The demo was pretty fun; the Autolog seems really fun if a lot of your friends get this game - unfortunately I doubt any of mine would.

I had doubts about giving it back to BlackBox, but the demo got me excited. Nice to see that Autolog has returned, I have really fond memories of competing against other Giant Bomb members.

I hope the PC version won't get shafted in post-launch support like Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit was.

This looks like the Fast and the Furious of racing games I've always wanted the Need for Speed games to be. Big, dumb, car chase action movies. If they can pull off these awesome set pieces well, this could be an enjoyable experience.

It's really too bad the car handling physics are a bit on the bad side. The cars have no weight. It feels like you're driving on plastic rather than rubber. They should have stolen the Hot Pursuit model.

This looks kind of great. I'll totally rent this, at the very least.

Ahh, resisting an officer of the law. Only ever not a terrible fucking idea in the context of dumb action plots.

Meh...

Didn't enjoy the demo much. I felt the handling was atrocious, NFS Hot Pursuit felt way better in comparison, but I never picked that up after release either. Won't be getting this.

The secret to stopping a police car is to kick it.
