You're better off getting the first Hot Pursuit instead of this piece of crap.

No, no, nooooooo!! Christ! What the hell were they thinking!?
Okay, yes, the GRAPHICS (and that's all that matters nowadays apparently) may have improved a little tiny bit, but the lack of action replay and dashboard (FPV) view, combined with a total lack of imagination and the same understeer problems as most other NFS games, make this a total dud.
Seriously.. the previous NFS3: Hot Pursuit and High Stakes offer more gameplay than this piece of doodoo. Get one of those if you really must have one of these subpar driving games. Personally, however, I wouldn't get any NFS game. Bad physics, very arcadeish and they all have that driving over ice feel.
The sad fact is that even GTA and the ol' Carmageddon have more gameplay and better driving physics than NFS games.

(under)Steer far away from this one if you know what's good for ya.
