Need For Speed: Most Wanted **06/25/05 2 More XBOX360 Shots Added**

[JayPatel]

Combining the thrill of illicit street racing and tuner customization with the intensity of strategic police pursuits that rivals any Hollywood-style chase scene, Need for Speed Most Wanted challenges players to become the most notorious and elusive street racer.

"Out-race your opponents, evade cops and exploit the open world in Need for Speed Most Wanted; street racing doesn't get any better than this," said Larry LaPierre, senior producer, EA Canada. "Players instantly will feel the thrill of the ride as they hit the streets in an open world environment where drivers can tune their cars to compete against any class of vehicles or use their wits to out-fox the law to satisfy their need for speed."

Need for Speed Most Wanted delivers a unique, fast-paced and gripping ride in the racing genre as players build up their Rap Sheet and street cred to move their way up the Black List to become the most wanted racer on the streets. Players will go head-to-head with the top drivers on the scene as well as strategically evade more than half dozen cops at any one time. Add in a dynamic open world, new gameplay and customization as well as tuners, supercars, muscles and sports cars and Need for Speed Most Wanted will be on every gamer's "must-have" list.

Developed in Vancouver, B.C. by EA Canada, Need for Speed Most Wanted will be available for a next generation console as well as the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, Xbox videogame system from Microsoft, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, PSP handheld entertainment system and PC.

That looks crazy, may get it for my Cube.

[puff_daddy_58_99]

that shot is promising, as it is an actual bmw, which may mean they have secured the rights to have bm's in the game. My major worry is that it will just be NFSUG3; meaning it has new cars, and a new city, but same gameplay/graphics. The police stuff might be fun, like hot pursuit, but that got boring after a while.

[JayPatel]

thats an actual in game render. if you go to voodooextremel.com and check out the high res pic, you will see there is aliasing in the screen. im guessing its a xbox shot since Microsoft is mandating that all XBOX360 games include anti-aliasing

[bluetroll]

nice... BMWs.

[shabby]

Too bad that bmw is riced out, why cant they make a game as good as porsche unleashed? That was the best from the nfs series.

hahahaha... i can't believe i didn't notice that BIG ASS wing!!.. hhaha...

i definitely agree with you... porsche unleashed was amazing...

i didn't even notice that stupid wing until you mentioned it either! must have just thought it was part of the background scenery

OMG, I jus noticed that 2, so ugly..so high, looks like a piece of metal was jus put on..looked likea nice car 2, before I noticed that :(

[Spare-Flair]

Yuck, I wish they'd offer an option to go both ways, tuner or classy elegant luxury-sport...even plain old JDM would be nice over the rice crap.

I was still most impressed with NFS3 and Porsche Unleashed.
Give me a McLaren F1 or even a 355 F1 in the game to go against all the rice. It should be illegal to put a park-bench on a Beamer.

i hope they bring back lamborghinis in this game

[shabby]

i hope they bring back lamborghinis in this game

Would you really wanna see a lambo with a basket wing in the back, neon on the underside and decals all over it?

[Gordon]

Thats Going To Be Awsome!

Thats a crime.

I agree though NFS Porsche was amazing, I kinda want to go play it now :)

[jollyeskimo]

I can just see it now....smashing into walls at even faster speeds than before, and not have any blown tires, broken axles, and of the extra bolt-on ricer gear break/fall off.

My money's going towards ToCA 2006 and LFS.

[Gordon]

woooooooooooooooooooooooooo time for a new videocard!

[Taiphun]

Silly, that BMW's not riced out.

That's an M3 GTR.

Nice picnic table on that bimmer, i can put my sandwiches on it ;)

[jerryhussain]

The buildings/scenery in the background look straight out of HL2. ;)

[jb22]

I kind of miss the old NFS series, focusing on exotic cars. Heck, why not have a NFS game where you can mix exotics with import tuners.

Impressive

[ShadowVlican]

just for xbox360... or is PS3 gonna have it too :)

[sfu_lifer]

No, the PS3 will launch later so it will have the following year's version which will look MUCh better than this one. Of course, the 360 will get that much looking version too :)

[puff_daddy_58_99]

come on guys, those can't be in game shots. Definately some lovely cutscene action. From the gameplay video I have seen, I was definately unimpressed. While I know that the e3 stuff was running on alpha hardware, and they still have 6 months to make the game look pretty, I think they may just end up rushing this one out without really pushing the 360's visual capabilities.

I'll probably have to wait for PGR3 or Forza 2 for that.

While I want the exotics back they'd probably end up with a lot of complaints about how the imports just can't keep up :lol:

Those are in game shots. Looks exactly like the footage for E3. Also the graphics arent as spectacular as PGR3, this game should be playable with a 9800Pro/6600GT (if they release a PC version).
