Reboot of the game of the same name of 2005, Need For Speed: Most Wanted puts the player in control of powerful machines, like Lamborghinis, Porsches, Camaros and Hummers, in hallucinations.

The goal of Need for Speed Most Wanted is not just to get first in races, but to become the most sought after by Fairhaven police, a city created by Criterion to be the setting for the new game.

Mixing elements from the Need for Speed and Burnout franchise, the game still features a multiplayer challenge-filled mode, as well as a new version of Autolog, which makes online racing against your friends even more exciting and fun.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted brings together two great names. The first is the Electronic Arts franchise itself, which hits stores at a speedy annual release. But now she comes along with Criterion Games, the company responsible for the Burnout series and has already shown how to create mind-boggling races.

With responsibility for taking the series forward after the critical failure of Need for Speed: The Run, the company has recycled a concept from the past and has put cops and illegal runners living unhealthily in the town of Fairheaven. And many cars on hand to do this.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted shows you coming in the first few minutes. Packed by a sensational Muse song, the player is introduced to the basics of the game and, when he least expects it, is already released in the middle of the action. From the outset he is free to circle the city looking for new cars and evidence.

There are no lengthy tutorials or slower tests to show how everything works. Criterion assumes that anyone who is venturing into Need for Speed: Most Wanted already has experience with racing games, so it does not need to be taken by hand. The company does not underestimate the player and this spirit permeates the whole experience with the game.

It is impossible not to be distressed or desperate with a race that involves several competitors and a large police force. At such times, the amount of elements on the screen is gigantic and the game behaves extremely chaotic. It looks like an action movie, but it's you who's in charge. The madness behind the wheel was never so much fun.

Luxury finish

It is safe to say that we are facing one of the best visuals of racing games, with impressive graphics, beautiful asphalt textures and cars modeled to perfection. Criterion also abused the particles during development, creating dynamic environments that increase the feeling of immersion and contribute to make the gameplay even more exciting.

Running against the sun, for example, obscures the player's vision. Races in sandy environments are accompanied by large dust clouds, which leave the vehicles unclean and require extra attention because they prevent the visualization of what is ahead.

In moments of collision, this aspect is elevated to the last power. In addition to the crazy sounds that reflect the twisted metal and the total destruction of cars, the beats are accompanied by dozens of shards of glass and bits of vehicles scattered on the asphalt. The result is scary and incredible to the same extent.

Everything is worth it

With Need for Speed: Most Wanted, Criterion has completely removed the ropes from the gameplay. Virtually every action taken in the game is worth points that contribute to the player's position in online rankings, both among friends and the rest of the world.

If you do not want to face the title evidence, you can stroll around Fairview by messing with the police, destroying billboards, registering high speeds on radar or hunting cars. All the vehicles of the game are available from the beginning, if the player finds them by the way.
