Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit is a racing game in which you complete missions by switching between a police officer and a racer. While the goal is the same, to reach the finish first, the game lets you try another side of the races, as in the police part of the game you need to stop a lawbreaker. Unlike typical racing titles, Hot Pursuit follows the principle that all is fair. Both sides have special tools to stop the opponent. Racers can throw spikes on the road or use turbo acceleration to break away from the pursuit, and police can block the road and summon a helicopter for help from above. The 2010 game was developed by Criterion Games with EA Digital Illusions CE and published by Electronic Arts. It is part of the Need for Speed series and was released for the PlayStation 3, Xbox 360 and Windows PCs. It can be played from a first person or a third person view, and it offers both single player and multiplayer modes, so players can take on the roles of cop and racer alone or against other people online.
