Cops against outlaws, the burning asphalt of an open world where the race never stops.

On few votes, the profile clearly tips one way, to be read as a first poll. The controller-in-hand pleasure comes out ahead, in front of nearly three quarters of all games: the signature of Burnout's heirs, that sense of speed and impact. But everything else lags at the bottom. The desert island question sits at the very floor, ahead of barely more than ten percent of games. Attachment, rediscovery, sound and art style all stay below average, around a quarter. The tension, to be confirmed: it delivers strong sensations with a controller in hand, but it creates neither attachment nor the urge to relive that first-time thrill.

Among EA's arcade racers, it aims for immediate adrenaline more than lasting memory. The pleasure is in the gesture, not in the recollection.

So, who is it for? For you if you love the tense chase, the rush of speed and the cop-versus-racer duel with no downtime. Much less if you want a race that stays with you long after you let go of the wheel.
