Basics ( NFSMW.05 ) a. New Additions ( NFSMW.06 ) One of the biggest new additions in NFSMW is the presence of cops again. They were sadly missing from Need for Speed Underground I & II and were last seen in Need for Speed Hot Pursuit II back in 2002. The cops are now way smarter and will now use real life stragties against you such as using the PIT move against you and forming roadblocks to stop you. They will use Spike Strips, call Police Helicopters in and replace the normal police cars with Corvette C6 police cars plus loads more! The cops will react accordingly to your situation and all your cars will be equipped with Police radios that allow you to hear what the police are saying to each other. They will talk about ways in which to bring you down such as using a roadblocks etc. What this means is that you can always be one step ahead of the fuzz : ). Another new addition to NFSMW is the Speedbreaker. The Speedbreaker is a little move which allows you to press either the Circle or R3 Button to bring the intense racing down to slow mode which means that you can make split decisions such as making a sharp turn, going through the right spot in a roadblock, hitting the right spot on a truck to knock it's load over or driving benath semi-trailers. The usual improvents are here such as new cars, locations, race events, graphics, sound etc. but it is really the police that makes NFSMW stand out from other Need for Speed games and racing games on the whole. b.

Story ( NFSMW.08 ) NFSMW begins on the streets of Rosewood where you and your BMW M3 are looking to make the Blacklist 15 by beating a guy named Razor. Razor has sabotaged your car just before a race and that means during the race you are forced to drop out which means that you lose your car and you are arrested by a couple of cops. When you end up getting out of jail you find out that Razor has used your car that he won from you after he screwed with your car just before the race to climb his way to the number one spot on the Blacklist 15. From here the game begins where you must buy your new car and win races, piss the cops off and climb your way up the Blacklist 15, beat Razor and get your car back. d. Blacklist 15 ( NFSMW.09 ) The aim of NFSMW is to climb your way up the Blacklist 15 and beat Razor(who is number one on the Blacklist) to get your car back. To do that you will have to complete a certain set amount of races, milestones and also have enough bounty points. Once that is done press Down on the D-Pad to access the Blacklist and press square to challange the Blacklist memember to a race/s. Races are what they sound like. Races. Win a certain amount of races to challange the next memember on the Blacklist but wait that's not all. You will also have to complete some Milestones. Milestones are challanges that you must complete such as lose the cops in under four minutes, things like that. Finaly in order to challange the next memember on the Blacklist you must get a certain amount of Bounty points. Bounty points are your reputation points with the cops. For every cop chase that you have with the cops you will recive bounty points. You will get more points the better the cop chase was as well as other factors. You can complete these in any order that you want. Once you have completed the set amount of races, milestones and recived enough bounty points then you will be able to challange the next memember on the Blacklist 15. e. Race Types ( NFSMW.10 ) Circuit -- A single lap race where you get from the start to the finish and have to beat your oppoents there to win the race. Drag -- A race where you control the gear shifts and it's first to the finish wins. Lap Knockout -- A race where you race around the same circut a certain number of times and the last placed driver at the end of each lap is eliminated. At the end of the last lap the driver who is in 1st place wins the race. Speedtrap -- There are speed traps posted all around the city and get through each one as quick as possible. Earn the highest cumulative score and you win. Sprint -- Get from the start to the finish in as quick as possible to win. Tollboth -- Race through going through the tollbooths that you see within the time limit. Go through one of the tollbooths with time on the clock to get a time bonus. 0-------------------------------------------------------------0 III.

