Need for Speed was started back in the days, and I haven't really had a taste for retarded racing games, because I found Gran Turismo much more exciting. Then came Underground 2, which got me into racing games like a cow on a diet. I loved the tune-ups, the great car designs and the slick graphics. (And Brooke...). Then when Most Wanted was released, I went plumb-crazy. This was a huge improvement since Hot Pursuit in 2003, so it was a great opportunity. But I found something missing, originality. The cop chases I've seen in Grand Theft Auto was way more exciting because your car got trashed along the way. In Most Wanted, the car seems bulletproof. The police can ram you from heck to worse and it still won't pull off a scratch. In short, Most Wanted could've been a much better game only if there was any means of "damage."
