It is very Good game to play in my off time at work
  • the controls are easy to use and adjust
  • the complex tasks required to challenge a most wanted driver
The GOAT game!
  • Just fine to play
  • No Pay2Win then
love the game. Look like the game a play on ps2 when a was younger
Connect a controller, turn your favorite adrenaline Music on and your brain on 60%. This equals a good evening to end the day without too much cognitive challenge. The graphics in this and NFS Rivals are still very bearable
This is the best NeedForSpeed game of all the franchise, its' an extremely satisfying game, and i loved being chased by the police, the map is huge and full of secrets, and the cars that you can own without buying a dlc's are still very good
  • Great cars
  • Great pursuits
  • Great map
  • too many dlc's
  • dlc's prices too high
  • bad npc AI
Very fun game, it's like Burnout Paradise with licensed cars. It's graphics still keep up today and for the current price I'd say you should give it a shot. It's no EA Black box era NFS, but it's fun.
  • Good cops
  • Good looking graphics without the need of crazy specs
  • Hilariously horrible microtransactions
  • Lack of content (customization, story)
this is a very fun game with many car choices this is a game for car lovers and racers you can explore the map run from cops customize the cars and race to your heart's content I would not change anything I did not buy the game off this website but I do have the game
  • Very fun
Brilliant game! Personally my second favourite NFS in the series. I love the accuracy of the car sounds and the graphics quality considering it was released back in 2012. The police chases are quite fun, and I quite like the map your get to drive around in.
  • Amazing graphics
  • Variety of cars
  • Xbox One Controller support
  • Origin still expect you to pay £30 for all 4 DLC for a 6 year old game
  • Quite easy to beat all the Most Wanted cars in a small amount of time
  • Cinematics for the Most Wanted cars seem to be laggy
I thought that this game was the original most wanted game, but it isn't. It don't seem like original one, i found its filosophy very diferent from the original. i don't like this game. I recomend not to buy this game.
  • police IA is good
  • not the original game
  • too much stalker police
The game is very nice. perfect graphics. easy to drive.
Delivery of game was fast.
I found no issues while palying the game, also onlie is working pefect.
I recommand this game to any one who likes races and chases by police.
  • Game works perfectly
  • none
