Need for Speed III: Hot Pursuit - the series was just never the same. The game was insanely simplistic but that's what made it good. It was just about driving, not making a crappy Honda Civic even crappier or disgracing a Lamborghini by putting a body kit on it. I'm really looking forward to the new Hot Pursuit, I hope EA does the name justice.
Im right there with ya. I preferred the old simple design that Hot Pursuit had. I kind of liked Hot Pursuit 2 but im hoping the new one will be better.
