Love this game
Still plays impressive in 2021
Arcade racing game with a plot as it should be. Atmospheric, fun, stylish, with lots of customizing and last but not least - a character behind the wheel, even characters, blacklist rivals. Without them it wouldn't turn out half as good as it did I think. Too bad Criterion's remake edition is so very far from the original.
nice
One of my childhood favorites and its still good today, even with mods.
I have that game on the PC.
Always was my favorite game when i was small
But now every time i see this game im thinking about how crappy are games now...

Just an arcade racing with nonesence physics and zero realism. Call of Duty about sport cars. Well, "gold era COD" about sport cars - it's not as bad as CoDs from 2009 and later on :D
Sure it can be fun to drive the car like a super-speed-indestructable-tank destroying props and dozen of police jeeps on the way, but gameplay repeats itself, giving your more and more exausting tasks like "have some badass chase with the cops" and then "have some EVEN MORE badass chases with the cops". Dropped it half-way though.
I personally prefer racing games with real garage, real car damage and money that are used to pay for the repairs - in games like that you feel in touch with your cars and love them; in games like Most Wanted you are throwing your cars against obsticles to get though.
Very good, the Career mode is very satisfying because from the start you get to the top beating all the top street drivers from the list.