They are found in Heat Level 1 and can be evaded just by going your fastest. They are not all that smart and won't give you any trouble. Civic Undercover These are found at Heat Level 2 and will replace the Civic Cruisers when they come. They are slightly smarter than the Civic Crusiers and will began to use roadblocks on you. State Crusiers Now the state will get involved and send some Pontiac GTO Police Cruisers down to try and put a stop to your joyride. These cars are harder to immbolise than the normal cop cars and are now alot smarter to. Up to 15 police cars can now be chasing you at any giving time. State Undercover These look like normal viechles but there not. There fast and will use all the tatics at their disposal to bring you down. They will come after you once you reach Heat Level 4 and have a mininium bounty of 5,000. Light SUV These are heavy armoured SUV's also known as Rhino units. They will use the Ram tatic on you and will come in pairs and Ram you head on. Trust me, you DO NOT want to get hit by one of these. If you see one comming apply the Speedbreaker and get out of their way. These Light SUV's will also be apart of roadblocks and will come after you once you reach Heat Level 3. Listen on the Police radio for them to say 10-44 for this means Request Rhino. Pretty soon you will see the Rhino's comming. Heavy SUV These are the exact same as the Light SUV's in every way execpt that they are heavy and will cause more damage. They also come at Heat Level 4. Federal Sport Cruiser These guys are fast. They drive Chevrolet Corvette C6 Police Cruiser's all equipped with Nitro's that can easily match your cars speed. They will use all the Police tatics against you and are hard to evade. The only good thing about them is that they only come at Heat Level 5. Federal Sport Undercover Wow! These cars are fast and once again can match your cars top speed very easy. They use every single tatic against you and come at Heat Level 6! That's right I said Heat Level 6! Cross-Custom This car is ace! Awesome. Once again it's fast and can easily match your cars top speed and that's not all! It is driven by Sergent Cross the man who wants to put an end to all Illegal Street Racing. He comes at Heat Level 5 and 6 and I belive that there is a 5% chance that he will come and be involved in the pursit. I am not exactly sure about this though so could someone please clarify this for me. Drop me a line through e-mail. Huge thanks. At Heat Level 6 cross is guaranteed to be involved with the pursit. Police Helicopter, Normal The Police Helicopter will come at Heat Level 4 and will patrol from the sky. Due to the years budget cutbacks for the Police Deperatment they can only have one Police Helicopter at a time patroling and the Helicopter has limted fuel. This means that it can only be out for three minutes at a time before it needs to go back and refill. Then it will come back out and so on. Due to the limted fuel look for long tunnels to hid in! Police Helicopter, ANGRY! This Helicopter is the same as the Normal Police Helicopter execpt for a few things. It will come at Heat Level 5 and as well as Patroling it will also use the Skid Hit. The Skid Hit happens when the Chopper is low enough to the ground enough to make contact with your car. The contact if done right will send your car into a tight spin and you will have no control over your car. It is extremly useful for ending pursits. 0-------------------------------------------------------------0 IV. Carrer/Blacklist ( NFSMW.12 ) a. 15. Ho Seun, Sonny ( NFSMW.13 ) Blacklist Rival #15: Ho Seun 'Sonny' Ride: Volkswagon Golf GTi Strength : Circut Races Bio: This here is Sonny. He's dumped a whole lot of cash into his car.

Vince Kilic, Taz ( NFSMW.14 ) Blacklist Rival #14: Vince Kilic 'Taz' Ride: Lexus IS300 Strength: Sprint Races Bio: This crazy fool is a major heat score. Blacklist gave him the name "Taz".

Victor Vasquez, Vic ( NFSMW.15 ) Blacklist Rival #13: Victor Vasquez 'Vic' Ride: Toyota Supra Strength: Pursuit Length Bio: This dude's been holding it down in the #13 slot for a while now.

Isabel Diaz, Izzy ( NFSMW.16 ) Blacklist Rival #12: Isabel Diaz 'Izzy' Ride: Mazda RX-8 Strength: Lap Knockout Races Bio: Izzy is definitely a chick you don't want to mess with. She knows everything there is about cars, on and off the road. She's got her ride wired tight. She comes from a long line of race fanatics. Everybody she runs with is either a cousin, friend or uncle. They all stick close do don't get on her bad side. What to Do?

