NFS Most Wanted's Rushed PSP Port
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 9 янв 2021
- Need for Speed Most Wanted 5-1-0 is likely the best handheld version of the game, but stacked up against other PSP racing heavyweights like Midnight Club 3, it doesn't stand a chance.

oh man the ports of this game are all over the place
yuuuuup. I can(‘t) wait to play the DS one..
For versions like the PSP, DS and GBA games I don't think port is the right word when they're completely different games
@@charizardoreo Depends on if you're new school or old school. "Completely different games" was often the norm during the 5th console generation and before. So they were arguably carrying on that legacy :D
PS3 didn't get a version of the game
@@sabokgaming3438 the PS2 version was available digitally on PS3 for a while, longer in the EU than the US, but it's long delisted.
Yay. I get to be reminded of playing this game...
I’m so sorry.
Lol I discovered the game from your video
Same here
DADDYCEVICK, I DONATE 1 ENTIRE DOLLAR TO YOUR PATREON A MONTH😂😂😂 ilybb
Wow!!What are you doing here ray?
The rubberbanding on this game is absolutely insane.
According to nfsmw, a golf gti, is somehow faster than a carrera gt
@@ididntmeantoshootthatvietn5012 mostly bc the time it takes to upgrade a carrera gt is longer than the amount of time you'd save by using it - every starter car is pretty much competitive for the entire game
@@martin-gt7id He meant that a slow car suddenly can go 420km/h because of rubberbanding.
I remember how the Audi TT, Corvette and Evo had this insane rubberbanding and go-kart like handling
Underground 1: first time?
Ah yes classic EA:
get smol studios
they make good titles
overwork them
studio collapse
either buy or leave them
RIP Black Box, Maxis, and other studios
Ghost games?
Maxis is still alive tho.
@@lord_vwphaeton1883 You mean EA Gothenburg?
@@SuprAmEnteM what?
All r good studios ya all just most wanted fan boys
I remember getting this thinking "Well they can port GTA to PSP, so they can port NFS Most Wanted" and being shocked at how limited it was. Interestingly, NFS Carbon for PSP does successfully port most wanted's open world and cop chases to the PSP.
I really enjoyed carbon own the city a
on psp so much.. that one was actually was really enjoyable to play it felt like a home console game with borderline ps1/ps2 graphics haha
I hope we can see the Motorstorm series here one day
I have a sealed copy of Arctic Edge for PS2 sitting on my shelf.
@@Kaceydotme O_O
@@Kaceydotme open it
hell yes! Arctic Edge is so good!
@@Kaceydotme 😳😳😳😳😳😳😳
Good thing you mentioned the Most Wanted map design, Rockport is surprisingly memorable for a racing game, same with Bayview from Underground 2. It is nice to free roam around and listen to the soundtrack.
True. I also had feeled the same. Most of the tracks in this game are reskins of Bayview from U2 and there is two of these tracks taken from Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 also.
Bro, the Carbon port is COMPLETELY different from the of Carbon. New map, new story, new cars, etc etc etc... You tried that?
I'll get there :)
Definitely had more fun with Own the City than I did for 5-1-0.
@@Jimmeeehhh I’ve spent YEARS playing NFSC: Own the City, honestly one of the best PSP racing games
@@josephdiaz3057 hate to break it but midnight club in the psp are greater,challenging but frustrating at the same time.Trucks going the race track in purpose,bots find some way to win,etc...I also like NFSC:OTC,but I'd like MC3(Remix is awesome,too,but it's an rushed mess)more
The map its Rockport with mirror effect and deleted beach area.
Fun Fact: I played this version before I played the 360 version so I thought this game was incredible...boy was I wrong.
Imho, Carbon: Own the city was the best NFS game on PSP. I think it's the only one (!) to feature an actual open world.
And the story, boy, the story on that NFS is very deep and strong, one of the best of all NFS.
@@senormartillo5724 yeah, i agree. It's simple, not annoying and just exciting. I wish they tried out this darker thone in the newer games, instead of making an old Fast&Furious variations again and again.
The map in that game is just partial Most Wanted map mirrored
It also has better crew system than the main game
Funny how Carbon while not being the most beloved game in the series got the best versions on all 3 handhelds from the series
@@father042 no best gba game is either mw or ug1. For ds I’ll say it’s very close with pro street
I “loved” this game so much as a kid. Countless road trips switching between this, ridge racer, gta liberty city stories, namco arcade classics, and all 103 songs on the memory card
Goddamn most wanted looks so fucking good on xbox 360. Even with the 360 textures the PC version has a long way to go. I hope Osdever finished the 360 mod properly.
