Finally back "back to the roots" - a successful NFS with little quirks

Bugs and hardware requirements:
Game installed and ready - on my PC (Win7 64 bit, 6-core AMD, ATI Radeon 5770) there are no problems. For me, not a bug in sight, I can not complain.

Graphics:
True to detail and love of detail. A feast for the eyes just to boards only through the countryside to admire the reflections of the wet road when driving against the sun and marvel at the snow-capped peaks, if you just drift through the corners. Class!

Multiplayer:
Online, yeah - LAN nil, too bad.

Gameplay:
Accidents - The fabricated accidents are shown in slow motion, then black screen and you end up back at full speed on the racing line and on it goes. That's quite amusing, but at least the driving away would have with it. A matter of taste. What is very bad, is the scoring in COP mode. For light-stripper on guardrails one apparently gets 2 penalty seconds, for a total crash no Zeitsrafe. Strange logic, the unconvinced.
Opponents - Complete Arcade, one might say. Opponents "wait" for you if you had an accident. This may not be realistic, but fun if you do not have to start the race the same new, but the possibility has quickly catch up with the other drivers again. What is bad, the impossibility unmount the box properly - one has the impression that the opponents are always better when you go well - in other words, the AI ​​opponent adapts to very own driving skills to.
Weapons - a nice addition that I would not necessarily need. EMP, spike strips and other available.
Time Attack - can sometimes a bit annoying. The variant with the "checkpoints" in "Most Wanted" liked much better.
Driving dynamics - after a few minutes you have learned it, his car to master so that it is fun. Anyone who has played other NFSs, rises smoothly into the controller.
Modes - Raser mode and COP mode can play in parallel. So you also have a COP career built on his next Raser career. One can choose freely on which career you want to continue to work - good variety.

CONCLUSION:
A Hot Pursuit that bears his name rightly. Unfortunately, once again with no LAN mode.
Hot Pursuit 2 was a milestone in my estimation is "Most Wanted" photos at the NFS series, as regards the gameplay and the story. "Undercover" was not bad either. "Hot Pursuit 2010" is finally a arcade racing game that's great fun.
My favorite would be a "Most Wanted" with the image of "Hot Pursuit 2010". Let's see, maybe there is still a "Most Wanted II".
Until then, I cast my time with "Hot Pursuit 2010," a game that I like to have bought. And now the conclusion I have to "accelerate" :-)
