[edit] Plot

While driving through Carbon Canyon, the player has a flashback to escaping from Sergeant Cross. Immediately afterwards, Cross slams into the back of the player's BMW M3 GTR. It is revealed that Cross was fired from the Rockport Police Department for letting the player escape. Cross has now became a bounty hunter - and his first target is you.

After chasing you through the canyon, the player crashes their M3 into a truck. As Cross is about to capture you, Darius arrives in an Audi R8. Darius is the leader of the most powerful crew in the game, the Stacked Deck. Darius tells Cross to leave, as he will 'deal with you'. Soon after this, Nikki arrives in her Ford GT. Nikki is the game's 'eye candy', and it is revealed that she is the player's ex girlfriend.

The last time Nikki saw you was in a race against the main crew leaders in the city. She was meant to give a bag of money to the winner, but was mugged for it. Near the end of the race (you only see it in cutscenes), police sabotage the event. The only person to get out without being arrested is you. Understandably, Nikki hates you for what happened. Nikki is now Darius' girlfriend.

After Darius asks her to, she agrees to help you start off in the city again. Darius wants you to help him lock down the city for the Stacked Deck. After selecting a car, you eventually win over all the districts in the game. After locking down all the districts for the Stacked Deck, Darius tells you to meet him at the City Courthouse.

Upon meeting him, Darius allows Cross to arrest you. However, when Darius leaves, Nikki arrives and pays Cross off. Part of the arrangement is that Nikki races with you. Nikki has realised that the person who stole the bag of money was Darius.

After locking down the Stacked Deck territory, you must race Darius on the city streets, and then in the canyon. Upon his defeat, he says how there will always be someone faster than you. He gives you the keys to his R8 and then leaves in another car.

[edit] Trivia

  • When you are in Free Roam, you will see some billboards and ads advertising the Mazda MX-5. However, this car is not included in the game.
  • The Tuner crew Rotor4 includes all tuner cars (it was thought to be an all-Mazda rotary car crew) with Mazda 787B livery.
  • Palmont city is surrounded by Bayview and Rockport cities. When you are on the last canyon race (vs. Darius), when you fall off at the second hairpin, you will see the ray of lights from Bayview. The connection between the three cities will be touched upon Need for Speed: World Online.
  • When in Free Roam, when a crew member challenges you, some of their cars are in a different class. An example of this is a 21st Street crew member challenging you in a Mitsubishi Eclipse, a tuner car.
