Got this 1.5 years ago. While no game comes close to UG or UG2; this feels like a pretty good arcade racer.

EA needs to bite the bullet and bring Underground back.

Does this one have the same feel and amount of car customization as Heat?

I played and beat Heat, but I only played this game for a few hours. From my initial impressions it seemed to have as much if not a little more customization.

This one has more visual customization, about the same performance customization. But unfortunately it's just not a good game overall. I finished it once and that will be only time for me. I would play Heat again instead.

True. Too bad EA refused to create digital versions of the classics and delisted many because their licenses expired. Our only hope is to get our hands on the physical versions made for old school consoles or the CDs for PC. The classics were the best and don't compare.

Agreed. I still have my boxed copy of the original Most Wanted for PC. That game introduced me to Bullet For My Valentine. Ahh the memories. Sweet jagged and blurry low-res memories..

This is honestly an excellent game if you turn off the dumb tire smoke color effects or change them to regular smoke. Really enjoyed it and they did tons of updates on it so dont rely on the ratings when it first came out.

Can it be played with a keyboard? I remember going from Underground 2 to Most Wanted and unless you used an analog control stick the cars NEVER had traction, it sucked.

Is it worth it getting just the standard game or should you get the ultimate edition?

If it weren't for the added EA DRM, it would probably be worth it
