Guide Review - "Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2"
"Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2" doesn't give you all the courses and cars to play. Instead you must work your way through racing courses and earn enough points to unlock courses and cars. The racing takes place in a variety of environments, including city and rural areas.
An important part of any game is the graphics. The graphics in this racing sim are beautiful. But, you really do need a good graphics card to enjoy the little details. The scenery is breath taking at times, but the fast paced action doesn't leave you much time to admire it.
Don't bother trying to play using the keyboard. It's difficult to control the car, get a game pad instead.
"Hot Pursuit 2" is a fun racing game that will please most gamers.
