Having played all 4 ports of Need for Speed HP2, I can tell you that 3 of them are very lacking... XBOX, GameCube and PC versions all pale as compared to the PS2, and all of the reviewers out there agree. It just so happens that EA Seattle developed these 3 ports and BlackBox did the PS2 version. Cutting to the chase, EA officially killed EA Seattle today.
