Me like that BMW!!!! OMG, this is it, the game we've all been waiting for. This announcement made my day!

Combining the thrill of illicit street racing and tuner customization with the intensity of strategic police pursuits that rivals any Hollywood-style chase scene, Need for Speed Most Wanted challenges players to become the most notorious and elusive street racer.

"Out-race your opponents, evade cops and exploit the open world in Need for Speed Most Wanted; street racing doesn't get any better than this," said Larry LaPierre, senior producer, EA Canada. "Players instantly will feel the thrill of the ride as they hit the streets in an open world environment where drivers can tune their cars to compete against any class of vehicles or use their wits to out-fox the law to satisfy their need for speed."

Need for Speed Most Wanted delivers a unique, fast-paced and gripping ride in the racing genre as players build up their Rap Sheet and street cred to move their way up the Black List to become the most wanted racer on the streets. Players will go head-to-head with the top drivers on the scene as well as strategically evade more than half dozen cops at any one time. Add in a dynamic open world, new gameplay and customization as well as tuners, supercars, muscles and sports cars and Need for Speed Most Wanted will be on every gamer's "must-have" list.

Developed in Vancouver, B.C. by EA Canada, Need for Speed Most Wanted will be available for a next generation console as well as the PlayStation 2 computer entertainment system, Xbox videogame system from Microsoft, Nintendo GameCube, Nintendo DS, Game Boy Advance, PSP handheld entertainment system and PC.

Thank you http://www.worthplaying.com

I guess this is the part where EA likes to tease us with all the shots & videos...

LMAO, jemc already used the BMW pic as his sig and avatar.

Abrams, just the heads up, this game was in production before NFS UG2. It's been in the works for at least 2 years and I'm glad they post-poned it,

I will say again:

Look at the number plate

3years of development like GT4

Andre_online · Post by **Andre_online** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:14

I think it's worth the wait... EA has done pretty well for NFSU2. They deserve a break. And with this huge game developing, I think it's worth the wait.

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:20

What's up with the number plate?

Oh ok, I see it. November 2006??? No way!!! It better be November 06, 2005!

^Sparco^ · Post by **^Sparco^** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:23

Good point, didnt think about that possibility.

I know Im alone in this, but I rather prefer the game to be released on November 2006

Are you gonna be able to stand the teasing that we would get sooner or later from IGN, GameSpot, EA Games, etc...?

jemc · Post by **jemc** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:29

Gamespot says it's coming in 2005...

Post by **Morty** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:30

IF this is true (I have a hard time believing in anything that's not on an official site), then I'm extremely happy to finally see a BMW in NFS. Waiting until november won't be a problem for me tho, GTA SA is coming in only 2 months from now, so the timing is more or less perfect...

Andre_online · Post by **Andre_online** » 11 Apr 2005, 00:30

I guess I shall wait more for better information.

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 11 Apr 2005, 02:00

Ok according to this site, http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/603/603092 ... ?fromint=1 the info is not an official announcement but leaked information. The real announcement should be coming in a few days. Looks like my predicted date (April 16) of the announcement may become real.

EDIT: Want a high res image of the previously posted BMW pic? You got it.
Apparantly it's too big to attach it here but I will link. Get it while you can, it won't be there for too long.

yipee great and i think itsatisfies everyone

Post by **Bojan** » 11 Apr 2005, 10:07

What's happening with EA I have no idea. Once again leaked information.
This is however not *official* yet as EA hasn't published it yet. But expect it to become official very soon.

You think I'm lying? I said before this was the leaked official announcement. Why would I lie?

YES!!!!!!!

hmmm, let me explain something, last summer GTA San Andreas was announced, and it was said that its coming on October 26.

the same went with NFSU2 and maybe 1 too, iam not so sure, what iam trying to say that they cant anounce this now if they are planning to release it in 2006, anyway, http://ve3d.ign.com/articles/603/603092 ... ?fromint=1 said in its little preview about the game that the official announcement will be coming in a few days just like 2furio said so i dont think it will be coming in 2006 at all if they are going to make an official announcement soon.

Thats all
