Rave reviews.
"Criterion has done the impossible – they've taken what is, arguably, the best race-and-chase game made for this generation and somehow made it so much better." - Gaming Trend
"Criterion has done it again, setting a new standard for arcade-style racing games which won't be surpassed until the next generation of consoles has been on sale for a while." - Guardian
"After the Hot Persuit remake lifted the Need for Speed franchise to new heights, Criterion does it again with Most Wanted. The emphasis on free-roaming, social interaction and over-the-top action with impressive cars make the new Most Wanted a very refreshing racing game." - Gamer.nl
"It's the racing game for people who don't tend to like racing games." - IGN
A single mixed review after 25 reviews = an impressive feat. Criterion deserves all the praise... though I must admit I was skeptical with the game being so similar to Burnout.

Can't wait to play it on my 680! NFS: The Run was pretty lame and I've seen the visuals of NFS: Most Wanted so I have no idea where this 'visuals could be so much more better on PC' is coming from. It doesn't matter if it is a console port (played the demo on Xbox Live). Are PC gamers getting really hard to please? I have no issues with a console/direct port to PC. Nothing wrong if done right. Since I haven't played the PC version, I guess my argument isn't valid yet. Almost all games on PC I play on my Xbox 360 Controller, who plays racing games on a keyboard ? I left playing racing titles on PC ages ago... QUOTE(M1X @ Nov 2 2012, 02:22 PM) ^ it's a direct console port... So, understandable why keyboard not so good in it. Seriously if this is a PC exclusive game, visual could be 10x better, much much much MUCH more visual details, better definition audio, etc. This game ran too smooth on a cheap mid range card, the graphic engine/level not pushing at all.Maybe it's just me, but I don't see what's wrong. If it is too demanding = poorly optimized. If really smooth = console port/PC version isn't good. If PC exclusive = a winner? This post has been edited by defaultname365: Nov 2 2012, 03:00 PM
