Anyone else picking up Hot Pursuit tommorow?

Very excited about this one. Loved the game in the older incarnations. I just picked up a really nice steering wheel for Xbox 360 (thanks Orion3311!!), too!

I'll probably wait until next week to pick this one up, as I have some time off to play it over Thanksgiving. :)

Edit: I meant to mention, I played the HECK out of Need for Speed Most Wanted so this one is in that same vein.
 
I hear Hot Pursuit is very very Burnout-like, is that true? I never played Burnout and have wanted to for years. Then I rented Burnout Paradise and was really disappointed that it was an open-world game where you have to drive around to unlock things and go to garages in order to swap your vehicle and I was not impressed. Combine that with the fact Paradise seemed to be largely street races and less smash-into-the-other-guy take downs and I passed on Paradise.
The demo for Hot Pursuit seemed to bring back what I was looking for in a Burnout experience.

Actually NFS was developed by the same team that did Burnout, Criterion games. There is an open world mode totally seperate from the game. In thiyou can pick what you want to do immediately at any time from the map.
 
Yes it's a lot like Burnout Takedown, with licensed cars and cop cars.

It's been getting good reviews. Looks great fun for multiplayer.
