| genre = Racing | modes = Single-player, multiplayer }} ''Need for Speed: Most Wanted'' (commonly abbreviated to as ''NFS: MW'' or just ''Most Wanted'') is a racing video game developed by EA Black Box and published by Electronic Arts. It is the ninth installment in the ''Need for Speed'' series. The game features street racing-oriented game play, with certain customization options from the ''Need for Speed: Underground'' series. The game is succeeded by ''Need for Speed: Carbon'', which serves as a sequel to ''Most Wanted''. ''Most Wanted'' has been released for Nintendo DS, Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2, Xbox, GameCube, Game Boy Advance and is the first ''Need for Speed'' game released for the seventh generation console, the Xbox 360, as one of the system's launch titles. Another version of ''Most Wanted'', titled ''Need for Speed: Most Wanted 5-1-0'' has been released for the PlayStation Portable. In May 2012, the PlayStation 2 version was released on the online virtual market, PlayStation Store, for the PlayStation 3. On June 1, 2012, a reboot of the game, also called ''Need for Speed: Most Wanted'', was announced by the British developing team Criterion Games and was released on October 30, 2012. ''Need for Speed: Most Wanted'' received positive reviews and was a commercial success; it sold 16 million copies worldwide, making it the best-selling title in the series. ==Gameplay== ''Most Wanted'' is like other ''Need for Speed'' games, where the player selects one car and races against a time limit or other racers to reach a destination. Police chases have once again been integrated into certain racing sessions, in which the police employ vehicles and tactics to stop the player's car and arrest the player, like ''Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit'', ''Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2'', and ''Need for Speed: Carbon''. As players take control of faster cars and increasingly rely on nitrous oxide speed boosts, the oxide meter now refills automatically for the first time since its introduction in ''Underground'', and driving sequences become fast-paced and intense similar to the ''Burnout'' series. Three distinct regions are offered in the city of Rockport, along with cycling weather. Racing events take place between sunrise and sunset, unlike in the Underground where the events took place at night. A ''Grand Theft Auto''-like Free Roam mode is provided as in ''Need for Speed: Underground 2'', but is still limited to Career mode, as well as pursuit-based events in other modes. Brand promotion from ''Underground 2'' still continues strongly, with Old Spice and the presence of Burger King restaurants, Castrol oil, Axe Unlimited and Edge shaving gel. The Cingular logo is still visible in the game's wireless communication system. Performance, body and visual parts that can be bought in the game are also from real life companies. However, Best Buy stores did not return from ''Underground 2''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005 video game)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
