[quote name="Fussbett"][quote name="Fussbett"]I had high hopes for Need For Speed's 2007 edition. I have high hopes every year, wishing for a return to the <a href="http://www.caltrops.com/pointy.php?action=viewPost&pid=34551 " target="me">Hot Pursuit</a> glory days of over-the-top arcade racing, about which I won't shut up. I suppose I should give it up, after all there are other arcade racing fish in the sea. Why do I want the Need for Speed series to be something it is clearly no longer? Because I'm a dreamer, damn it, and I think that what we once had was special enough to save. Besides, we don't need another fucking realistic racing game, do we?[/quote] Hey look who's right EVENTUALLY.
