Need for Speed: Most Wanted is being praised by a number of professional game critics, saying it sets a \u201cnew standard in open-world driving games\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s the racing game for people who don\u2019t tend to like racing games. You\u2019re not punished for missing that apex or abandoning that nagging racing line. It\u2019s undoubtedly one of the year\u2019s most exhilarating experiences.\u201d Read the full review<\/a>.<\/p>\n \u201cSometimes while playing Most Wanted I was confused what to do next due to the sheer volume of opportunities. I was even frustrated at times when seemingly out of nowhere, a civilian car clogged up the last turn of a particularly high-tension race, causing me to eat metal instead of grabbing victory. But part of the beauty of this game is that there is no such thing as an unfair ending. Whether you’re dominating your opponents or barrel rolling your way through a race, you’re getting what you wanted – a game, that win or lose, goes all out getting there.\u201d Read the full review<\/a><\/p>\n \u201cFairhaven is less a race track and more a playground – but a race track is exactly what Most Wanted needed most.\u201d Read the full review<\/a><\/p>\nGame Informer: 9.0 \/10<\/h3>\n
