Street racing has been all the rage in racing games over the last few years, and I can't help but think that it's an idea that's well past its prime. EA seems to agree, having turned the tables on the lawbreakers that their Need for Speed series had previously embraced. Hot Pursuit puts players in the police uniform of an officer tasked with taking down an illegal street racing operation - the very same sort of operation you would have participated in if you've played previous entries in the series.