Photo Ticket Bounty: 5,500 Get clocked at over 114 MPH to successfully complete this challenge. Photo Ticket Bounty: 5,500 Get clocked at over 121 MPH to successfully complete this challenge. ----------------------------- Izzy's Rx-8 is slightly better than Vic's Supra so if you have won them both sell the Supra. If however you got the Supra but not the Rx-8 don't worry but if you don't have either start worrying. Win some races for cash and buy yourself a Supra and add some peformance parts to it. Don't waste any cash on Vinyls or stuff that don't make the car go better. You'll be selling this soon. You should also notice the races are getting a little bit tougher now. e. 11. Lou Park, Big Lou ( NFSMW.17 ) Blacklist Rival #11: Lou Park 'Big Lou' Ride: Mitsubishi Eclipse Strength: Tollbooth Time Trials Bio: This slab of Korean muscle considers himself a real ladies man. He's all show. Rumor has it; he panics around the cops and bails on races the first chance he gets. Along with that they say he has problems working the clutch so he's slow off the line. I wouldn't count on it if I was you. .\>Note</. Thanks to Trevor Coffee for correcting me. Orignally I had Race Wins: 4 but it is actually 5. Thanks! What to Do? Race Wins: 5 Milestones Completed: 3 Bounty: 300,000 -- Races -- Sprint Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 3.4 miles Circuit Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 2 Distance: 9.2 miles Speedtrap Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Maximum Laps: 1 Distance: 2.7 miles Tollbooth Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 6.7 miles Tollbooth Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 5.5 miles Sprint Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 3.8 miles Speedtrap Cash Reward: 4,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 3.9 miles Drag Cash Reward: 1,000 Cop Probability: Minimum Laps: 1 Distance: 1.7 miles -- Milestones -- Cost to State Challenge Bounty: 30,000 Evade the police pursuit with a cost to state of 20,000 to successfully complete this challenge.

Photo Ticket Bounty: 6,000 Get clocked at over 118 MPH to successfully complete this challenge. ----------------------------- That's a nice Eclipse he drives. You have to win and if you don't reset the PS2 and try again. Sell the Supra and the Rx-8 that you won or if you bought the Supra sell that. Now you know why I said don't waste any cash on Vinyls, rims or that. f. 10. Karl Smit, Baron ( NFSMW.18 ) Blacklist Rival #10: Karl Smit 'Baron' Ride: Porsche Cayman S Strength: Infractions Bio: This flake calls himself "Baron". He's a rich guy from the coast. He thinks garage custom is an excuse for being broke. As far as he's concerned, "If it's not name brand, it's nothing." Go show him what home grown rides can do. What to Do?

Photo Ticket Bounty: 8,000 Get clocked at over 139 MPH to successfully complete this challenge. ----------------------------- That Porsche is one of the best cars in the game. Add some peformance parts onto it and it will be faster than a Cheetah on speed. Baron is a pretty bad driver so winning against him should be easy. The only thing hard about this is chossing the right marker for his Pinkslip. Once you get his Porsche you should also have that Volkswagon GTi still in your possesion along with the Mittisubishi Eclipse, that way if the heat level on one car gets too high you can switch to a car with a lower heat level. From here on you should be using the Porsche for all your races against Blacklist memembers, g. 9.

Race along like a normal drag race although at about 80% through the race a van will cross the road. If you slow down to avoid it Jewels will overtake you and win the race most likely. So when you see the van upahead hit the Speedbreaker and gently, gently ease off the accelerator and turn. Then when your past it hit the accelerator and use some NOS and if Jewels is close to you block her being careful of the road ahead. Also her car is ace and is tough so try to win it off. The heavy armoured SUV's don't either bother this beast! i. 7.

