E3 2012: Need for Speed: Most Wanted Gameplay Footage and Trailer Burns Rubber

Here’s the official announcement trailer, plus some gameplay footage, for Need for Speed: Most Wanted.

One of the highlights of EA’s E3 press conference last night, the gameplay footage for the Criterion-developed open-world racer looks stunning. But then you’d expect that, you don’t make Burnout Paradise and Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit by accident.

Check out the vids below. Need for Speed: Most Wanted is out on October 30th. There’s a little bit more info here.

Looks like a big improvement from the past few games. I used to buy these games yearly. The Undergrounds, most wanted, undercover and carbon but then stopped cause it just wasnt the same. looking forward to this though!

Most Wanted is my favourite followed by Hot Pursuit thanks to Criterion, both my favourites in one game :)

Has anyone else noticed how the video is convinently set so when not played there is a big Bioware advert. This game does absolutly nothing for me, just looks like Hot Pursuite and The Run, the cars look cartoony and sound fakey, let's shoot a car of a 200ft jump and it'll be fine(what a coad of bullshit, you know how much work had to go into Ken Block's car to get it ready for the 100ft jump).

It just looks like a pile of crap they have thrown together using car models from Hot Pursuit and The Run and not listened to what us fans want. I want a game with a story and some level of realism, at least with the Underground games you had a story, a fully custimizable car and no fakey 200ft jumps(although an occassional police chase may have made it more realistic if you clip another car and then they could have reported it to the cops)

Is there going to be some sort of story like Most Wanted 1 that gives a real reason to race or is this just a race for the sake of racing game? Cuz I really don't two shits about beating my friends time on whatever leaderboard.

Underground 2 was my favourite NFS but it was mostly because of the car customization system in it. Still looking forward to this

@4 This actually like the 3rd Most Wanted title. Hopefully, it's just a temp title for now.

I'll definitely rent before buying. Tired of spending all that money on these games just to get bored of them in a week.

I love the way the cars rock as they shift about on their suspensions, its that kinda detail that I love from a game. Can't wait for this one!

This looks pretty generic.

Howabout we get another Burnout similar to #3.

@13 - Exactly what I want to know! Probably not though. Criterion didnt use them in Hot Pursuit so who knows.

@14 - Reboot

The original "Most Wanted" game had some environments that could be used as obstacles for our rivals. That was a lot of fun and it was the main feature of the game.
From what I saw in those trailers, these game doesn't have that feature. I think that's a shame and certainly, many "Most Wanted" fans like me, will not buy this.
To me, the new Most Wanted went from "high hopes" to a "generic arcade-racing game with a little touch of Burnout style".

Keep this one like MW1. ...... no online achievements. Oh and a Cobalt SS will help get me to buy it.

With all the racing I'll be doing, I wonder if I'll have enough time to stop at the bus station... ^.-
