> Back in the day, it was about Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit. You drove around the winding roads in supercars like Ferraris and Lamborghinis.

So, do you want the good news or the not-so-good news first? How about we start with the downer and work from there.

Frank Miller’s Sin City is going to get a video game of its own.
