I have bought my 2nd-hand copy of NFS most wanted from gamestop store in Italy last month. the game disc is very clean and there is no single scratch on it. Unfortunately, When I try to play the game it hangs on the title screen and can not be loaded.

is there any one who can help?

I assume you're talking about the Wii U version? That was about the most glitchy game that I ever owned on the system. I never had the problem that you mentioned, but I once had the game lock-up on me 4 times in 5 minutes. The game probably froze on me about 20 times during my 16 hours of total play time. After that I gave up and traded it in.

I know the Wii U version was praised up and down by reviewers, but none of them ever seemed to mention that the game simply doesn't work all that well. Whether you call them freezes, lock-ups, or crashes, the game is pretty much unplayable. You don't want to be seconds away from winning a tough race, only to have the Wii U freeze, resulting in you having to unplug the machine from the wall.

Anyways, I wish you luck, but I'd honestly recommend another NFS game on a different system if you can. Hot Pursuit on PS3 is outstanding. No performance issues, and I happen to think it's a better game all around. There's a lot more content in that game. In Most Wanted every car was limited to only have 5 races. Lame.

My game library ranges from Mario Kart to Call of Duty to Tales of Xillia to Diablo 3 to Forza. To me gaming is about having fun - not blindly supporting only one company while thumbing your nose at "the evil other systems."

@larry_koopa: I own the game since launch and never had any problem you mentioned.

As for the topic, go back to the shop and ask to be refunded. I guess you have 2 weeks of time. Ciao!

I bought mine on the eShop, never had any problems beyond the rare crash. It could have used a patch to be sure, but I found it quite stable for the most part..

@MFii, do you have your WiiU connected to the internet? There is a huge patch that you need to download which sorts out the majority of the issues.
The only thing that I know of that can still freeze up the console is pressing the home button while the game is saving. Other than that, the game should run with no problems.

Yes, this game was a glitchy mess when it was released (one of the worst i've ever seen, especially on WiiU). They fixed a lot of its problems with patches. So try to download those first, if possible. If not, get a refund. Just because it's a clean or scratch-free disc, doesn't mean it's not broken