If you don't have that the Dodge Viper with Peformance Upgrades is a godd way to go. You should have in your garage a Volkswagon GTi, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Porsche Cayman S, Ford Mustang GT and a Lamborghini Gallardo. It's O.K. if you have one or two of those missing. You need two viechles for Pursits, two for races and one for racing Blacklist memembers. That way if the heat is too much one one car you still have another car to do that task. For example. I have the Ecplise and Porsche for pursits. My Eclipise gets too many strikes and is impounded and I don't have enough cash to get it out. However I still need bounty points to challange the next Blacklist memember and I can't use one of my other cars because the heat will be too high on those and than the races will be harder.

Main ( NFSMW.28 ) a. Braking & Turning ( NFSMW.29 ) Braking is one of the most important aspects of racing. Knowing when and how to brake will make you a much better driver. Here is a very general, important rule for all braking. No matter what sort of a turn you are braking into always remember, " Slow In - Fast Out. " Going into a corner slower means that you will be able to accelerate out earlier and you will come out faster. If you were to do the opposite Fast In - Slow Out you will be accelerating for nothing because you will then be braking out of the corner and you will have to build your speed up again from a lower gear. By doing this you will most likely not hit the apex of the corner because you will have to turn a great deal whilst braking as not to fly over the corner and crash into a wall. If you tried to hit the apex you would most likely go into Oversteer because the front wheels would be turning a great deal to hit the apex and the back wheels would not be able to keep up with the front. Because you wouldn't be able to hit the apex which is the shortest route out you will be taking more time on the corner and you wouldn't be on the race line. Corner is divede up into three parts. They are the Corner Entry, Apex and Corner Exit. Below is a diagram with the different parts of a corner. __________________________ / Corner Exit ------> / / ____________________ <------- Apex | / Corner Entry ------> | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | __________________________________________________________ | | | KEY | | !!!!!! - BRAKE ****** - ACCELERATE | | C - Car ^^^^^^ - Let go of everything just | | slightly steer. | |__________________________________________________________| > Straight Line Braking < __________________________ / * * * ** * * / * / * / * __________________ | ^^^ / | !!! / | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | | !! | Here is a very important rule for Straight Line Braking. Always brake hardest when traveling in a straight line just before you turn into the corner. Remember that. The reason is any turn in the wheels will send your car into either Understeer or Oversteer. When you approach a corner hit the brakes hard but not their hardest in a straight line in front of the Corner Entry point. When you reach the apex hit the accelerater as hard as you can to speed away. > Trail Braking < __________________________ / * * * * * / * / * / C_*_________________ | !!!. / | !!!!! / | ^ | |^^ | |** | |** | |** | |** | |** | |** | |** | Trail Braking is a bit harder to master than Straight Line Braking. Unlike Straight Line Braking you brake later on, just before the turn entry and just before you break slow down a bit by letting go off the accelerater. This will decrase the risk of Oversteer/Understeer. You don't break as heavy as Straight Line Breaking because you are turning whilst braking and braking heavy will result in Understeer or Oversteer. As soon as you hit the apex accelerate out. Trail Braking gets you out faster and you don't lose as much speed unlike Straight Line Braking. What mostly happens to people when they use Trail Braking is they come in the corner to fast and they don't slow down before braking which cause them into Oversteer/Understeer. > 180* Turns < 1.

