  Need for Speed: Most Wanted Review

  • Terrific handling makes driving a pleasure  
  • Police chases are usually intense and enjoyable  
  • Billboards make for satisfying asynchronous competition  
  • Online multiplayer races are fast and exciting  
  • Beautiful and varied city.


  • In slower cars, police chases can be a frustrating ordeal  
  • Repetitive police chatter  
  • Lacks any sense of narrative motivation  
  • Building up a car collection is unfulfilling  
  • Inconsistent, sometimes dull online challenges.

If you desire structure, if you wanted a game to be meted out to you, you might find its instant freedom somewhat overwhelming. But Most Wanted is all about deviation and deviance. It's the racing game for people who don't tend to like racing games.
