Need for Speed Hot Pursuit Goes Open World with new DLC

Finally we're gonna get an open world Cops and Robbers ... Don't be a Jimmy. I hope you still have a copy of Need for Speed Hot Pursuit.

Need for Speed Hot Pursuit is a 2010 Jimmy Gem winner for having one of the most innovative things in gaming. The Autolog. If you missed out on this experience, that's just too bad Jimmy. Playing NFSHP online with friends is one of the closest experiences I've had to Mario Kart 64 rail fests.

I absolutely love NFSHP ever since the demo dropped. When the game actually released, I put a lot of hours into it. Legit hours too, nothing that has to do with modding like ThaBrad or Erik Estrada ... Mods heard. I only wanted to change a few games with the online world. For one I wanted an open world car chase bad. Super cops and robbers and I can run in any direction possible. Well it seems with this new DLC, my dreams have come true. 

Also new in this DLC is racing with weapons. Vintage Mario Kart. A couple of new cars packs. All of these DLC's are priced at  for $6.99 (560 Microsoft Points) which is tangible, but couldn't EA just have rolled out a package or something at a discount. Oh wait, it's EA. We're lucky we don't have to pay every time we put the game into our systems. Fuckin' Jimmys.

Check out this video from the NeedforSpeed YouTube Channel.

From YouTube: THREE new pieces of DLC are coming to Need For Speed Hot Pursuit! Get Armed & Dangerous on Feb 22nd, Lamborghini Untamed on March 1st, and Porsche Unleashed on march 8th. Visit http://hotpursuit.needforspeed.com/ for all of the details.

There are already too many Lambos and Porches in this game, if they want me to pay for more cars, add some Ferrari! At least there's some new events though.

Isn't online interceptor already open world? I didn't see anything in this video that looked like that.

Racing with weapons was definitely missing from the game, glad they added that. I might actually care for the non-cop racing now.

Interceptor is 1v1 Jimmy. New mode is 4v4 teams.

4v4 Interceptor seems a little bit ridiculous. I mean how are we supposed to keep on Jimmys if a partner of 2 goes down?

I'll wait for all this shit to end up in the Deal of the Week or something. 21 bucks for DLC is garbage!

The DLC sounds pretty good, but having to pay almost as much for it as the game wtf.

If PSN ever makes it back I think I'll be adding the Armed and Dangerous DLC, is it worth it or did you guys get tired of it?
