:( good bye burnout. See, thing is, Need for Speed is so far gone and ruined, not even criterion, the god of arcade racers, can save it.

Ugh, I love NFS and Burnout for their own, separated reasons. I don't like them mashing them together into Most Wanted 2.
Most Wanted 2 looks like Facebook: The Game fuck Criterion
Criterion didn't really took NFS in the right direction with Most Wanted 2, nor I think it will ever do a NFS game as good as the Undergrounds and the original Most Wanted.
[QUOTE=MightyMax;36484396]:( good bye burnout. See, thing is, Need for Speed is so far gone and ruined, not even criterion, the god of arcade racers, can save it.[/QUOTE] Goodbye Burnout? To me it looks like Criterion can release any Burnout game they want, as long as they call it Need for Speed. Have you seen Most Wanted? It's practically Burnout Paradise 2.

Why do they keep lacking a number on the end, is EA too cheap and lazy to patent it? First Hot Pursuit and now Most Wanted, neither have a number signifying they are a sequel to the true originals.

After Hot Pursuit I wish Criterion would leave. Hot Pursuit was such a joke. It was like a dumbed down version of Burnout and it barely had ANYTHING involving police chases. Stick to Burnout, PLEASE, but don't make another Burnout Paradise.

[QUOTE=MaddaCheeb;36486973]Most Wanted 2 looks like Facebook: The Game fuck Criterion[/QUOTE] this.
As long as the "CRASHED!" prompt dissapears and the cars don't drive like trucks on 2 ft high mud, then I'm all up for Criterion's Most Wanted. Oh and make pursuits actually pursuits and not a dumbed down Road Rage.
