I just bought it, and I can already tell it doesn't have the Need For Speed feel. It's just like the newer Most Wanted. Exactly the same driving experience!
Oh, and the menus are clunky. No mouse interaction! Only keyboard selecting...

Sorry, EA, this is pretty bad... And this is coming from a Need For Speed fanatic.

I played:

• The Need For Speed
  
• NFS 2 - Special Edition
  
• NFS 3 - Hot Pursuit
  
• NFS 4 - High Stakes
  
• NFS 5 - Porsche Unleashed (my personal favorite of the series)
  
• Motor City Online
  
• Hot Pursuit 2
  
• Under Ground (1,2?)
  
• Most Wanted
  
• Carbon
  
• Undercover
  
• Shift
  
• Nitro
  
• World
  
• Hot Pursuit 2010
  
• Most Wanted 2012
  
• Rivals

...yeah. I'm glad I didn't buy this at full price! Hot Pursuit (2010) is by far the worst in the Hot Pursuit series.
