People comparing a "next gen" console to a current gen console ala fanboy stupidity.

Shouldn't the Wii U version look better then the version on systems that came out in 05/06? -ohbfrank-

Yes, it should. But everyone criticized the launch games for not looking better than 360/PS3 games, and when something does look better, they don't care. smh

New DLC/Area including famous movie cars. I might have to get the Smokey and the Bandit Firebird

I've owned this since Thanksgiving...need to give it a spin.

My fear is that it won't be enough like Burnout Paradise, and I'll just wish I was playing that instead.

It's just like Burnout Paradise while escaping from cops. Billboards, gates, taking down cars to add to own them, etc.

They're very similar but I'm sure you'll notice some differences... good AND bad.

I think the NFS single player "campaign" is actually better than Burnout, but unfortunately any progress you make pimping out cars doesn't carry over into multiplayer. And the entire selection of cars isn't immediately available online either. In single player all the cars are available from the start, it's just a matter of finding them. When you go online, you might have to put in some time and level up before you get the car you really like.

Amazon has Most Wanted for $14.99 now for the 360. But Wal Mart has a "complete" edition with all of the DLC bundled for $29.99 in stores. My question is would it be better to wait for the Wal Mart edition to go on sale with the DLC? Or is the DLC even worth it?

I can't find any info on what the complete edition includes. However, the Terminal Velocity pack is $15 alone which adds a whole new area to the map. If that's included, might as well get the complete edition.

I'm waiting for a sale on DLC since I already own the game.

According to the box art, it says something like "Over $20 of DLC included" or something like that. If it adds that much, I'll just wait it out until that one goes on sale.
