Synopsis

Synopsis
Your knuckles turn white as you grip the wheel and push the pedal to the floor. You swerve around the cars that get in your way, dodging left and right, only inches from causing a fiery wreck each time. Your heart pounds and you can feel the adrenaline coursing through your entire body as you continue to pick up speed. Driving faster than you ever have before, you still wonder if your speed will be enough in this pursuit, because you're not running toward anything — you're running away. You are the Most Wanted.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted sends you racing through a no-rules world at full speed as you try to outrun the cops, outdrive your friends and outsmart your rivals. Hit jumps and shortcuts, power down and slide out as you try to shake a relentless police force on your tail. Hook up with friends and jump into nonstop action with a playlist of competitive events where you can race and battle to earn points and speed to the top of the leaderboards. Can you survive as the Most Wanted?

Posted by: from Bristow, Virginia on 02/15/2013This game plays like a very good racing game. The graphics are only passable but you'll forget about it once you see how good nearly everything else in the game is. It's great that they were able to fit all of fair haven in the game. It is pretty large, has nice scenery and good off road areas and jumps. The fact that all of the cars, except the most wanted cars, definitely works, but would be better if they added some story to the game. I wish there was a character that went along with each most wanted car. If the game had better graphics, a story, and more main races to beat, it would be in the top 5 best racing games ever. Of course it does have the graphics on console that it is lacking on vita.

Best Racer on Vita! (So Far)
5
Posted by: from san antonio,tx on 11/12/2012this game reminds me of burnout paradise, of course its made by the same developer. anyway this game is really fun to pick up and play. i love the open world setup. races are intense and some are pretty difficult.. for me anyway. crashes are always fun haha, although the damage isnt as detailed as in ps3 version. this is my favorite game on the vita so far!

A must own (and as good as the ps3 version)

Posted by: from Arizona on 11/04/2012After playing both PS3 and Vita versions of NFS:MW I can safely say that the vita version is in every way JUST AS FUN. Of course it does not look quite as nice, but all of the little details are there including car damage, gates to smash, light poles to knock down etc The amount of traffic is still MORE THAN ENOUGH to be a frustrating pain during the more difficult races. The loading times are impressive by how short they are, and that includes loading the online. Online works perfectly smooth. The difference in player size (8vs4 on vita) is actually welcomed IMO. Game supports custom soundtrack via the vitas music player (just open the player before starting NFS) AND via Music Unlimited app (which gives you unlimited downloads for 9.99/mo even new releases and works with 99% of all vita games. Get it, 60 day free trial on Vita store now. GO! GO GO!) Do yourself a favor - save the 20$ and get NFS:MW on the vita. It is similar to Burnout Paradise in play style, and having that on the go (or while I'm watching football) is a dream come true! Criterion...YOU RULE!
