You'll have to ask EA to put it on Origin first, I believe, then maybe they'll consider making a deal with Steam along the way. On top of that, I'd like for more Sims games such as Simcity Original, Simcity 2000, and Simcity 3000 to come to Origin and then possibly Steam as well.

Yeah, sorry, but this is how EA tend to behave with their franchises. It's a downside of their idea of turning out yearly iterations of games - they become effectively obsolete too quickly.

So your only course of option is to either find out if there ever was a physical copy released and hope you can find someone with some new old stock or unused copy (doubtful in the extreme) or just contact EA support and ask them to consider turning it out.
What is the difference to the same named game from 2012 you are looking for?
This happens when one re-uses names.

The old one is nostalgic man
:teddy_talk: One of the first games I played on Xbox as a kid, I made the mistake of loaning it out and never seeing it again.

It's been awhile but I remember beating Razor and he was all hurt and when I pinkslipped him, he was like, "aww.. shucks! Christmas is around the corner, please don't take my sled" :D


Yup, I wouldn't mind owning a PC version, even it was offered on Epic


And unrelated, I do have PC Rallisport but I cant get it to run on a virtualbox or an emulated OS :-(
I might have to get an actual older PC with Windows XP to meet its game requirements :D

Oooh, Rallisport now you're talking!

This is another reason why I try to own as many platforms as I can - consoles have their faults but whne it comes to playing old games, none of that ♥♥♥♥ applies.

:teddy_talk: Yup, its too bad only Rallisport was released and not Rallisport 2.
Thankfully, I have WRC 1 through 4 to play on a Xbox 360 (PAL)

I have Rallisport on the orignal Xbox - one of the best games for that console. Still looks fantastic even today.

Old Game has a Garage Shop in it,
where as the New Game, you just hop from Car to Car as you are driving...

Difference is you loose Creativity
with the New Edition of the Game...

Old is better...

Honestly, ive already tried this for both
Most Wanted & Carbon, & sadly I was not successful...

I did find a copy of Carbon at my work,
but it ended up being for Mac only, even
though it said Microsoft PC on the Case of it... :(

The 2012 one is nowhere near as great as the original. It looks way better, and I like the jackspot mechanic, but other than that the original is superior in all aspects imo. The 2012 is by Criterion, who are behind the Burnout games, and that shows. Not that there's anything wrong with Burnout -- quite the opposite, as 3 is one of my all-time favourite games just like the original Most Wanted.

The 2005 MW is physical only afaik (I have it for the Xbox and PC, runs even on Win 10). The age of digital gaming came later.

Yep, this. EA never made the afford to deliver a digital version of this game so you can only order it as a boxed version.
You can search as long as you want, you'll never find a (legit and legal) digital copy, sadly.

At this time, at least to my knowledge, there's no way to get a digital copy of Most Wanted 2005.

Your only hope is to buy a physical copy.
