3.0 out of 5 stars Fun at first January 1, 2006
By Todd
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Edition:Standard
Fun: 2.0 out of 5 stars   
I purchased this game hoping EA redeemed themselves for the junk they called Need for Speed Rivals. It's better than NFS Rivals, but Most Wanted still has many, many flaws.

The game starts out pretty fun. Once you get to around 7th or so on the blacklist, it starts getting pretty bad.

The first few races are easy wins. Then, it gets a bit more difficult, and around 7th on the list, the races just don't get difficult, but thanks to the terrible AI (the AI might actually be too good, thus making it terrible), they get almost impossible to beat. I love a challenge, but EA takes it too far. Don't forget the complete lack of realism in the game.

First of all, I don't think anyone at EA researched the cars in the game. In real life, in a race between a modded RX8 and an equally modded WRX STi, the STi would wipe the floor with the RX8. Not in this game. Want to beat the modded STi? Buy a stock RX8, you're almost guaranteed a win. An Adui TT is not faster than a Corvette. It has nowhere near the power of a Vette. But in this game, it's the other way around. The TT will beat the Vette. EA should have fixed this, make the cars in the game resemble the cars in real life.

Second, the AI never makes mistakes. While even the best players will spin out and crash occasionally, the AI cars rarley, if ever, crash or lose control.

Third, the cops in this game are extremley annoying. The cop cars have perfect handling and are always faster than you. Not only that, the cop cars have some dirty tricks to try to get you to stop. They'll force you into civilian traffic, they'll crash into you, anything. Most people want the game to be realistic. Now, I've never been involved in a high speed chase myself in real life, but I know that cops would never, ever force you into a civilian's car to get you to stop.

If the complete lack of realism isn't enough, here's more complaints:

1. Where did everything go??? The console versions of NFS Most Wanted have more cars, more tracks, free roam...everything. Most things were cut out for the PSP version. No free roam, fewer cars, a small selection of tracks, and other features are gone. I know that UMDs don't hold as much as DVDs, but if Rockstar can fit Liberty City on a UMD, EA could fit whatever city this game takes place in on a UMD and offer free roam.

2. The few tracks you have are very repetitive. I'd say there are 10-15 tracks, and around 100 races. You'll be seeing the same thing over and over again.

3. The soundtrack is rather dissapointing. If you like rap, its probably OK, but I despise rap, so I have to choose from the few rock songs there are. I've found the best soundtrack is muting your PSP and putting on your favorite CD. I wish EA would have taken advantage of the ability to transfer MP3s to your PSP and allow custom soundtracks.

So, what does the game do well?

1. The graphics are pretty good for a handheld. I'd say they're just slightly worse than the PS2.

2. Quick loading times. I've yet to see a loading screen last for more than 20 seconds or so.

3. If you don't count the terrible AI as a bug, this game has few bugs.

4. Great time waster. If you're bored and have your PSP with you, this will help pass the time as you attempt to beat the horrible AI.

So, is this game worth 50 bucks? No, it isn't. Maybe once the price drops down to 40 or 30, it would be worth it. But if you have $50 to spend and really want it, buy it for PS2, Xbox or Xbox 360. You'll be happier. But if you just want a good racing game for PSP, pass this up and take a look at Burnout Legends.

5.0 out of 5 stars My Favorite PSP Racer!!!! December 8, 2005
By Gus
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Edition:Standard
Fun: 5.0 out of 5 stars   
I have not been able to put this game down since buying it a few weeks ago. I actually traded in GTA to get this because I was burned out on it from playing the 3 PS2 GTA games. I was not expecting this to be as good as it is. The graphics are nice and the sense of speed is great once you start upgrading your car. It is very cool having the cops trying to take you out while trying to win a race. This may not be up to par with the console versions but for a portable system it is very impressive.

3.0 out of 5 stars Out Of The Way Coppers!!! February 6, 2006
Platform for Display:Sony PSP|Edition:Standard
Fun: 3.0 out of 5 stars   
I definitely know what it is to have the feeling for the fast & the furious with the thrills of the racing. I've been a huge fan of the Need For Speed series for the past several years. While the game series has had its shares of status with the game on the thrills of the chase with Hot Pursuit 2, and the recently released Most Wanted games for the consoles. Yet, with all the hype of Most Wanted for the consoles, the handhelds have all lost some of the momentum. With Need For Speed Most Wanted for Nintendo's DS edition have doesn't have the appeal of the thrill of the chase. With a different spin of the game for Sony's PSP out, could that have the same effect the DS had for gamers? Here is the answer.

Need For Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0 for Sony's PSP is a different spin of the high speed thrills that the consoles have made. The game of course has some of the similar effects the consoles have made successful, but this is a different spin here. The object is the same as the other editions, you have the evade the cops in order to make your way to the top of the list, but there are much fewer challenges and courses for you to master. The graphics on this edition, are very well received and the sound is good, but the control at times, is very shoppy, and is difficult to manuever your way around the police where the console editions have a easier time making it happen. You get the same cars that you have to master on the console editions like the Mazda RX-8, the Chevy Cobalt, and other great cars. As you work your way up, you can get newer cars, and remodel and enahnce your car with better controls and devices, which are great, but they can be difficult to master at first, but easy to operate later on.

All in all, Need For Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0 for the PSP isn't really worth all what it is speedwise worth. It is a good game for some, but if you have had the thrills of the chase for the consoles like the Xbox 360, or Playstation 2, you are just better off with the home console editions instead. If you just only have the PSP, I suggest you rent the game and try it out.

Graphics: B-

Sound: B

Control: C 1/2+

Fun & Enjoyment: C+

Overall: C
