Advantages: Drift races are back! More car customisation

Disadvantages: Police chases aren't as good

Well i always wondered how EA would build on the amazin NFS most wanted. And now it seems that wonder can be replaced with dissapointment. Well while the game is ok, it feels that they have taken a step back, and that it lies as a step between the underground series and most wanted. The most frustrating thing is, they seem to have found what worked best in most wanted and taken it out! The police chases no longer feel quite right. And worse, there not required anymore. You could quite easily complete the career mode with only 1 or 2 chases under you belt. Dont get me wrong, if you never played previous NFS games, then this is definatly a 10/10 game. Just for those like me, who have got most of them upto this, you are left feeling like something is missing. This said, the game has some great challenges, some even better cars. And, fingers crossed, makes it look like EA have finally worked out that the car customisation available in the NFS Underground series worked great. While EA have added new races (canyon duel) and it sees the return of DRIFT races, it stil feels a step sidewards, rather than forward.

Summary: Seems to be a bit more of a sidestep, than a step forward for NFS

I played this game on a demo disc and hated it, it's nowhere near as good as previous nfs games
