I enjoyed racing in my Mitsubishi Eclipse before eventually upgrading to the BMW M3 GTR. If you beat Vic, you might even get his customized Toyota Supra. Certain cars, such as the Black List’s racers’ cars, will have upgraded versions. If you’re a car enthusiast, you’ll see a few favorites in the game such as the Ford Mustang GT or the Toyota Supra but it doesn’t have a roster that will absolutely blow you away. You’ll still be able to choose how to spend your money, so feel free to upgrade your spoiler or rims, or go the performance route and upgrade the engine and wheels. This might frustrate some, but it does give the game a bit of variety – albeit in a forced way. This feature keeps the player from being able to upgrade their cars and play exactly as they want. These rewards are chosen at random by you after these races, so you won’t always know what you’ll be getting. These chases remind me of ones that you’d see straight out of a chase scene in an action movie such as The Transporter or The Fast and The Furious.Īs you make your way through the Black List beating racers, you’ll earn money, upgrades, and possibly even the racer’s car. If you’re boxed in and busted by the police, you’ll lose your rewards and need to start that run over.

To do so, simply hide from the police on your radar. This gives you a bit of time to react, but you’ll still need to be smart to escape. You’ll start to hear chatter on the radio regarding what they play to do, which may involve bringing out a helicopter or laying spike strips on the road ahead of you. However, as you get further into the game and begin to reach higher Heat levels, it starts to get real. At first, the cops can be shaken quite easily. As your Heat level grows, you’ll begin to be chased by the police. As you tear through the city, hills, and highways of Rockport you’ll start to increase your Heat level.

The police chases within Most Wanted offer an experience unlike many other racing games, even until this day.
