I've been waiting for a new burnout game. I've always disliked the lack of damage on the cars with the past NFS. That being said, with Criterion making it, I'm looking forward to this one.
A criterion developed most wanted will be freakin awesome! I want it to be just like the ps2 most wanted game, but with burnout-style vehicle handling.
The Criterion Hot Pursuit was way better than any Hot Pursuit game before it. I am hoping that Most Wanted is the same way.
My only problem with first most wanted game was that it was to easy. Cops were easily taken out and there was no real challenge unless you purposely let 10 cops come after you at once.
I am suspecting this to be on Frostbite 2.x engine. So it should look badass either way.
You my friend, obviously have NOT played Burnout Paradise. It's sad you have been depriving yourself of such a wonderful game. I suggest you go play it ASAP!
The problem with open world racers is that it tends to create a lot less variation in the tracks, instead of heaving tailor-made race courses that are all unique and have different locales. The races in open world games are always a lot less fun to me than the races in ones that use courses. Plus, you always have to drive to the races, which is cool at first when you're first exploring the city, but it gets a bit tedious when you've seen the same locations 1000 times already.
But I like free-roaming and messing around, and the original Most Wanted really did a good job at making screwing around fun, mostly because of the cops. Criterion is also a really good developer.
sadly i do agree about open world racing games. i played burnout paradise the day it came out and after a month it became very tedious and boring. searching for people who were on the other side of the city, many of the races were literally the same, and the races didn't have that feel of burnout 3. that's my 2 cents
most wanted was cool for an open world, but i really loved underground 2's open world. was i the only one that liked that game cause no one mentions it or talks underground sequel.
Not for PS3 owners. We never received MW, so I hope we at least get to see that one bundled with the New MW. Or at least ported to the PS3 as a digital only purchase.
Ya it does suck how the 360 got it upgraded to sub HD with achievements and all the PS3 people get is the PS2 port.
Oh well, at lest it only costs $10, better that than nothing:P
On topic, can't wait for this! Hot Pursuit was fun and if only it had a story and more of my friend's list were playing it, I would have kept playing it for far longer. Hopefully they dont screw this up like they did with Undercover - their first attempt at making a true Most Wanted game.
they probably are working on it or a new IP similar to burnout. if i were to give ideas to them , i just tell them to put all the features that were memorable in all the previous burnout franchises and add slow motion when it's a head to head battle ( you know when the other guy is right next to you and his ramming you to slow you down)then press the action button as fast as possible to break away from it and destroy his car on the process
Thats it! Im throwing a party...... You know after Most Wanted i thought this series almost died.. but then Thanks to Criterion on Hot Pursuit, They literally saved this Franchise! That time I was thinking what happens if these guys (Criterion Team) makes a Most Wanted game from NFS!
And here we are...... CHEERS! for all NFS Lovers. :)
So this is good news for all those Need for Speed fans out there, but DAMNIT I want a freaking new Burnout!! Iv'e been waiting patiently since 2007, and I still DON'T have a new title to love. ><
Need for speed Most Wanted confirmed? are u fucking kidding me, plz not another NFS, iv'e had it with u EA, the only thing that keeps me going n tracking your crappy ass games is because of dead space n now you are remaking games? fuck this shit, sorry guys i'm not trying to bash NFS franchise, but ask yourselves this,if u had the power to remake an EA game, what would that be? NFS? hell no
Yes! Most Wanted rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And I believe Criterion games will deliver another very high quality games as burnout and need for speed hot pursuit.
Dammit, Hot Pursuit wasn't bad but it was nothing compared to Burnout 3/Revenge. Now with Criterion making Most Wanted it will be until 2014 at the earliest until a new Burnout game is released, which will be a 6 year wait since Paradise was released.

Most wanted was one of my favorite NFS games after underground.
MW took a lot of hrs of our life hopefully the sequel will have that magic too
But I like free-roaming and messing around, and the original Most Wanted really did a good job at making screwing around fun, mostly because of the cops. Criterion is also a really good developer.
rather have circuit racing like underground,hotpursuit,highsta kes racing.
if this MOSTWANTED anything like the first one
climbing up a blacklist fu'k it.
....Most Wanted....
Yeeeaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh!
But seriously, I effing loved Most Wanted.
Oh well, at lest it only costs $10, better that than nothing:P

It was a somewhat lame version of their crash mode.
Needless to say it was disappointing.
eeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssss s
I remember the challenge of racking up.. something over 1m bounty in 1 chase. Fun times.
And I believe Criterion games will deliver another very high quality games as burnout and
need for speed hot pursuit.
As bad as those cutsenes are they stuck in your brain.
Just like Battelfield 2 & Hitman & other late last gen games that got ported.
