Okay, so maybe you do want your car to be red all the time. All the varied colors, none of the agonizing decisions! It’s not often I find myself driving a puke green Lancia Delta. Instead, when I drive through a gas station to repair damage (cosmetic only) and add a little boost juice to my tank, the color of my car randomly changes. When I think how much mental power - and time - I waste decorating my characters and cars in The Sims, Assassin’s Creed 3, Guild Wars 2, and any given Forza, I’m sort of grateful that there’s no visual customization in Most Wanted. I learned that from Jeff Goldblum in The Fly. Please don’t look at how many times I’ve gone back and forth over that bridge to grab the speed trap and billboards.Ĩ) No fretting about the color of your car!Įinstein had seven identical suits so he didn’t waste any mental power figuring out what to wear on a given day. Guess whose name he’s cursing as he comes in a half second shy of my time after ten tries! Conversely, it’s pretty obvious when I’m beating my head against someone’s jump distance. Oh, look, someone has tried this race ten times, and he’s still in second place behind my time. Furthermore, it also shows how many times he attempted any given challenge.

Most Wanted, which really can’t be bothered with nuances like manual transmission anyway, shows the car and configuration your friend used in a race. So what if that guy was going 15mph faster than me on this stretch of road? He’s probably not even using manual transmission. But it did so without telling you what difficulty they were playing, which assists they were using, or even what car they drove. Most recently, Forza Horizon also compared you constantly to your friends. Any good racing game plays on this spirit of friendly competition. You can compare detailed stats with anyone on that list. Furthermore, your overall progression in the game is measured as your standing on your friends list. You are constantly presented with your friends’ race times, jump distances, and speed trap speeds. So is that jump up for grabs, or did one of your friends already take it with some souped-up supercar tuned with long gears and given a long running start? In which case do you go about your business or do you take it upon yourself to claim the billboard all over again? As if knocking product placement out of an open world wasn’t incentive enough!ĩ) How desperate are your friends to beat you?Īs with the billboards, a lot of the draw while playing Most Wanted is beating your friends.
But you won’t know this until you smash the EA branding off the billboard. You never again have to look at that EA brand! However, sometimes your friends got there first with a greater distance. But when you smash through them by doing some sort of dramatic jump, you post your gamertag icon with your jump distance. Need for Speed: Most Wanted didn’t have to be this good.Īs you drive around the city, you’ll see billboards for EA related brands. Things that ultimately make a difference for me. But as I play, I notice things that Criterion and Electronic Arts didn’t have to do. And boy is Need for Speed: Most Wanted a silly thing. Please go here for more info on cars exclusively available as DLC.I can’t get enough of this silly thing.
