Video Game Reviews of Need for Speed: Most Wanted Black Edition
Customer Review: Best Car Racing Game for PC
Summary: 5 Stars
This game is best Ive seen of its kind...really awesome graphics....and game play...the price is nice also...wont find anything better on the market...again EA games rules.Customer Review: NFS most disappointing AI
Summary: 2 Stars
The game can be quite enjoyable to play, but extremely aggravating when 20 second lead times are erased because you're not allowed to win by that big of a margin. If you outsmart or out drive the computers cars you will see them granted acceleration speeds that can only be measured in Mach, and the cornering ability of a cheetah.
The recovery times of the AI's cars when tricked or pushed into obstacles seems like a huge hand follows them and quickly corrects any mishaps. When you find yourself losing because you nick some corner within 100 feet of the finish, but had been in the lead until then, you want to chuck the cd's out the window. I used to be a fan of NFS series, but this installment has me doubting I'll every purchase it again.
Customer Review: Great game!!
Summary: 5 Stars
This game is way better than the previous NFS installments. The free movement and cop chasing really add depth to an otherwise boring driving game. I like the tweaks that you can apply to the cars, but that's really not the highlight of this game. It's the characters, graphics, sound, and cop chasing in a free-roaming environment that lend this game to be one of the best driving games to come to the PC!Customer Review: The fact on Black
Summary: 5 Stars
Ive read all the reviews and wonder where the info is coming from. Fact: There is free roaming in this game just like in Need for Speed Underground, though the roaming isnt required to get to races. Its still nice to drive around though. Fact: this "rubberband" AI catchup thing, can be TURNED OFF! Its in the options. The game pretty much is a mirror of Underground, maybe with better graphics, certainly more interactive traffic. The AI cops are smart, and use shortcuts to catch up. They even attempt to slow you down using objects or other cars. Biggest change, is the loss of Drag and drift races, thank god. You have sprints, circuits, tollbooth(time trial) and knock out... last place car gets knocked off per lap. Outside career you have quick race and custom, where you pick location, traffic etc. There is also challenge mode. This is many small races with a reward at the end. The blacklist are a bunch of high profile racers you take down in order. To reach them you must win races and defy authorities. From what Ive seen you can do races over and over earning $$. Tuning, custom designs and such are all still in the game. Changing your cars paint, look etc is important, not for fame, but to avoid the cops. Cops, that come out of nowhere in the middle of races. You are also allowed to listen to the police frequency, which at times is quite funny. All in all, this game is better than Underground and if you are new to the series, this is the one to pick up. Customer Review: The love child of Need For Speed Undergound 2 and Hot Pursuit
Summary: 5 Stars
With this game you get the best of both worlds. The customization of Underground 2, and the running from the "Fuz" of Hot Pursuit.
The gameplay, sound, graphics, and replay value are all top notch. Just make sure that you breathe when you are in the middle of a level 5 police chase.
