almost perfect racing but sadly lacking of pursuits
The graphics on the ps2 while being better than the previous game aren't completely up to date but they are good enough so you wont get bothered by them too much.
The in-game sounds are realistic as pretty much usual and the music wasnt bad but of course EA cant cater to everyones needs so they did a pretty good job there.
The story mode i felt was too short, with only like 4 regions to take, although each one had like 5-8 smaller regions in it. The groups concept was cool and allowed creativity which the logo and name. Also which pleased the creative gamers was the autosculpt which was great to completely customize your car, also the different classes of cars helped you pick which car you would want and for what event. The wingman system is a good idea but wasnt well put out on the game. Cops were in the game but they were almost never around and the only time i could take them for a nice chase was in the challenge series. So in all its a stylish racing game but lacks the carnage that Most Wanted had. If they were to combine this with Most Wanted it would make a killer game.
