Electronic Arts sends 3D Gamers the playable demo for Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2, offering the opportunity to take this imminent action racing simulation for a spin. The demo contains the Single Challenge mode where you can try out a 2 lap single race on the Calypso Coast track using a choice of two cars (Ferrari 360 Spider and Porsche 911 Turbo). http://www.3dgamers.com/news/more/1034617318/

Not a bad demo at all. Nothing earth shattering. Still the same format as the last few NFS games but with some humorous arrest scenes and well rendered car models. Especially in the car select screen. Unfortunately I didn't see a cockpit view. Perhaps I missed the option to turn that on. Not sure it's anywhere near being a "racing simulation", but it is "imminent". I like the helicopter dropping bombs along your path , and the stop motion effects when you hit them :-(
Meanwhile lurking by a stone in the mud, two eyes looked to see what I was and then redTed spoke and this is what they said to me.......

I loved the original Hot Pursuit, it was great fun. It had some of the best force feedback I've had in a car 'sim' as well. This looks like the same kind of deal with knobs on. -- Izo Clothes of brass and hair of brown Seldom need to breathe Don't need no wings to fly And a heart of stone And a fear of fire and water Who am I?
Well the roads look a little more realistic.. "Izo Mezzo" <[email hidden]> wrote in message news:[email hidden]...
