One of, if not the best NFS games ever. Remastered just gives that newer polish to the decade old Hot Pursuit 2010. I just... have no words on how amazing it is. Simple, clean and really fucking good. I think I will always recommend this as one of the must play NFS games in the series

100% Achievement Review: A quick review based on my experience completing all the (available) achievements. Title: Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Remastered Summary: Arcade racing combat game Personal notes: Remaster of a game I loved growing up. You can either play as a racer or the cops in this game making for tense online and offline combat. I thoroughly enjoyed my time with this game. The three achievements listed below were surprisingly difficult as that specific game mode is practically dead. If you need help with those specifically send me a message. Time it took to complete: 32hrs Most difficult achievement(s): - Escapologist (Play 10 Online Interceptors as a Racer) - Bounty Hunter (Play 10 Online Interceptors as a Cop) - Hotshot (Win an Online and an Offline Interceptor event in the Bugatti Veyron 16.4 Super Sport Interceptor) Difficulty rating: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8/10 Overall rating: ★★★★★★★★☆☆ 8/10

My favorite NFS of all time and the most excited and fun modes are race and most wanted. I really like driving McLaren F1, Zonda, and Lamborghini.

I'm not sure who EA hired to be the voice that reads you the description for each car, but they did such a good job, it is auditory heroin. You gotta listen to her fully explain the backstory of the car before you can drive it every single time, sorry I don't make the rules.

Don't let a low playtime fool you. I 100 percent completed this game in 2010, did it again on the Switch, and have now started enjoying it on the PC specifically on my Steam Deck, which in my opinion is the way to play this game. The versatility of the deck means it can be docked and played at very high settings on a 1080p display without breaking a sweat. Haven't tested at 1440p or 4k but would not be surprised if it is capable of it, considering the age of this game. Despite it's age, HPR is a wonderful looking game. It's got a very clean art style and the gameplay is buttery smooth. It feels like a slightly more "weighty" Burnout, for lack of a better term. The cars all feel different from each other and there are clear winners within a certain class. It just takes experimentation to find your favorite flavor. Despite all of this, my go to is always the Mazda RX-8 for any racer challenge that allows me to use it, as I'm a lifelong rotary engine fan. And the noise from that car does not disappoint. It's handling is knife-edge sharp and it's so fun to avoid collisions and cops with. Highly recommended for the additional challenge too. Overall, I do recommend this game if you enjoy the solo aspect of gradually building your skills and unlocking cars. Great for a car collecting type game. Minimal customization to worry about, outside of choosing a color. It's basically pick a car and go race. On to the multiplayer portion of this game. This is where it truly shines. If you have a few friends, or even one friend who enjoys setting times and challenging your best back and forth, this game has a wonderful asymmetrical multiplayer component called Autolog. Keep in mind this originally came out in 2010. At that time, I am certain this was one of the first if not THE first game to implement this feature. It's now common place (because it's such an awesome idea) in other games. But basically every time you set a time you can challenge your friends, which will notify them the next time they play the game. If they beat your time, they can choose to notify you. You've even got a "wall" to post your best times or brag about the fact you beat your friend's time. All good stuff. If you have a few buddies to play online with regularly (I'd recommend at least 3 other people, though the game supports up to 8), it's super fun to do cops vs racers, or just straight up racing. There are a number of fun modes to play. I do recommend spending some time solo to unlock your favorite cars, as it makes the online races more competitive. Unless you all stick to the standard cars in each class, which is fun and makes for a level playing field for all. Overall, this game is 100% worth the price in my opinion. It goes on sale often, so it's a good buy either way. This is A-Tier NFS in my opinion. I'm an old school NFS gamer, with my rose tinted glasses for the original NFS 3 Hot Pursuit from 1998 and NFS High Stakes, and 2002's NFS Hot Pursuit 2 being my S-tier level games. This is not far off.
