i'm leaning more towards hot pursuit, since day 1(ps1 days-ps2 days) i'm a need for speed guy- need for speed 2, high stakes, porsche unleashed, hot pursuit 2, underground 1, most wanted and my recent purchase shift (which i'm loving it!) are my favs. but hot pursuit 2 has a special place in my heart.

don't get me wrong gts are awesome because it's "realistic" simulator approach, especially the games itself show what it can do about simulation on video games from real life, especially now in the ps3 engine, but in real life i don't really "know" or don't have that much knowledge about cars and it's detailed parts, that's why it's called "racing simulator".

i'm more comfortable in nfs games. but hey if i'll have extra cash gt5 is my 2nd racing game to buy, why not.

GT5 in a heartbeat. Every NFS game lasts me about a month, and then i never touch it again. Games like GT3 or GT4 have endless replay value.

Pretty much this. I still play GT3 to this day, years of replay value and with GT5 new features such as track editor and online ( never played GT4 ). Also, my opinion, but the Hot Pursuit demo at e3 looked a bit boring. Like the same thing for every time. I dunno. But yeah I would definitely go for GT5, it is the king of racing in my opinion.

unless they go back to hot pursuit 2 formula i'd say gt5 just make sure you have a racing wheel it's not an arcade racer.

GT5 seems to have more features but HP for me. I want to chase down people online.

Ever since i learned that Hot Pursuit is going to be open world like the horrible burnout paradise, i have lost all interest. I would have actually gotten it if it had linear tracks like Hot Pursuit 2 on the last generation consoles. But now that i know the game will be bad, i will go with GT5, but i'd still play HP2 over either of them.

Never been a GT fan and I have grown thin on NFS since Underground. But if I had to pick, I would probably go with Hot Pursuit.

I'd say go for NFS. I know the recent games haven't been that good, but criterion is developing this one and after seeing what they did with paradise I'am sure this will be an amazing game. Also I've never really been into GT. Sim racing just seems boring compared to arcade racers.

I'll buy my next NFS game when EA announces Underground 3. Fortunately though there are two other racing games that I must have to be released, TDU2 and GT5.

I want both but I've been waiting for GT5 for like ages so I'm getting that one first no doupt. Plus I'm not even sure if HP will be good. I mean I loved HP2 but looking at the last few nfs games they were pretty bad. Well exept for shift maybe that one is fun. I'm just going to wait for some reviews. God I hope they don't screw this one up...

GT5, I don't think hot pursuit would be able to keep my interest more than a few days.

Gran Turismo 5 all the way. It seems like every Need for Speed game is the same. But if you say you like NFS better then get it instead.

Hot Pursuit for me. It's being made by Criterion, the same guys who made Burnout Paradise, so you know it's going to be awesome.

Man,definitely gran turismo 5 hands down!!. gt has always been the ultimate driving simulator,and gt5 is breaking the record with over 1000 cars! i have been playing gt from ps1 days,played gt1 and gt2 till 99% completion,then played gt4 on ps2,the gt4 is so long that i havn't even played 60% of it yet. I wanna play gt5 so badly,come november i will buy it as soon as possible.
