Most Wanted, like other Need for Speed games, is essentially a driving and racing game, where the player selects one car and races against a time limit or other racers to reach a destination. Police chases have once again been integrated into certain racing sessions, in which the police employ vehicles and tactics to stop the player's car and arrest the player, like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2, and Need for Speed: Carbon. As players take control of faster cars and increasingly rely on nitrous oxide speed boosts, the oxide meter now refills automatically for the first time since its introduction in Underground, and driving sequences become fast-paced and intense similar to the Burnout series.

Why maxed out i get 10 fps???
PC Specs
From what I know, old games not always work well, if noted on performance.
PC Specs
Even at low settings and low resolution and with too much luck, I get 20 FPS. And here says my system can run it medium-high, lol.
PC Specs
well, it may be a combination of the OS and the hardware, say your using windows 7 your system would have to cope with the windows 7 as well as the game and they are probably presuming your using windows xp or lower considering its age.
PC Specs
Then you know this game released at Windows xp period ,i think the game is better played with Windows XP ,this game is not better when you play at next version of windows .
PC Specs
i didnt actually say that newer os was better for it? i dont know why it was running on 20 fps i was only saying if you are using windows 7 or higher that could be it
PC Specs
why its laggy (high graphics) on my pc? look at my specs!
PC Specs
Try at medium settings ,your graphics looks not set for high settings for this game .
PC Specs
I know I can max it out. I get around 10 fps maxed out. I also have mods. But really, I'm playing with 640*480 resolution and almost all the options at highest
