Resolution's Steve K Peacock writes: Hot Pursuit splits the action between more traditional high octane racing, complete with extravagant super cars and outlandish (if limited) weaponry. The focus is on the race in this mode, evading the machinations of the wily police and those of your other competitors, in the hope of reaching the finish line first. In essence, it’s what you’ve come to expect from a racing game: fast cars, sneaky shortcuts, interesting tracks and plenty of on-road tactics to bring into play. Do you use your weapons to cause an opponent to spin out and explode, or push him off the track into one of Hot Pursuit’s long-cuts – alternate paths that trick the racer’s hind-brain instinct that says anything off the main track must, by definition, be shorter – and keep him around as fodder for the cops.
After nearly three decades of NFS games, here's a list of the best Need For Speed titles that have ever been released in the past years, ranked by The Nerd Stash.
Paul writes - "EA know a good thing when they see it, and for multiple years November was Need for Speed month. In a break from the usual routine, I'm going to be looking back at two games here, released in 2005 and 2010 respectively. The earlier game is Need for Speed: Most Wanted, which has the distinction of being one of the very best in the franchise. The second game comes from 2010, and is Need for Speed Hot Pursuit; which I'll talk about just as the Remastered version of the game has hit the stores."
I completely adore this game! In fact its probably my favorite racing game. I recently dusted off my xbox 360 to play Most Wanted 2005. Still a great game, though I do not remember there being such horrible performance. Like massive frame-pacing issues. screen tearing, latency. If any game ever truly needed to be remastered, it this one for sure!
A pulled retailer page previously listed a November release date.
I would be excited but NFS is basically dead in the water at this point, a shell of its former self.
This game is awesome, got full 1000 points a couple of days ago.
is all i can think about when i start this game up.it is by far the most connected game EVER!if your looking for one of the GREATEST games to play with friends get HOT PURSUIT!