The straighter the line the faster you exit. And there you have it. How to get past a corner propely and quickly. They are the main types of corners and you shouldn't find too many corners that arn't in the above. Now onto... b. Overtaking ( NFSMW.30 ) You are never going to win races if you can't overtake. Overtaking. How hard can it be? All you need is more speed than the other guy, right? Wrong. Overtaking is more than just that. > Overtaking on Corners < To overtake a opponent on a corner get behind your opponent on the lead up to a corner and follow him to the outside line but be slightly on the inside line. Brake about half a second after he does and squezze in beetween him and the apex of the corner. Keep your car as close to the apex as possible and protect your line if necessary. If you have some NOS. you can use that once you have overtaken him to get even further ahead. The only probelm with this method is because you didn't start from the outside lane you won't be able to take the corner as fast. The revers of this is what's called... > Out of Corners < If you enter a corner slower and wider than your opponent you will have a faster exit speed. Postion yourself behind the person you are overtaking on that corner a little wider than he is and slow down a bit more than usual. When he turns into the corner extend your line a bit further before turning in and hit the accelerator to overtake him or even better hit the NOS. c. Automatic vs. Manual ( NFSMW.31 ) Automatic transmissions work just like they do in real life. Once a certain ROM is hit the transmissions will shift gears either up or down accordingly. This is perfect for beggingers. Manual transmissions work like they do in real life. You control when to change gears but remember to do it right or you will be going quite slow. Once you are comforatble racing in a certain car with Automatic transmission take the next step and go to Manual transmission. There is a step leraning curve but when you become good at Manual transmission you will be faster on the track and it will be easier. Although you do not have to change from auto to manual. You can play the whole game in auto if you want so do not feel pressured into switching. d. Oversteer vs. Understeer ( NFSMW.32 ) What is Oversteer and what is Understeer? Oversteer is when the rear of the car slides out from the direction the car is traveling in. Sometimes when you can control the Oversteer this can be good for you such as when you are trying to find a really tight line through a course. However Oversteer can sometimes if the Oversteer is great enough send you into a big spin that you can not control. To fix this probelm you have to bring more weight and force to the rear of the car by acceleartion and then steer in the direction of the skid. Understeer is when the front wheels are not steering the car right. The front wheels have lost too much traction and can therefore not steer the car around a corner propely. Understeer can be corrected by slowing down and therefore returning weight to the front wheels. Be careful when you are recovering from Understeer because sometimes the wheels will suddenly grab the road which can lead to Oversteer. This is why Understeer is more dangerous than Oversteer and the procces is called Fish-tailing. e. Cops ( NFSMW.33 ) The cops are back! Bout' time. After they were sadly missing from NFS Underground 1 and 2 the cops are back. Without the cops in NFSMW, NFSMW would just be another Underground game. The cops in NFSMW are there to put a end to illegal street racing and therefore will use everything they have to put your joy ride to an end. They will use real life stragties such as forming roadblocks, using spike strips, box you in with rolling roadblocks and use the PIT maneuver to make you lose control. Low-level cops will consit of regular police cars and undercover viechles. Raise the heat a little more and the regular police cars will be replaced with Pontiac GTO patrol cars which are faster, smarter and more aggresive. A police helicopter will also be called in at this point and raise the heat even more and the cops will bring out there Corvette C6 pursit viechles. These things are faster than everything else on the whole planet and are faster than just about every car, motorbike no matter how pimped out they are.One of the great things about NFSMW is that when you have cop chases with the fuzz it feels like you are actually racing a real life person. The cops will make mistakes just like you do and it is extremly satsifying to look back in your rear-view mirror to see a cop that has been pursing you for hours smash into a pole. Now luckly there are quite a few ways to lose the cops. All your pimped out rides have a police scanner that allows you to listen in to the cops conservations and to always be one step ahead of them. The cops will talk real life talk such as talking about stragties to use against you like the PIT manevoure or forming roadblocks up ahead on the highway. This enables you to take a sudden change in direction so that their roadblock will be useless or be ready to PIT manevour the cops before they use it on you. There are also Pursit Breakers. Pursit Breakers are located all over the city and are located on the mini map which helps finding them alot easier. Pursit Breakers are everyday things that you can drive through to create a short movie where that obstacle will fall down and leave the police behind, stuck behind all the rubble. Pursit Breakers can range from knocking down the big donout ontop of the donout shop to knocking down construction work. They are a great way to lose the cops. The normal