About this Article

Why settle for one new real car when you can buy one video game with dozens of virtual rides? Plus, when you take these vehicles out on the highway, you don't have to worry about insurance, gas prices or speed limits. "Need for Speed: Most Wanted" is the most gleefully irresponsible of this year's racing games. It's all about vehicular mayhem while "Forza Horizon" takes the exemplary car-geek series off the racetrack and onto the open road.