It was actually one of the games that I bought for launch on Xbox 360 these were
NFS MW'05
Project Gotham Racing 3
Kameo
too bad it runs a bit weird and never got backwards compatibility on xbox one
Or EA could stop being lazy as fuck and make a remaster of MW05 just by porting X360 version to all platforms and adding some missing and NFS Carbon content that was meant to be in the game(like Nissan 350z and Skyline for instance or 6 plager races). They could do some minor improvements like animated driver in each car, proper models for characters in their cars based of actors from blacklist pictures and cinematics.
That would be enough and quite easy if they didnt loose the source code for X360 version.
@@Kacpa2 I think licensing issues may get in the way of that though.
@@GenerationZ313 It wouldnt be too hard, if they doke HP2010. Its just the music licensing cost and if its tok hard they could cut it. We would mod missing songs in on pc anyway. Music importing added to EA Trax that would work lile HP2010's and MW2012 user playlists on console versions. While cars overlap with their current licenses almost completely making it cheaper for few cars that are missing it(like Fiat i presume since they didnt feature fiat cars in anything after)
Ok so I wasn't tripping as a kid this game was always off to me
This game is dog crap. The acceleration for the cpu is broken and unreal. Makes the game so unfair even if they crash or you force them to crash. They pick up 100 times faster than any car you use. Ridiculous, I can’t believe I beat this as a kid
How about a full video on Carbon: Own the City? It was one of the first couple of PSP games I had when I bought my PSP and I adored it as a kid. I'd put it just a little bit behind Burnout Legends for two of the best PSP racing games. I recently downloaded the ISO for it and played it on my phone again and it still holds up fairly well.
This makes me happy knowing Carbon Own the City is good
Yeah, and on it's own its proof that we could've had pretty much 1 to 1 port of real Most Wanted with open world cops. Its such wasted potential. It would also be beneficial to people who want to play PSP games via emulation on their phones. We still have Own the City, but Most Wanted would be more enjoyable with its soundtrack and gameplay, OTC only lacks few minor mechanics like pursuit breakers. Sadly when Undercover port time came around they fucked it up insanely badly, PS2 version got gameplay better than both PC and PSP Undercover.
@@Kacpa2 Is the PS2 version of Undercover actually worth playing/emulating? I played NFS on PS2 up to Pro Street then I bought my PS3 and didn't buy another NFS game again until Rivals. Was always curious about Undercover and I'm getting an itch for old school NFS again
Also, try emulating the GC version of Most Wanted on your phone. Dolphin emulator actually works decently enough and that game runs fine if you've got a newer flagship phone or a phone with good enough specs.
@@aninfinitemindofmusicandreams It is. Its fun even if a bit buggy. I felt like i played MW05 for the first time when i went to play it on PS2 2 years ago. Its pretty much day time NFS Carbon but soundtrack plays in everything like in Most Wanted with composwd music being only in pursuits.
And unlike pc and psp undercover it has interesting looking and colourful map and scenery even if layout is based lf bits of rockport, you wont really recognize it as much because Rosewood is really heavily edited woth unique town inside it and Rockport downtown is mirored scenery makes enough of a difference. Plus PSP version does the same but everything is boring and drab yellow-gray looking like bad attempt at copying MW05 artstyle. It has fun, warm and tropical atmosphere of ps2 with some unique missions while mess ups are just silly and funny.
Handling is really fun, cops are bit bugged with how they spawn but still much better than pc and MUUUCH better than psp police.
TLDR; Yes i recommend it wholely its fun to play and to look at, succeds where all other versions failed miserably even if it is also a bit bugged but only because Exient(devs hired by ea to make it last minute) had so few time.
P.S. it also runs better on android if you play the Wii version. Easily full speed with Snapdragon 835 or better. Almost full speed on weaker snap dragons and Exynos cpus. MW05 doesnt run to well for me sadly in have Snapdragon 820
Yeah that one was cool. 510 was dog crap
Kacey I'm not sure if you know, but that tweet from Toyota was just from a social media manager for Toyota UK and the higher ups from Japan have said that it's not how they view things. It would also not make sense as they have licensed their vehicles in Initial D and other Japanese racing games during that period.
