Need For Speed Games

I’ve been playing NFS heat recently and it’s pretty dang fun. Growing up NFS was my go to arcade racing game. First one was NFS3, then high steaks, Porsche unleashed, and hot pursuit 2 on ps2 rocked my world. Underground 1 and 2 were also incredible. The first most wanted (overrated imo, I think carbon was better) and carbon were good. Pro street was alright, shift 1 and 2 were good then we had the new hot pursuit, very good. New most wanted was kind of good, then rivals was ehh.. still had fun with it. NFS 2015 was flawed but fun.. follow up with nfs payback was very bleh. My least favorite in the series that I played (and the fact I paid $60 plus tax on release day for this trash). Didn’t play any of the PSP games, undercover (bc heavily negative reviews), or nitro. Played the first 2 games on PC but the 3rd (NFS3 hot pursuit) overshadowed those and was better in every way I think.. So anyways, what are y’all’s thoughts and favorite or least favorite games?
