VIDEO: Need for Speed trailer takes us to a gangster's paradise

Need for Speed’s urban sprawl will act as a place for people to be free to do what they want to do, a gangster’s paradise if you will. Those are the none-too-subtle hints dropped by its launch trailer, at least.

The launch trailer sees racers taking to the streets, causing the police all sorts of problems. They race through the streets, drift round corners, cause untold damage to property, and crash into police cars. You’d expect nothing less from a Need for Speed title.

We catch glimpses of a few of the vehicles included in the game. There isn’t as much emphasis on customisation as you might imagine considering how much emphasis Ghost Games has put on it to date. But there are bits and pieces shown off.