The most probable answer IMO is some sort of exclusivity deal with Polyphony Digital (Gran Turismo developer), which would be typically Japanese.
But then why is the Hilux AT 38 IN FH4?
I used to play this game on my PSP, tbh the AI and the cops in this game is somehow more frustrating than NFS Heat. Good review btw, I hope you'll be reviewing Gran Turismo, Need For Speed Prostreet, Need For Speed Shift, DiRT 2 and Driver 76 on the PSP.
I remember my friend jokingly saying before official reveal of HP Remastered, that it's going to be remaster of this game because of the 5:10 trailers.
I saw so many people stating that as if it were a fact. Who the fuck would remaster this turd and why?
@@VeraTheTabbynx Wdym isn't nfsmw 2005 good
@@fractodacto Most wanted is. NOT Most wanted 5-1-0. The portable port is legendarily terrible, and you only need watch this video to see why.
@@VeraTheTabbynx ah I see
I saw what u did there 5:10 timestamp and 510 NFS lol
In my 510 playthroughs, I always buy the eclipse. Once fully upgraded it handles great, good top speed almost (200 mph)
And powerful acceleration. You can use it for most of the blacklist until you have access to audi TT. Then afterwards any super car.
midnight club 3 is probably my favorite racing game
Found your channel today, been binge watching your videos. Criminally underrated.
The PSP, in my eyes, really does have the best selection of games for a handheld ever. Bought a 3DS years later and felt so underwhelmed by the library. With the PSP you could get PS2 quality titles. Midnight Club 3 and The Warriors being prime examples. On the other hand you have these wonderfully odd ports like The Godfather, where all the customization and free roaming was cut, or 007 From Russia With Love where half the game was missing.
I remember getting FRWL on the PSP and was so upset that I beat it in an hour.
I remember saving up and buying my own PSP (the first version). I only had enough money left for a used copy of Tiger Woods PGA. But I've never played it: I tried to get the disc itself out of the UMD. With a screwdriver ...
Haha all the while cursing out Sony for packaging it in such a dumb case no doubt
It's really funny that this game has only 2 points lower Metacritic score than UG Rivals and the excellent port of Midnight Club 3
HOUSE REAL BIG, CARS REAL BIG, ____ REAL BIG, EVERYTHING REAL BIG, RIMS REAL BIG, POCKETS REAL BIG, RINGS REAL BIG, LET ME TELL YOU HOW I LIVE
You 100% getting a sub for that midnight club reference I literally love u
Holy shit I played The RUN first on the wii and I think I was Stockholm syndromed into thinking it looked great until I saw the 2 seccond clip of it in this video lol, I legitimately had to go back and double take because I was shocked to remember how bad it was, definitely going back to watch your The RUN video now
i havent seen many reviews of handheld games like these. It's interesting, Keep it up!
lmao I just realised that the Downtown Expressway circuit in this game was ripped off from Outer Ring from Underground 2, the very first circuit in the game.
You should also note that GBA and DS versions of Most Wanted use nearly identical track layouts to this game.
So glad I stumbled across your channel. I have so much amazing content to binge now. Superb stuff my man.
You forgot to mention that Ronnie drives the road version of M3 GTR with Razor's iconic livery while Razor drives the sport version of M3 GTR with a random red and blue livery.
The only rivals who have both the same car and livery are Sonny, Izzy, Big Lou and Earl
Its not Razor's livery, but Player's. But yeah cars and liveries are all over the place in that game
Burnout Legends
was the best racing game for the PSP
Agree. Myself even borrowed my friend's PSP just to play it. Good times.
Don't forget Ridge Racer!
yeah, it's between Legends and Motorstorm Arctic Edge for me.
I wanna give a shoutout to OutRun 2006: Coast 2 Coast for my Sega homies in the comments.
Midnight club 3
Another Need For Speeds on the PSP that would be interesting to see are:
Carbon Own The City
Pro Street
Shift
And I wish some later games would have some port like Hot Pursuit
ProStreet was very boring and sucked compared to the DS version
Shift is literally just Burnout Dominator reskin and plays more like Prostreet than actual Prostreet on the PSP
@@father042 and Carbon OTC is literally the very best NFS on PSP
My man can you hook me up with the pfp sauce?
@@theodiscusgaming3909 Grey Wolf, Kemono Friends (fan art)
The big problem in Pro Street PSP is the bad control commands, bad car customization and the fun Canyon track from PC its a boring and calm race track in PSP version. I wish the Canyon from PSP was the same thing from PC.
