Is There Any Other Racing Game

I have been playing Need for Speed since High Stakes. Let me tell you this is one of the best Need for Speed's I've ever seen. This is a must for the die hard fans. If you have Most Wanted you'll want this game because the story continues. The only thing I have to say is that it's too short. The replay value is really high though. I play at least once a week.

Not as good as NFS:MW

I bought this game on PS2 before getting Xbox 360, and I'm greatful for that since I would probably waste 50 bucks for it.

First, I don't like the simple map which indicates nothing in the real racing road. I can barely find where am I during the persuit or free roaming.

Second, the graphic is way too dark, even though I liked the way it is at the beginning but I found it is hard to race during the dark eventually.

Third, the mountain drift is cool for sure, but you couldn't find most of them in regular basis for practice.

Fourth, you wouldn't want to make any mistake to buy a new car and get rid of the old ones because the re-play races gives nothing more than 1000.

Fifth, the movies in this one couldn't any worse, even though EA hired the same director who made the ones in NFS:MW to do the work.

Sum-up, huge disappointment compared with the MW, and I still play MW everyday to climb up the rap sheet. So, you'd better download the demo first, or even buy the PS2 version for test before wasting more than 50 on this. Hope the 11th would be better!

Love It...

i love the open-endedness of choosing a car, customizing it the way you like it and just driving around a realistic city, down city streets, across highways...this is one of those games you can just pick up and drive without worrying about the storyline. the graphics are EXCELLENT, the driving is realistic...the music fits in with the mood of the city...you can customize your car IN SO MANY WAYSSS...everything about this game is just Perfect....especially for those of us who are Casual car gamers...and dont want to be bothered with gruesome and overly challenging point A to B races. racers come up to you and challenge you in the street and you can just race them for money to buy newer cars.

i personally Love that the game only takes 8 hours to beat and its not insanely difficult and Long. its always odd to me to hear people complain about a game being easy..but when its hard, they complain about that too...or when its too long, they get mad about it. stop complaining and just enjoy the game for what it is: a casual and cool driving experience.

i personally didnt like Most Wanted at all...but i also recommend NFS:UG2 for the original xbox. Carbon is a definate recomendation...and the Best game in the series. Thank You EA Sports.

Ok, I have always loved the need for speed games. This one is no different when it comes to the driving and competitive racing. Although... This game has been really pissing me off.

First of all, what is up with only being able to garage 6 cars? I like variety damn it! Second, my Xbox 360 has serious connectivity issues due to a worthless microsoft wireless networking adaptor. This said the game has a really, really annoying habit of forcing you to try to connect to Xbox live about 5 times before it will fail out and let you play the game locally. If you are playing and it trys to connect for any reason (like a online quickstart game) when your system is offline and cannot connect, you are screwed. It will reboot the console and you will lose all of your game play. I lost 3 hours worth of gaming because the damn game decided it wanted to connect to Live. So do yourself a favor if you have connectivity issues. Dont buy this game unless you want to feel like throwing your console out a window.

Fun but nothing new

Pros:
Awesome graphics (at least for next gen systems)
Long tracks to drive through
tons of events to play through
controls very well
Great car modifications and details for the 'underground' fans
Online play works pretty decent

cons:
You have to pay to unlock additional cars
Lame cutscenes
Nothing too different from other games in the frachise

Very good game

This is very good game, with excellent graphics, sound and plenty of options to customize cars, i haven't tried it on xbox live yet, but so far it has been plenty of fun.

Nice Graphics, nice tracks, but too short

I bought this game thinking about 1 or 2 mounths of entertainment (something like Grand Turismo for PS), but i done it in two weeks, playing just on weekends. Maybe they forgot send me the second DVD (joke), but the graphics, cars and tracks looks good.

its cool!

I have played better .. i have played worse. The car models are sweet and the racing is kinda fun, but I finished the game in like 2 nights. A good rental, but dont bother buying it.
