Need for Speed: Most Wanted is a street racing game developed by EA Black Box and published by Electronic Arts in 2005. It was a launch title for the Xbox 360.

After his tuned BMW is taken by Razor, the leader of Rockport's Blacklist of 15 street racers, the player works up the list race by race to win it back. The city is open to drive, and police pursuits are central: heat builds with every chase, and the police bring in roadblocks, spike strips and helicopters.