way to lose the cops is by outsmarting them. When a cop chase begins a bar will appear at the bottom of the screen. When the bar gets to the very far right you will enter Cooldown phase but if it gets to the very far left you will be busted by the cops. Cooldown Phase begins when you have lost the cops and they are still searching for you. If you are spotted during Cooldown Phase the chase will begin again. When Cooldown Phase is happening there will be icons on the mini-map. These are places where you can hang low and wait the Cooldown period out. Drive to the location on the map and stay in the marker until you lose the cops and the game goes back to normal. You can contiue driving but depending on the intesity of the chase the cops will still be on the lookout for you so you can head to the garage and change the look of your car to avoid that probelm. f. Hints & Tips ( NFSMW.34 ) -- Don't use your NOS instanly and never use your NOS if there is only a smally bit in there. Let your NOS recharge and use it in big squirts. -- Always keep some NOS for the last section of a race so if you were to crash you still have a chance of winning or to quickly overtake a opponent on the last part of a race. -- Don't use NOS in the air it does nothing but waste it. -- When you hit a jump and are going fast, as you are about to land let go off X. The car will stick to the ground better but if you were to hold X when you land the car the car tends to swerve out of control. -- Use your money wisely it aint cheap esipcally when you get to the later stages of the game. A great example, buying the Mercedes-Benz SLR Mclaren for a cost of 300,000 and then putting in another 200,000 to modify it to it's full potential. Expensive stuff man! -- Always take the shortest route in a race and keep a eye out for shortcuts. -- To get the most out of your car go to the Peformance tuning to make the car suit your driving style. -- Making your car cool isn't as important as performance. It's better to have a car that looks like it came from your grandma's garage that goes 306kph than one of those cars rappers roll in that's as slow as a snail. -- When you apply the Speedbreaker a few things happen to your car. The Cars mass increases, Traction Increases and Sterring Increases. Apply the Speedbreaker just before you hit a Roadblock. Your car has a better chance of making it through due to the Increased Car Mass and the Increased Traction to help your car stick to the road. -- This is from Dragon and Ghost ( two different people ). A excellent way of racking up long Pursit times. " I was watchin my buddy Ghost play, and he found a neat little trick for rackin up pursuit times. We think it might be a tiny glitch. Run into the Bus Station, go up the ramp and sit on the ledge. You do need to keep half an eye on things cause the cops will occasionally take themselves out and you'll enter cooldown. If that happens, just drive back and forth on the ledge a little and they will pick you back up...if yer heat level gets to high you might get a cop behind you on the ledge...not a whole lot to be done about that, but we only saw that happen once. Anyway, thanks for the guide and have fun. Later, Dragon and Ghost. " This is great and works 95% of the time. It's real easy and I racked up a pursit length of 2 hours, 42 minutes using this glitch. Sometimes it might not work because your not in exactly the right spot but this dosen't happen that often. This is great near the end of the game for the milestones that involve Pursit lengths. Try it. -- Thanks to invunerable_gamer for this. " I have a great tip here about selling cars. To sell a car and get more than half of the stock price money turn all parts of the car to stock! When you buy another part that replaces what is already on the car you get a trade in total that is subtracted for the total cost of that part. When you sell a car you get less than the orignal stock cost of a car so by doing this you get even more money from trade-in's. Note that some parts of your car can't give you money like paint " g. !Pinkslips ( NFSMW.35 ) Due to the massive piles of e-mails I keep getting about Pinkslips I have made a whole new section just for them. What is a Pinkslip? Once you have beaten a Blacklist memember you will be able to select two markers out of a variety of other markers such as Peformance Upgrades, Visual Upgrades etc. Three of the markers are Bonus Markers and one of the Bonus Markers is the Pinkslip to the Rivals car you just beat. The Bonus Markers include things such as Extra Impound Strike Marker, Get out of Jail Free, Cash Reard etc. If you want to get all the Blacklist Members cars once you have beat them use the method below sent in by TrickedOutSunfire, it works all the time. -- This is from TrickedOutSunfire and regards getting the Pinkslips. He writes: " Also, regarding the statement about the 2 tickit things after beating a rival. There is no set pattern and mostly is luck, however, I have found that the pink slip ticket is never in the same place twice within a 2 rival completion. I always try to remember where the last pink slip was and ALWAYS pick the other two. This hasn't failed me yet. If for some reason you should try it and it is in the same spot twice, you have permission to hunt me down and kill me. Seriously though, as I said, It hasn't failed me yet. " Basically what his saying is save before you challenge the Blacklist rival. Choose one of the three bonus markers and if it's wrong reload and pick the other two to get it. Oh and if it for some reason dosen't work with your game DO NOT go after this guy and kill him, this guy is a champion! h.

