If you liked Most Wanted.. you'll most likely be highly disappointed. The best parts of MW were taken out or cut down severely. I played 90% of the way through with a total of 3 cop chases, one which I initiated, all three totaling close to 2 minutes. Add on the fact that you must pay extra for nearly every car in the game (real cash) to download the cars which are actually already in the game. there is no Freeway (which was where you could get the most speed). The addition of the team mates is nearly pointless. Your blocker helps but half the time your in the lead anyway. The drifter never helps because your always going into a turn. The scout is garbage. They removed basically what made Most Wanted addictive, and added 3 things. 1: Drift.. fun and a good addition. 2: auto sculpting... cool idea, but when each car can only customize about 4 kits, and the sculpting is just widening or lowering pieces, its not much. 3: canyon Races...best part of the game. They are so intense and make you cringe when you fail, only thing I hope makes in the next installment. Outside of these 3 things, the game is very boring. Also add in the fact that anytime you try and do more than two things at once, the game freezes (it froze while i took a picture of my car). I hope EA brings back canyon races, makes the auto sculpting a bit more customizable, loses their cheap business style, and brings back everything with Most Wanted. oh and for god sakes fix the stupid drivers and cops... there complete idiots.
