The Definitive Version of Need For Speed: Most Wanted is the 2005 Black Edition on PC. The Black Edition's bonus cars and additional races set it apart from other releases. Not to mention the bonus features found on the additional DVD. The Black Edition was released on PS2 and XBOX at the same time, but the PC offers you a significantly better experience with improved graphics and a higher framerate.
