I have to say... Having been playing Need For Speed Most Wanted quite a bit recently (Being between jobs has its perks), it's provided a reasonably good outlet for driving fast and I've not felt the need to drive fast so much in real life. Which is good, because I can't afford all that much petrol at the moment.

On the other hand... I have felt the need to ram into police cars and then smash through a bus station in order to loose the police helicopter that soon follows.
