Important to every racer is its frame rate and I am happy to report that Most Wanted has a steady frame rate. This happens visually with the aid of some lines moving at the back of the car, giving the impression that it is blurry as you are moving such a speed. The sense of speed is good, not on the level of Burnout of course, but you do get the sense of travelling quickly. It is nice to see that the game features good draw distances, as not only is it important for all the scenery nearby, it would not be much of a racer if you could not see in front of you.
The views in Most Wanted are rather good, I often found myself staring into the skies. New for Most Wanted is the ability to visit rural areas, in particular golf courses. Most Wanted, like its predecessor, is set in the underground, which is made up of lots of silver coloured buildings and neon lights. The fact remains to be seen though, if you have an Xbox or Playstation version of this game, is it worth getting the 360 one? Let’s find out. It will have tough competition however, launching along side Project Gotham Racing 3. Supporting greatly improved visuals and High Definition, Most Wanted is one of the nicest looking racers ever seen. The giant of the publishing world, EA have been busy in preparation for the launch of the 360 – providing no less than five launch titles, one of those titles is Need For Speed Most Wanted. The time has come for the next generation of gaming to commence, first to the table are Microsoft, with their Xbox 360 system.
