Need For Speed: Most Wanted tips

Do Not Get Busted

First save.Then if you almost busted and you cant escape pause and turn off your PS2. Then when you turn it back on you wont be in pursuit or be busted.

Demo Derby/Way To Lose Cops

If you're being tailed by cops, go to the college hospital and go through the fences onto the helipad. If a cop follows you, ram him off. (note: this is also a great cooldown spot!)

Bonus $10,000

If you have a saved game file from Need For Speed: Underground 2 on your memory card or hard drive, you'll get an extra $10,000 in Career mode.

Avoid Sargent Cross

When Sargent Cross's team pulls up in front of you, throw the car into a powerslide U-turn. This will help you avoid being boxed in by the anti-street-racer squad.

Quick Evade

To get away from the cops: Go to the baseball stadium, in Rosewood. When you are in the pursuit press the left button on the D-pad - this brings up the map. Go to the Rosewood section and find the two closest Pursuit Breakers (orange triangles - they should be really close together). Set your GPS (clicking the 'A' button on the Pursuit Breaker) and go there. Go on either side of the stadium. Go and hit one of the sides (a big sign), it should fall, and you should be in the stadium. Go through the other side but don't knock this one down. You should now be facing the the road. Turn around (now facing the stadium). Go through and THIS time knock it down. You should be inside the stadium, and the entrances are blocked off - the cops can't get in to you. They should lose you and you will evade them. If done right, it works every time.
