Pick One: Which Need For Speed Xbox Game Is Your Favourite?

It's time for another round of Pick One! This week, to celebrate the announcement of Need for Speed: Unbound, we thought we'd go back and look at the history of the series on Xbox, which extends to almost 20 years.

If you recall, we ran this poll last year when Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered arrived on Xbox Game Pass Ultimate, with Underground 2 getting 28% of the vote, and Most Wanted (2005) getting 27% of the vote.

Will it be that close again?! Remember, you can only pick one!

Let's take a look at some highlights from the poll:

Need for Speed Underground 2 challenges gamers to immerse themselves in the tuner culture, exploring an expansive, free-roaming city divided into five distinct neighbourhoods.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted (2005)