I love this channel so much brother! You just now seen to be finding your footing, I really do think as long as you stick with it, you will be one of the big dogs in no time! Love the content!
Hey Kacey! New subscriber here. The reason I subbed is for the racing game content, dirt 5 review and gran turismo retrospective etc. I would love love love to see more from you! Great quality videos! Looking forward to more racing and non racing videos. Thanks brother
your videos are so niche, I love them
I have so much good memories about this game tbh. Nice video. Keep it up. Keep going fast😉.
Duval county, Florida? Me too. You just got a new sub, good sir
Subscribed man, great video
Own The City is gonna make your very happy when you get a hold of it... /s
Another great video, looking forward to whatever comes next!
510 felt so sterile and they gutted the customization so bad
that cutsomization was the appeal that made me love Underground Rivals
I play the DS version and oh boy stuff gets rough there
0:39 House real big! Cars real big! Belly real big! Everything real big!
dude how have you only got 28k subs... found your channel today and was shocked to see as your content quality is immaculate and nobody covers these bad pc ports like you, keep grinding man :) could you do a video on some more bad/weird ports:)
More are coming :)
I personally enjoyed this game, and more so than Rivals or any of the following ones.
Watching the video, suddenly remembered playing Test Drive Unlimited on the PSP. Long hours of rounding Oahu for some reason...those were the days
Oh man I always called those two large turns in Rockport “The Rockport Curves”. So many races and heat 5 chases were thrown on those curves
Still better than crossroads
I'll have you know fast and furious crossroads is one of the most superior narrative racing games out there. That game alone has surpassed every need for speed including your beloved most wanted.
@@waterbottlecupcan4026 Ew
in the game, its fell like the cars are to small and the camera dosen't help.
The intro song activated a part of my brain that hasn’t been accessed since 2005. Holy nostalgia
Man, love this in-depth review. 12year old me absolutely loved this game but I need to agree with this review. Great content here!
I understood the reference in the thumbnail! >:D
NSFMW Blacklist member sitcom when?
Ima sub now before you reach 100k.
KACEY: "...released in December, day to day with the main console release."
ME: I knew it!!!
Does this mean, PSP Carbon soon?
I have one, but the game itself is super buggy and half of the map dissappear. (Sorry for my grammar mistake.)
Carbon Own the City for the PSP is such an upgrade from this. It's still flawed, but it's the best NFS game for the PSP. It even does some things better than the console version of Carbon. Hope to see a review of it on your channel!
The day my mom got me my first PSP, I bought this game with it, and took it back the same day, no free roam was a deal breaker for me back then.
Yes we need another unraveled video from Gilbert
If you ever review any psp racing games can you ever check wipeout pure or flat out headon
Isn't Flatout Head On nearly identical to PC and console versions of Flatout 2?
@@father042 its a good thing
Ever heard about the series corvette on the ps2? You should do a review on it, fits your channel. Love the content
I loved this game in my psp, the sound track was good too
Recently found your channel, and so far you're still pretty great. Love your coverage of more niche titles!
But... I just gotta mention. Did you just mention you're from Duval County? Not to be weird or anything but that caught me off guard as a Jacksonville native myself! If I didn't mishear you, wonder if there's any chance we passed each other in school?
Kacey a cute. Glad you're covid-free! Excited to see more content in the minimme genre!
Another great video
If I wasn't mistaken, I believe the double down challenge is available after most races if you had reached max heat level before finishing the race.
and while it only gives you a little amount of bonus bounties, if you happens to race every single one of the double down challenges that the game threw at you, later down the line you would realize that you had already unlocked boss battles without completing each and every one of the races they have to offer.
I'm also certain that while the game didn't directly mention it, it also double your cash reward, so a $4500 reward became $9000 and it makes money making much, much easier.
Would’ve been nice to know. Still probably wouldn’t have done it because of how much extra money I had but still 😅
Excited for that Horizon 2 video!
And I'm hoping you'll take a look at Rise of the Tomb Raider on the 360.
It's amazing how good that looks especially compared to other not so great 360/PS3 ports from around then such as Shadow of Mordor and Dragon Age Inquisition
Seems that in the PSP era of NFS games they alternate between amazing and shit with the exception of Undercover. Can't wait to see you review the PSP version of ProStreet
I have played Midnight Club 3 DUB Edition a LOT!
