    As far as the racing game genre goes Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit Remastered is one of the coolest and freshest around. Of course, the brilliance of Hot Pursuit stems from its original release in 2010 and the remaster doesn’t bestow a bountiful bouquet of bonuses, but replaying it ten years down the line hasn’t changed the recipe one iota – and that can only be a great thing, although the changes are minimal beyond aesthetics. If you haven’t played Hot Pursuit and want an exhilarating racer this is a must own and while you’re at it bump up the score below by 1.0, but as a remaster it only does enough to make it competent and does little to stand out from the litany of remasters out there.

    + Fast driving feels really good
    - The AI of other Cars is so stupid (Enemies + other Cars in Traffic)
    - The other Cars in the Environment feel literally like Magnets. There is such a high Chance to crash in other Cars.
    - The Enemies in the Race drive for 7/8 of the time really fast, and in the last 1/8 they slow down and let you win (at least in the beginning)
    - Map gets repetitive fast
    - The Time-Races are way to hard for casual Gamers. You can't reach the desired Times without trying multiple Times. I just want to progress, not play the same Levels over and over again!    … Expand

Seriously, it's like EA toldIf you liked Burnout, but always felt like those games were a bit too much fun, this is the game for you. Seriously, it's like EA told Criterion: "Hey, those Burnout games were a big hit, so make it a little bit like that, but not too much, it's still Need for Speed after all." The result is something that feels like playing a slower, more boring version of Burnout, and with a way worse soundtrack to boot.… Expand