Review ( NFSMW.40 ) The Need for Speed series haas been a huge francise since 1995 when Need for Speed made it's debut as 'Road & Track Presents: The Need for Speed' back on the Playstation. The one thing that made it a exciting game was the cops and with all the Need for Speed games the cops was the main attraction. Execpt for Need for Speed Underground I & II that is. They were great games but fans of the series felt slightly disapointed so when it was annouced that NFSMW would feature cops again it got many exicted again. It's been five years without cops in the Need for Speed games so many are exicted about the game. Most Wanted sees you climbing the Blacklist 15 in order to gain your beloved German Automobile back from Razor who won it from you in a rigged race. This time round Most Wanted ditches the secret night time racing and replaces it with intense day time racing to provide that adrenaline rush. There is plently to love about Most Wanted and not a lot, if not any to hate about Most Wanted. One of the best features of NFSMW is the smartness of the cops. They will react to your every move and will form real life stragties to bring you down. The races have not changed alot since Undeground II although there have been a few more added such as the Tollbooth race. Most Wanted also adds more cars to the garage than in Underground II with 60 something cars available aposed to the 30 something cars in Underground II. And they haven't just added a handful of more Import Tuners like in Underground II, this time round there are nice exotic cars which were sadly absent from Underground II. Another new addition to NFSMW is the addition of the Speedbreaker. The Speedbreaker brings time to nearly a halt and allows you to make split decisions. On more than one occasion you will find yourself doing a U-Turn underneath a truck, de-taching the truck in the process and then speeding back the other way with your NOS to hit a Pursit Breaker and to lose the cops. All at the hit of a button, either the O button or the R3 Button. The car customization is excellent and you can make some fully pimped out rides quite early in the game. You accquire new vinyls, peformance parts for your car, rims, bidykits etc. by beating memembers of the Blacklist 15. This is also how you unlock the new cars. Most Wanted is a excellent game and is defintly the best Need for Speed racing game and one of the best racing games on the PS2. There is heaps to love about it and you will find many hours of enjoyment comming out of it tricking every inch of your ride out, having awesome pursits with the cops and loads more. It is criminal if you have not picked this game out yet! Can't wait to see Most Wanted on PS3!! Graphics -- 9.7 All the veichles in the game are laser scanned and are exactly the same as their real life counter-parts, every inch of them is accurate. The lighting effects are great but if you slow down a bit the environments look a bit blurry. If you driving it's fine but your eyes will have to adjust if you slow down. Sound -- 9.6 The cars sound great and again sound like their real life counter-parts. The music is good although it could have been better. Apart from the sound-track the music is great. Gameplay -- 10 The racing is fast, exciting and intense. Cop chases can't get any better and they could be a whole game within itself. The day time racing makes the racing even more intense and fun and Need for Speed Most Wanted is everything that a racing game should be! Lifespan -- 10 There is heaps of races and challanges to keep you intrested for months and then there are the cop chases which provide even more. There is heaps of fun to be had modifying your cars and you will be playing Most Wanted for a looong time. Total Score -- 10/10 c. Version History ( NFSMW.41 ) 0.20 - 11/27/2005 Began the FAQ today.
