 Need for Speed Most Wanted

 By: Jason Maitland | Edited by  | Published: December 30, 2005  

   

So what cars are in the game? The Lamborghini Murciélago is my favorite and is arguable the fastest car in the game. The complete list includes the Aston Martin DB9, Audi A4 3.2 FSI Quattro, Audi TT 3.2 Quattro, Audi A3 3.2 Quattro, BMW M3 GTR, Mercedes-Benz SL 500, SL65 AMG, Mercedes-Benz CLK 500, Dodge Viper SRT10, Fiat Punto, Ford GT, Ford Mustang GT, Corvette C6, Corvette C6.R, Cadillac CTS, Pontiac GTO, Vauxhall Monaro VXR, Cobalt SS, Lamborghini Murciélago, Lamborghini Gallardo, Lotus Elise, Mazda RX-8, Mazda RX-7, Mercedes-Benz SLR McLaren, Mitsubishi Lancer EVOLUTION VIII, Misubishi Eclipse, Porsche Carrera GT, Porsche 911 Turbo S, Porsche 911 GT2, Porsche 911 Carrera S, Porsche Cayman S, Renault Clio V6, Subaru Impreza WRX STi, Lexus IS300, Toyota Supra, and the VW Golf GTI. The special Black Edition of NFSMW has a few extras not listed here. I actually started the game with the Golf thanks to the extra cash from UG 2 and I used that till I could have afforded the Porsche Cayman S. One thing I found was that a fairly normal car when fully upgraded can run with the big guns. Having said that, the heavy rollers do have a definite advantage and must be sought after at all cost.

For those of you who have played the demo, the rest of the game is even more exciting but it does use some of the tracks in the demo fairly often so if you master them you are in luck. The course and overall city design is a lot better than UG 2 and the massive cities are designed for high speed racing and non stop action with a couple of tight corners every now and then. They have also built-in the ability to instantly jump to any race in the game without having to drive there even though you could. This ability was also in UG 2 but it is far more efficient in MW. They have also reduced the number of garages that you had to find in UG 2 and now there are basically 3 main garages, one of which is the dealer. This also increases efficiency as you can do a lot more in one garage. These garages are usually very close to each other so that saves a lot of time and frustration. The freeway system is greatly improved and the short cuts are indeed shortcuts (if you take them right J ).
