    With solid and exciting gameplay, great graphics and sound, and a fully functional online mode, PSP gamers can’t expect much more.

    Sure the police AI can be highly questionable, the visuals are pretty blah as is the sound, but on the track, 5-1-0 is a good time on the go, and is a marked improvement from "Rivals."

    It just fails to capture the urgency of the console version to a degree that I wish they'd left the cop angle out entirely. [Jan 2006, p.157]

    A game with ridiculous physics, hard-to-master controls and a repetitious event scheme.

    An awesome racer, tuned to the top. Some things annoy me sometimes, like the cops unbelievable skill of keeping up with you always and the thing that after about 80% of the races you just can't win any more. But for anyone who thinks that Ridge Racer's 360-degree-drifting-style is unreal, this is a definite buy.… Expand

    When i first played Need fore speed: Most wanted 5-1-0 (NFS:MW) i was disappointed, but the more i played the more fun i had. the cop angle provides tons of fun as even boring timetriles races turn into races agains the cops. however this games best feature is in it's slow-mo driveing mode. this feature alows for you to avoid things that would have made this game frustrating, defenetaly worth the $20 it now costs.… Expand
