Advantages: Good cop chases, nice graphics, easy to drive Disadvantages: cop chases get a little repetitve
Before Most Wanted the Need For Speed titles focused heavily on the underground street racing scene, both of the previous two efforts were pretty average but this one is a whole lot better. The game comes with all the same modding options and more just like in the previous games, the gameplay is much more satisfying this time round and the game feels much better to play. If you familiar with the game you'll definitely want to buy this game as it's ... ...slip. The police chases in Need For Speed Most Wanted help the game return to it's roots and they are just so much fun to race in, you will find yourself on the edge of your seat dodging cops left right and centre whilst trying beat your opponents to first place and trying not to crash.
The dodgy and very cheesy cut scenes in between races and at the start of the game tell your characters story and even though it's tacky and the actors are unknown ...

== Need For Speed: Most Wanted
So, the new Need for Speed Most Wanted. I found it to be a truly awesome game. I think that graphics are immense... that is on your own personal car. The surrounding cars on the road don't have quite as good graphics, actually they look a bit like toy cars. However, the same can be said for all Need for Speed games so I won't downgrade the game to much over that. The sound effects on the ... ...in the game you will need to challenge each one of them to a race and beat them. Although, unfortunately, to challenge them you will nead to win quite a few races first, but I suppose if this wasn't the case the career would be way to short. This set out also gives you a good guide as to how far through the game you are. Most wanted also, unquestionably does what the NFS games are famous for very well. That is the cars and customisation/tuning. There ...

Advantages: Amazing Sense Of Speed, Beautiful Cars Disadvantages: There isnt any story but then again who cares
Every Need For Speed so far has been better then the previous, Need For Speed-Underground2 was way better then Need For Speed and now Need For Speed-Most Wanted is slightly better then Underground 2 but only slightly.
The sheer sense of speed matched with the stunning visuals make this game quite possibly the best Racing game ever! There is also a lot more European cars in most wanted Thank god! From Fiats to BMW Most Wanted has a brilliant variety ... ...If you want any of the Need For Speed games cheap! the best place to go in my experience is "gamestation" on the pre owned section I buy a lot of games and I find some of the best prices are indeed at gamestation.

Advantages: Has good gameplay that is followed up with the graphics Disadvantages: Tends to repeat alot
...title. I was impressed with need for speed underground 2 and knew that it could only get better. My prediction was correct the game was got the graphics that is required for a game like this. It also has the gameplay to back it up. The game now included police chases which add an effect of suspense when driving in the free roam world. The variety of different races etc give the game a good level of complexity and difficulty. This means that the game ... ...bad point about the game would have to be the fact that the game can repeat alot when played in long spells.
The game starts with a creative storyline that gets you straight into the game. This then leads to ou required to races a variety of different tracks to climb the blacklist. You are required to win races and earn money to improve your car and potentially race for pink slips against other drivers meaning you put your car on the line to try ...

...wheel screeching instalment of the need for speed series. This is truly an amazing game in all senses. It has sleek and detailed graphics that really do give you that sensation of speed that EA are famous for in this series.

The bounty this is where things get fun in order to increase your bounty you need to stay on the wrong side of the law at all time, and engage in as many police pursuits as possible. Grab a parole cars attention by either destroying public property, driving at unspeakable speeds or just plain and simply ram your car into the side of one. Then the chase begins but be warned ...

...races and increasing 'bounty'. You need a certain amount of races won and bounty earned to challenge the rivals. Bounty is earned by teasing the police with your high powered cars and breaking every law in the book. The songs that can be played while you are in your car are, in my opinion, excellent. There is a range of tunes ranging from heavy metal and rock to head bopping drum 'n' bass. It may sound complicated buy dont be fooled. Fantastic game ...

Advantages: Beautiful graphics, and great gameplay. Disadvantages: Can be annoying if caught by the police.
After two distincly average Need For Speed games, i had personally given up hope for this street racing series, but then along came this game NFS:Most Wanted, it is a much better game than the others but has the same basic premise as the previous titles , race heavily modified cars illegally around the city of Rockport for cash and respect. But compared to other NFS titles it does it with a real sense of style, and by that i mean law enforcement ... ..., now you have to do it while avoiding the police aswell, and it is this twist to the gameplay that makes this new NFS title great, the police chases are so good they will make you want to be caught speeding just to hand the old Bill his arse on a silver plater yet again.
It's it sense of excitement more than anything that elavates Most Wanted over its forerunners.Here is a game that thrusts you into a world of illicit street racing and cop baiting.

...lot of spare parts. In need for speed 2 all the races were at night and the visibility was not very good in this game the visibility is very clear because the driving is in daylight.
Driving the cars in this game are quite easy but you have to watch out for the traffic which is a pain. The drag racing is quite hard as do have a lot of speed but cant turn a lot to avoid traffic. There are a lot of racing choices such as drag, circuit, speedtrap, ...
