Looks a bit OTT, but a Gumball rally/Cannonball run game would be awesome.

This franchise is more loose and saggy than Call of Duty.

Having said that the idea sounds good. It's also powered by DICE's new frostbite 2 engine which is behind battlefield 3 - should be good.

I'd laugh if it was the actual road from SF to NY, I didn't have to touch the steering wheel for 40 miles...

NY to "The City" takes... about 27 hours if you had no speed limits? I wonder if you'd have to stop for fuel though.

So, 27 hours of game play (is what they're hinting at).

Hopefully a pretty sandbox-esque landscape.

A decent selection of cars...


Sounds like TDU2 where dreams come true.

I wonder if they will put LA and Vegas into it. That'll hype it up a bit.

I'm not too sure what to think about this game. It looks rather interesting.

Well that looks a bit arse.

The upside down escape from the car sequence was pretty much ripped directly from Heavy Rain, but not as good.

This looks good! At the very least it's something different that the franchise really needed. I can't think of another game that is supposed to be a serious racer that has attempted story elements like that. Possibly a bit linear though with all the set pieces and arrows, I'd like there to be some options to my escape.

The driver is fookin poo as well.

Its the first NFS where your character "leaves" the car. Good thing or bad?

Hopefully there will be an option to just do driving, I've no interest in gangstas or shooting.

This looks a bit naff really. Graphics are not great everything looks so sterile.

To me it looks like a sequel to Hot Pursuit 2010.
