'Vanishing Point' was a clear reminder of how much skill you'll need to employ when racing in Hot Pursuit. To begin, we were presented with a single-player time-trial level titled 'Vanishing Point,' presumably so called due to its long straight roads vanishing into the horizon. were that marriage conducted by a mischievous priest with a race-driver history. Sure, I'd played Criterion's Burnout series - heck, I'd even written a special edition of ' What's Game Rant Playing?' about how much I enjoyed it - but would Hot Pursuit be too different for me to enjoy? Would my obscenely high expectations be thrown to the earth with a shattering thud? Thankfully for both Burnout and Need for Speed fans alike, Hot Pursuit plays like a marriage made in heaven. Having never played a Need for Speed title before, I was a little anxious when I sat down to play Need for Speed Hot Pursuit at a preview event last Wednesday.
