Need For Speed’s Most Wanted List , 10.0 out of 10 based on 2 ratings

Restricted area? You can’t tell me what to do! You’re not even my real dad!

Most of the focus on Criterion’s Most Wanted reboot/re-imagining has been on the open world. That’s understandable, what with Need for Speed: The Run quite publicly failing in its attempt to present a compelling main campaign. However, that doesn’t mean that the single-player experience will be devoid of purpose.

Much like 2005′s Most Wanted, this iteration of the sub-series will task you with taking down the titular black-listed racers. Plenty of cops will be trying to stop you, but it looks like the real challenge is chasing down and crashing the rival car. This seems like a pretty counter-intuitive way to unlock new vehicles, but what do I know? Also, I’m pretty sure that other driver is dead.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted is coming to PC, PS3, Xbox 360, PS Vita, and iOS on October 30th, 2012.
