I originally started playing Need For Speed when it first came out for the PC. The graphics were stunning, the cars were amazing, and I've been hooked ever since. This title, Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 for the Xbox is EA's latest title in the series. This game features a few different modes of play, a lot of great exotic cars to choose from, and a staggering number of tracks, which can also be run backwards (the track is reversed) for even more variety. In a twist to the old standard, you not only can be chased and arrested by police who also drive exotic cars, you can BE the cop in certain gameplay modes. You get points based on how many speeders you bust and you can call in backup cars, helicopter support, and even set up roadblocks. As I mentioned before there are a few different modes of gameplay. You can start a quickrace, which gets you right into the action. You can start the Hot Pursuit mode, in which you enter a series of events and compete for bronze, silver, or gold medals to move to the next event. You must unlock easier events to move to the harder ones by placing at least 3rd in the race. You can also race one on one with the computer, and you get to pick what type of car it drives, what type of car you drive, the track, number of laps, put traffic on the road, and whether the police will be out or not. Of course you can also play head to head with a friend on splitscreen, but only 2 players may race at a time. All the racing you do accumulates points, which are used to unlock the exotic cars. You can choose which car to unlock, as long as you have the points available. Tracks are unlocked as you win events, and there are cheat codes available to unlock all the tracks. I have not found one for the cars yet, though I am sure it exists. If there is a con to this game, it's that the police seem to pick on you more than your fellow racers. You can be 3rd in line passing a cop, but they will more than likely single you out and try to stop you. So not only are you racing the fast cars around you, you must deal with the police as well. With patience though you will find that you can beat the cops and beat the other racers. It just takes a little skill and a little luck. Need for Speed Hot Pursuit 2 is a Platinum Hit for Xbox, and you should be able to find this game for $20 or less. While not ground-breaking, driving through the detailed environments at 140 mph, crashing opponents into guardrails, and spinning cop cars out of the chase are more than enough to put a smile on your face while playing this game.Read full review

I got this game back in 2002 for my pc and had to upgrade it at the time to run it. Loved the game, re purchases in 2017 to play on the original Xbox. It’s just like I remember it ! Very fun

Hot Pursuit is a Need for Speed game in name only. This blisteringly fast racer has more in common with developer Criterion Games' own Burnout series than it does with any previous Need for Speed offering, despite lacking a number of features that are commonly associated with Burnout games. This isn't a game in which you're rewarded for crashing spectacularly or for jumping through billboards, but it is a game that encourages you to drive dangerously and to take down your opponents by any means necessary. The option to play both as illegal racers and as the cops that are chasing them brings some much-needed variety to the action, while spike strips, road blocks, and other satisfying countermeasures ensure that Hot Pursuit doesn't feel quite like any racer that you've played before. Regardless of whether your interest in Hot Pursuit stems from a love of Need for Speed, Burnout, or neither, you won't be disappointed.Read full review
This game is Awesome, Nothing is bad about this game, I am the champion of this game until my xbox broke it was very sad, I wish that they made NFS games just like this one. It was a lot of fun to play it. I am still the champion of this game and I will be forever until somebody beats me but I will keep practicing until no one can beat me ever because I am too good especially for Hot pursuit chases. Last thing I put the cops on hard and I am still able to get a away from the law.
