I do not own the game but this is what I can tell you: NFS Most Wanted is a good game. I'd give it a solid 8 from the accounts of friends, reviews, and videos I have heard and seen. The less NFS games you have played/owned, the more fun it will be. I have heard it is very similar to other games of the series. I have also heard that it is not worth the $60 you would pay for it. The forza series is much better.
Again, I have not played the game, but that is the information i have collected about it.
the forza serie isn't as good as NFS most wanted (2005) i havn't played the last most wanted. but i know there will be cops/ something forza doesn't has. forza is just racing rounds. not chasings on a open road network,
My brother got the game for Christmas...it doesn't look that good. I haven't played it, but it's basically a straight line course and a horrible physics engine racing game.
