    Criterion Eh? I loved the 1st 2 Burnout games (purely for the smash up mode and multiplayer in general).

    Sign me up.

    It was the third. Then came High Stakes, Porsche Unleashed, Hot Pursuit 2, Console Ghetto Racer I-VIII. Hot Pursuit games were the best imo, even though the AI clearly was cheating (heavily) in HP2.

    We'll know how good this game is graphics wise when we see some actual gameplay footage.

    Good trailer, will wait 'til I've seen the game to comment.

    Anyone know the closing music though?

    I quite liked Most Wanted, had no supercars though so it was no Hot Pursuit.
    I'm liking that the helicopter makes a comeback in a similar vein to Hot Pursuit 2.

    I don't have it :(
    I have NFS 3 though...but I don't have all my custom cars anymore! :grr: The zcar was awesome, as was the batmobile :D
    I actually quite like both of them. Having just played HP2 on full whack on my laptop I can safely say my original computer was pants. Pentium III, 256MB of RAM and Intel graphics, WOO!

    Will play NFS 3 later, I promise. :p

    Yay. The original Hot Pursuit is the only NFS game I actually enjoyed!
    Hopefully this is a nice return to the original style :)
