    Uhmm.. not so sure why there's so many bad reviews..? But this game is awesome, at least that's what I think. Graphics are decent, gameplay is great! I definitely recommend it! Playing it with the nunchuck or even the classic controller pro makes it easier to navigate.

    Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is a really good racing-game on the Nintendo Wii. It convinces with the typical NfS-feeling, a 4-player-splitscreen-mode, and a lot of different cars

    Lacks any real impact. [Jan 2011, p.80]

    Poor AI, limps physics, forgettable track layouts and a general absence of excitement. [Christmas 2010, p.59]

    Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit on Wii is a very poor excuse for a racer that feels like a slap in the face compared to its PS3/Xbox 360 cousin.
