(Review)How is the new 2012 nfs Most Wanted?

I liked the old nfs most wanted than the new one
Like the cold metal girders and
sun-glinted glass panels that make
up Fairhaven's skyscrapers, Need
for Speed: Most Wanted is as
mercilessly rock solid as it is
stylish. There's none of that
"turning car lovers into gamers"
stuff here. In fact, despite the class
that Most Wanted's stunning
garage exudes, Criterion has made
a clear distinction between the
materialistic superfluousness of
games like Forza Motorsport,
where the focus is very much on
your love for cars and the desire to
curate a digital garage, and the
thrill of the race itself. The result is
one of the smartest, most
enjoyable racing games of 2012 -
one that slams emphasis directly
on the race itself. Even better, it
doesn't require you to give a toss
about Top Gear in order to love it.
Fairhaven, the diverse metropolis
that acts as your racing
playground, is a construction of
weaves and webs starting from its
bustling industrial core and
spiralling outwards into wide-open
mountain tunnels and stretches of
highway. More than just a network
of roads for you to plaster with
burning hot rubber, Fairhaven
holds Most Wanted together with a
tight embrace. This is absolutely
essential for a game of this type:
Criterion's desire for thrilling
freedom would be nothing if its
host was a bore. Exploring every
area of this dense, spectacular
world warms you with a satisfying
way to spend time, from the
discovery of luxurious cars dotted
across every corner of the map to
the constant stream of information
about nearby races and your
online rivals.
As well as the return of Criterion's
social platform Autolog, Most
Wanted's jazzed up GPS - dubbed
Easydrive - knits the game
together with its player. Like
Burnout Paradise, Easydrive is
mapped to your D-pad to allow
quick, easy navigation of standard
menus. Discovered events can be
accessed immediately, whereas the
game will plot a course if you're
yet to take part in it - the right
balance between immediacy and
discovery, if you ask me. You can
also switch and jump straight to
cars, swap upgrades and head into
multiplayer. The unobtrusive
menus of Easydrive helps keep the
action prescient, unless you decide
to fumble with settings midway
around a particularly merciless
