Looks like Criterion is taking the Need For Speed series back a little to give Hot Pursuit a sequel.
I really hope this is the case as I loved Hot Pursuit 2. I played it so much I still think I remember all the tracks and shortcuts ;)
There's no confirmation yet, but this (http://www.playstatic.com/news/1883) is very interesting. Imagine Hot Pursuit with new tracks, better visuals and awesome car collisions :o
