Tons of New DLC for Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit Coming Soon!

Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit really has been my favorite game of last year. I of course loved everything about Halo: Reach and a few others that came out but I will always be a gamer at heart. So, today makes me excited as over $20 in downloadable content is headed for Need For Speed.

There will be three different packs you can choose from (if you don’t buy them all) – “Armed and Dangerous,” “Lamborghini Untamed,” and “Porsche Unleashed” — it will be available within the coming months. Starting with “Armed and Dangerous” which will make it’s way to the marketplace February 22nd, each pack will cost you 560 MS Points/$6.99 which isn’t a bad price to pay.
