Get Ready to Run!

Need For Speed: The Run

Well, you've seen the trailer and heard all of the news. Need For Speed: The Run is the next installment in the NFS franchise. More info on the game: it is believed that it will take place in an array of cities starting from San Francisco and ending in New York City. As for the storyline, you're just a driver in search of his life back, and the only way to get it is to be the first to New York. This is actually the first time ever NFS has used real life cities in an open city racer. You'll be battling hundreds of racers from across the country in search for the gold. And did I mention the cops will be after you as well? More info on the game to come, but for now, this sounds exciting.

UPDATE: It looks like Black Box Studios will be all over this game. They'll be using DICE's Frostbite 2.0 engine to power everything. This is an updated version of the same engine Criterion used to produce Hot Pursuit so expect something pretty good.
