If you find it you can drive it and once you find each car they are immediately accessible via the in-game EasyDrive menu system (more on this later). Drivable cars are indicated by their manufacturerвЂ™s logo above them on screen. Instead of unlocking cars through gameplay they are located all around the city of Fairhaven. As you make your way up the Most Wanted list cars become even more exotic.Д¬riterion has taken a somewhat unconventional but refreshing approach to car selection and modification. Winning these races doesnвЂ™t immediately unlock that car for use as winning only earns you the right to try and perform a Takedown on it to earn it. In solo play, as you earn SP you unlock the ability to race against exotic cars that are on a вЂњMost WantedвЂќ list.

Instead of a corny story supported by cheesy full motion video cut scenes, which I loved by the way, Most Wanted revolves around earning Speed Points (SP) both in single player and online. While Most Wanted lacks that over-the-top sense of speed that Burnout is known for, gameplay elements such as a heavy focus on drifting, takedowns and boost gained by driving dangerously all carry over to Most Wanted.

Like Hot Pursuit, Most Wanted combines elements of both the NFS and Burnout series into one game. If we caught a glimpse of what Criterion had in mind for the NFS series two years ago with Hot Pursuit, Most Wanted appears to be the full realization of their vision for the series. After some extended playtime I can honestly say that if you are a fan of arcade racing, the NFS series, or even Burnout, you are probably going to really like what you see. While the latest release, Need for Speed: Most Wanted, shares the same name as one of the Xbox 360вЂ™s best launch titles, it certainly is not a reboot, remake or reimagining from the team at Criterion Games. While occasionally this has worked more often than not the series has seemed to fall flat on its face to the point where NFS almost lacks a true identity anymore. From year to year we have seen attempts to take the series in bold new directions. The Need For Speed (NFS) series has certainly seen its ups and downs over the past several years.
