"Disappointed with single player"
4 stars"
Purchased on Mighty Ape

Bought this game for single player aspect, as dont do xbox live. was utterly disappointed with game mechanics such as easy to miss turn offs (no barriers stopping u from going the wrong way) and limited shortcuts available.

Dont get me started on what happens when u crash… lets just wait 5 seconds to tell you that you have crashed, every single time!

The music was good however, and some of the different features were nice, but it just lacked the customisation of the car, such as colours etc and no upgrades from money, just felt like a lack of game enjoyment for me.

Also no split screen… come on its a racing game. what ever happened to inviting a mate around to race :/

If you enjoy easy racing games, then this is for you. However once you get online it becomes considerably more enjoyable.

Sadly customizing your vehicle is very limited and no aesthetic upgrades avaliable =[, no currency used just unlocks.

NFS is a nice enough game, but suffers from being too generic. It's quite good in all areas, graphics fly past at speed and the cars and the city looks well detailed and real, but it plays exactly like every other nfs game.

"If you like to drive with some sense of control don't buy it"
4 stars"

I was excited for this game to be a better version of the original most wanted. I was extremely let down. First they give you 2 options to view while driving the first is 3rd person which I've never used in any car game and the second seems to be under the front bumper allowing a limited view and weird experience. Where did the bonnet view go- Also the steering seems to be really weird being sensitive as it turns when you just rest your thumb on the stick to a little movement and your car is swinging all over. Another annoying fact is every time you car which for me seemed to be every 30 secs while trying to magnate their set up you have to watch a crappy crash animation wait 5 sec before you carry on and this happens if you hit a truck at 30 Kms. The roads are always caked in water even if you see sunny cloudless skies and police chases apart from spikes which are cool are horrible unrealistic and very difficult to get away from as in cool down mode police random pop up in the strangest of place just where you're heading (they'd have no idea you are their ) and you nearly never get away. There's also no story no sense of saving to buy anything as every car is free and upgrades a very difficult race away.

If you want to buy hire it out at your local video store if you like the arcade of it then get it but if you're looking for anything mildly similar to a good car game get forza horizon as it features gorgeous car sim driving cockpit views and endless upgrades and a long STORY.
