NFS Most Wanted: Mobile Version

As Gamerzines reports, Electronic Arts revealed the first details of the mobile version of Need for Speed Most Wanted, which will be available on App Store and Google Play this October.

As for EA it is the "most socially connected game of this generation" as you can collect Speed Points across platforms to become the Most Wanted. Additionally you can unlock cars in the iOS version by playing the PC and console versions of the game.

Need for Speed Most Wanted will be available for iOS devices including iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch, as well as Android.

NFS Most Wanted: Control your Mods with Kinect

Criterion implemented some nice Features with the Microsoft Kinect in Need for Speed Most Wanted.
Let's say you're being chased by cops and want to add mods through the EasyDrive menu. With Kinect you don't have to navigate through the menu, you can just say what you want.

For example "Mods, Nitrous, Burn Nitrous" will equip your car instantly with an extra boost that you need.
Need some slicks for the asphalt? Just say "Mods, Tires, Slicks" and done.

Sounds pretty neat!

EA Gothenburg working on a new Need for Speed!

Now it's (kind of) official: EA Göteborg is working on a new Need for Speed! While earlier this year a suspicious LinkedIn profile (we reported about this) started the rumours, it's now concrete with the job listings on the EA Gothenburg website, where the swedish studio is looking for developers working on the new NFS:

Would you like to be a part of EA? Would you like to work on a game in the Need for Speed franchise? You now have the opportunity to become a part of EA Gothenburg and fulfill those two wishes!

Of course there are not details about the upcoming Need for Speed game yet, but EA Gothenburg is focused on the development with the Frostbite 2 Engine, which was last used in Need for Speed The Run. Other popular games with this engine are Battlefield 3 and Medal of Honor: Warfighter.

NFS Most Wanted: Playstation Vita

Need for Speed Most Wanted will also be released for Playstation Vita! For the developer Criterion Games this is a huge step, as it is the first Need for Speed game developed internally by the team for any handheld system.

The PS Vita version is a port of the Playstation 3 version, so that you get 98% of the races and events plus a few events exclusive to the PSVita. You also get all the cars from the PlayStation 3 game.

psvita01_400.jpg


In the online mode you can drive in the open world Fairhaven with up to 4 players (instead of 8, as on PS3), but you get all the collectibles, speed cameras, Jack Spots, the Milestone events for each car and of course it's all wired up to Autolog.
Since the PS Vita is not always connected to the internet, you have an offline version of the Most Wanted List, which will sync with your online profile once you get online.

The Vita version of NFS Most Wanted will be available on October 30th.

NFS Most Wanted for Wii U in 2013

Need for Speed Most Wanted will be also available for Nintendo's upcoming conosole Wii U. The releasedate is vaguely set for 2013.

There is no official announcement yet, but Nintendo listed NFS Most Wanted in its finnancial report in the Software Line-Up for the Wii U. Unfortunately there are no more details yet.

The Wii U is being released on November 18th in US.
 


Ok that's good. Let me know.
 


i haven't played the game myself but i have seen some negative response about it especially for those that used to play the original one. personally have played the original as well and having seen the trailers and review i just hope they don't called this game as NFS:Most Wanted. Many touted the most wanted was one of the best from NFS series so IMO EA banking on that popularity to make people jump on this game.
 


Yeah same here it's should have been NFS: MW2 or something on that those lines. But anyway it looks another short game to me There are ten drivers who can wanted by the cops and you have to earn the SL points in order to race, then when you beat them then you have to shunt down the member by crashing into them. (Note: when your racing against a wanted driver the cops will be on you) There aren't a lot car choices in this game you have to drive around Fairheaven city to found the cars, however you can get parts by winning races but not before you got Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) playing the same races over and over and over again.

Keyboard controls? You aren't supposed to play racing games on a keyboard...

And Criterion created the game actually, so EA was working with it...
