Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2...
Strengths: Good graphics, great music, tight controls, great cars to drive
Weakness: AI isn't too smart
Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 stars some of the world's fastest and best cars, offering the chance to drive them at ridiculous speeds. All the cars are rendered very well and look like their real life counterparts. The music adds some nice atmosphere to the game, though is quieted with the police chatter when in pursuit. The controls are nice and tight, which helps with high-speed driving,...

If you truly enjoy racing games,...
Strengths: Sense of speed on tracks, ability to "outrun" cops, decent graphics
Weakness: Almost everything... this game is extremely short, car models are rather lacking, police chases are not fun, tracks are uninspired, etc.
If you truly enjoy racing games, pick up something else more worth your money such as Project Gotham Racing 2 or Forza for realism, or Burnout 3 for arcadey racing. This game has a VERY limited number of cars to choose from, tracks are uninspired, shortcuts aren't all that great, and multiplayer is boring. If you absolutely MUST play this, rent it for a day... you'll see what I mean.

Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2
The latest from Electronic Arts is an arcade-style racing game that features tons of sexy cars for you to drive as fast as possible. Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 features quite a few modes for you to play, quite a few cool tracks, and a cool points system to unlock cars. The game is definitely fun, but it isn't perfect. If some problems were worked out, and the game was more polished, it would...
