memory of playing this game online due to the MMORacing style with otheir need for speed fans was a great, spent so many hours on this game and some money too :) If GoG could get the online servers back online this game with be a hit with the GoG community / Need or speed community
This game is a masterpiece of MMO racing games. Dużo godzin w warsztacie na tuningu auta, dużo godzin jazdy w otwartym świecie który znałem z innych części serii Need for Speed, spotkania na trasie, czat, wyścigi, pościg policyjne, fajne auta, dobra muzyka, nienajgorsza grafika mieszanka Carbona z Most Wanted. FORZA do tej pory nie zachęciła mnie do gry tak jak to uczyniła gra Need for Speed: World. Jeśli gra działałaby tak jak kiedyś, no może bez oszustów z Rosji to jestem przekonany, że dostałaby drugie życie, a serwery zapełniłyby się ponownie, gdyż nie wiele jest takich gier na rynku. Po prostu, miło spędzałem czas w tej grze, nawet na samej jeździe po mapie bez celu. Ta gra to mistrzostwo gier wyścigowych MMO.
grafika muzyka poziom pościgów z policją sam grałem w nią na PC różny poziom wyścigów dla tego i chciałbym w nią zagrać też ponownie po tych długich latach .

Game had its problems, it was grindy, lots of content behind payments, there was not enough content for open world, it felt empty. But i spend lot of time there, mostly editing vinyls and paints. I also had 3rd place in visual type car customization contest on some polish site, im sure i downloaded the site, and that is one of most comforting and warming gaming memories i have. Occasionally they gave out free cars, and that made more fuel for my creations, people i played with seem to have positive memories too.
A mix of the best parts from Most Wanted to Undercover... Could reach out to the Soapbox Race World team to bring it back officially. I played this game with it, and playing it in a proper manner on PC would be cool. Specially because Soapbox Race World gets rid of the bad aspects of NFS World.
man I remember playing this one as a kid since it was free and I couldn't-- didn't know how to-- get my hands on all the other NFS games. I loved it, considering you can kind of just... ignore the microtransactions and play without 'em. What I wonder though is if GOG manages to bring this to their storefront, it would make the most sense to collaborate with other resurrection projects; I think the EA servers have been down and out for the better half of a decade now.
Весьма приятные гонки с большим выбором автомобилей. Помню долго копил валюту для покупки Ford Escort Cosworth. Играл в основном со знакомыми по институту, так как было легко нарваться на читера. Были еще и всякие сторонние конкурсы на форумах. С удовольствием бы посоревновался вновь, но уже с комьюнити GOG.
Those games also need your vote!

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

Black & White 2
Black & White 2In the game, the player takes the role of a god called from the void (nothingness) to help those who invoked them. However, the player is not an omnipotent style god, but rather a god who rises and falls with his believers and the player must help develop their nature according to their good or evil desires. The player also has a creature, their physical representation in the world, which takes the form of an anthropomorphic ape, lion, wolf, turtle, cow, or tiger. Its physical manifestation can grow to an immense size, and adopt a good or evil persona separate of the player's. They develop their character as the player rewards or punishes their actions. In addition to the god simulation and city-building elements introduced in the original Black & White, Black & White 2 also features elements of real-time strategy gameplay, with the addition of controllable warfare and fighting units.

Need for Speed: Underground 2
Need for Speed: Underground 2Need For Speed Underground 2 takes place in Bayview after the events of Need for Speed: Underground. The prologue begins with the player driving in a Nissan Skyline R34 in Olympic City (though the racing scenes are actually in Bayview), the setting of NFS:UG. He then receives a race challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer." The player races off — despite Samantha's warnings — only to be ambushed by a mysterious driver in a rage that totals his Skyline. The driver, who has a unique scythe tattoo, makes a call confirming the accident, and the flashback fades out.
