![]() ![]() It’s a fun mechanic and it works similarly to how it did in Underground and later for Racers, but slightly different if you play as a Cop. Nitrous is here, as not having it in a racing game, especially an NFS one, would’ve been simply weird at this point. But it’s not just a pure essence of Need for Speed 1 through Hot Pursuit 2. You select a race, choose a car, start racing, as simple as that. ![]() No car customization or tuning (apart from paint colours), no open world busywork, no laps, no story. Despite the fact that not much has been “remastered”.Īs a return to the classic Need for Speed formula, Hot Pursuit is all about fast expensive cars going from point A to point B along the picturesque roads, occasionally avoiding the police on the way. It felt like a “best of” compilation of the series and even 10 years later (well almost 11 now) in this Remastered form it remains amazing. After the “street racing” phase of the franchise, started in Underground, has grown stale, the new Hot Pursuit (not to be confused with the third game in the series from 98) suddenly revitalized the franchise by simply going back to its roots, while keeping all of the innovations from the 00s. After MW, however, there has been just one NFS game that I highly enjoyed and that game was Hot Pursuit (2010). ![]() And up until Most Wanted in 2005, the only title I didn’t play the year of release was Hot Pursuit 2. I’ve played them since the 3DO original, despite never being a huge fan of racing games. If it were late 90s-early 00s it would be impossible for me not to play and rant about NFS games. ![]()
