In early 2005.Someone from EA or someone outside EA.Leaked information about some serious things at the time.Xbox360 (at the time named just Xbox2 Because it wasn't announced.)And most importantly NFS:MW.NFSCars even posted the news back in January of 2005.
As posted from SPOnG.com:
World Exclusive: Need for Speed: Most Wanted – EA’s Leading Franchise Blown Apart Only Here !
SPOnG can today exclusively blow the lid on Electronic Arts’ next Need for Speed game, detailing the company’s thinking on the leading franchise update for the first time.
The series will ditch the Underground moniker, with the new game carrying the title Need for Speed: Most Wanted. The information, leaked to us last week, states that the multi-platform offering will ship across the world in late 2005.
Most Wanted will be available for Xbox 2, Xbox, PlayStation 2, GameCube, PC, PSP and “Game Boy Advance or Nintendo DS.” A pleasant added value news snippet details a “…simultaneous ship, with the Xbox2 platform, which indicates a late 2005 release for Xbox2 too. Though whether the machine will go under the ‘Xbox2’ name is unclear. But the launch period, as dated by the world’s leading third-party publisher, can now be pencilled in.
The picture we get is of a game that is not really too different from the Underground duo, with one key difference: Most Wanted takes the series back to its roots, with police chases making up the body of the gameplay. (Yipppeeee !!!! <----- Vipers personal Observation )
The game will feature:
Outwit cops missions
Visual customisation to manage your ‘heat meter’
Epic Hollywood-style police pursuits with up to 15 cop cars on screen
Skill-based cop evasion and upgradable evasion technology
Interactive environments conducive to eluding cops
There is also a rap-sheet system, in which a player’s notoriety is upped by performing more dangerous manoeuvres in the view of following police.
Eight game modes are promised:
Multiple point races
Toll booth races
Speed trap photos
Outrun
Outrun best route
Circuit
Sprint
Knockout – Cost to state, pursuit milestones and headlines
Milestones
Four ‘distinct regions’ will be offered, along with real time weather and an evolving environment.
*There will be no racing during the night-time*
all the action taking place between sun up and sunset.
Online play will be included with what is described as a ‘similar feature set to NFSU2’ though this time, world-wide play will be included with no conflict between the North American and European versions.
Around 100 motors will be on offer. ‘Asian import (tuners), exotics, American muscle and Euro imports,” as detailed by EA.
Oh, one more thing! Burnout 4 is slated for Xbox 2 launch.
We’ll post screens when they become available.

Looking at least we were promised around 100 cars for NFSMW.We had 32.(around 40 with the bonus cars that you can use only in quick race)
and Few removed game modes.The most interesting seems like Outrun and Outrun Best Route.And then there's headlines.
What do you guys think?
