    The game is ok. The track design is boring and the tracks are mostly long mountain roads with long bends. There isn't a lot of cars either. There are some glitches with the vyals but the cops actually go after the other drivers and arrest them!

    it is one of the best racing games ever BUT once u get to 75% done u hit a brick in the wall. i cannot get passed it and neither can u. Some thing happens that the game does not let u go on with the game as though it does not want u to finish. If I get passed it I shall tell u.

    The presentation of the game is very nice, changing that ugly text from burnout legends, that seemed bigger and not designed for the psp screen, overall the game is good, but it happens to have the annoying cops around you all the time. You just cant do anything when they are around, let alone drive straight. The analog nub feels a little too loose when playing, and its notorious if you The presentation of the game is very nice, changing that ugly text from burnout legends, that seemed bigger and not designed for the psp screen, overall the game is good, but it happens to have the annoying cops around you all the time. You just cant do anything when they are around, let alone drive straight. The analog nub feels a little too loose when playing, and its notorious if you play ridge racer or burnout legends before this one. The same stuff we are getting these days from EA (not that is a bad thing.....well, sometimes...) but this is not the case. Althought, there is no way, and I really mean NO WAY, that a reviewer could give this game a 90. It has it's moments, but is way below Wipeout Pure, Burnout Legends and Ridge Racer.… Expand

    It's an OK game, but good for a PSP game. Found Burnout Legends to be better, but let's talk about this. The blacklist was just a series of random-ass races. Do a few required races and a blacklist member driving a new car challenges you. It gets more stupid when you realize you have to BUY the blacklist car then APPLY the vinyl, which was a big no-no.

The car selection was what you see in a PSP game. Limited customization but fair enough. Cops are too OP as the heat level 10 can keep up with your fully tuned Gallardo. Roadblocks are SOLID. No smashing through. Physics though are really funny, as you hit traffic and your car spins on it's tail. Also, a crazy 3,2,1 BUSTED system instead of bar meter. And finally there is a new mode called TUNER TAKEDOWN and it's kinda like Hot Pursuit, with 15 stages. Except when you fail you have to do the whole damn thing again.… Expand

    achei um jogo extremamente chato e repetitivo. pela primeira vez tive a sensação de terminar uma corrida em um jogo de corrida e não querer ir para a próxima.

    A solid, nicely paced portable racing game with one frustrating design element that is a major part of its overall design, unfortunately. The cops are there to punish you for performing well, which is precisely opposite of what games have taught us throughout history.

    Everything in this iteration has been improved, and the addition of five-oh in your rear-view adds a degree of drama. [Holiday 2005, p.98]

    Most Wanted isn’t as much of an upgrade upon "Need for Speed Underground Rivals" as we had hoped it would be. One of the biggest upgrades to the game is the police races, and they just become annoying.