I remembered my PSP-3000, that game was way ahead of this time! I didn't know that was a PS2 port
I was so lucky that I bought a McLaren F1 then modify it with a F1 GTR bodykit, gud old times
I am so nostalgic for NFSMW 510.
I beat this game like 12 years ago when I was 10. And holy shit did it get FRUSTRATINGLY difficult in the second half and slowly gets harder.
I absolutely love the game, it was the first game I played properly on the PSP. However absolutely everything you said is true.
I'm just so glad I ended up getting Carbon:Own the city instead of 5-1-0 (along with GTPSP) a decade ago for my PSP-1005, lol.
Kid: “Mom, can we get the original NFS Most Wanted?”
Mom: “We have NFS Most Wanted at home.”
NFS Most Wanted at home:
Still better than whatever the fuck the Nintendo DS port of Most Wanted was supposed to be. I’d rather people play the Game Boy Advance version and just forget that the DS version was ever a thing
I played this game once and a half through. Early Game Tracks are better for late game cars? I have to check that out!
Oh, NFS Shift, how much I can't wait for your PSP Review... Played that fella 3 times 100%
Whattt shout out Duval 🤟🏾
This was my first NFS game, compared to the other NFS games on PSP, the sense of speed on 5-1-0 is so much better imo
Damn, I just played this game again
Will we get a look at the carbon port for psp? Got fond memories of that one!
This game kicked my ass as a kid
Looking at my copy of this game on my shelf and all I get is bad memories from it
Let the past stay behind you
Have you tried the carbon port yet? From what I can recall, that was pretty much the carbon port from the ps2 except stripped down in some areas.
Midnight Club and Motorstorm: Arctic Edge were my favorite racing games on psp
Excellent Video
You should do more reviews
@@BlueflagAlpha thanks but with College getting in my way, its hard to do more reviews
The PSP was my first game system and this was my first game. Before that all I played were flash games, so I didn't understand what a "Save game" was, so for the first week I would constantly replay the first 30 minutes of the game. While the gameplay was worse than the console versions, they carried over the entire soundtrack and that was just as memorable as anything that I did in the game. I had my moms apple earbuds and I felt like I was THE shit listening to all that edgy music. I think my PSP is broken, but it still had the memory card in it last time I checked. I still think about getting a used one and taking my lime green cobalt with white tribal graphics for a spin once again.
car go vroom
MW 2005 and Carbon are my only fav NFS games. I don't know whether it happened because I grow up and my taste changed or something else
I enjoyed this game as it was part of my childhood so I really don't see a problem with it
growing up as a kid and only having this one game cause we were broke, id take the psp with me everywhere and listen to the playlist of this game for hours and it developed my entire taste in music up to this day- i also loved the game and forced myself to adapt to the horrible mechanics since its the only one i had to play lmaoooo i would get furious at the broken mechanics
Can I request an NFS Shift 2 review on Xbox 360? I have such a love and hate relationship with that game it's unreal, and am sure as hell you would go on a 10 minute full blown rant regarding the handling, physics and AI :)
Gonna revisit nfs undercover for ps2? I would love more under the hood details for it
I'd be glad if someone could help me out.
I'm stuck on 96% and i can't seem to go past this. I've completed Tuner Takedown & all blacklist races. The problem is that it says I've completed 124 out of 128 races in career and indeed on 4 blacklist members i haven't unlocked the second bonus events as i can't get all extra respect points by being chased by the police after the races because some of the races simply don't give me that option after I win (despite me being chased by the cops during them). Is this a bug in the game (like with Burnout Dominator) and can I consider it passed on 100% or if not how can I get those extra respect points in order to unlock the 2nd bonus events and win them?
Would really appreciate some help with this.
I couldn't even beat this game as a kid, idk if I was just bad or the rubber banding was too ridiculous but I had experience with racing games already with Burnout 3, Revenues & GT.😆
I didn't notice any of this when my cousin gave me and my brother a psp with this and fifa 2010 to share and I monopolized the console😅
I played this game to completion back in 2006, it was extremely frustrating.
the cop AI in this game took notes from the the driver 1 and 2 games on ps1 where they rubber banned and are ruthless
Hell yeah my childhood
I bought this game at the same time as Resident Evil 4. One guess as to which game got played more.
3.26 Valtteri, it's James, let your rival through
The thing I hate about 510 is that The police is only against you and the traffic hates you, other than that, I love the game
