Few racing games manage to capture the sheer adrenaline of high-speed police chases quite like Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit . Originally released by Criterion Games and later remastered for modern audiences, it stands as a pillar of the arcade racing genre. However, for many gamers, the barrier to entry isn't the skill required to drive, but the storage space required to install the game.

When a game is "ripped" or "repacked," the original files are compressed using advanced algorithms (similar to turning a .bmp image into a .jpg). In many cases, developers use "dummy files" to fill space on retail discs to prevent piracy or to structure the disc read speed. Repackers remove these dummy files, compress textures, and sometimes remove unnecessary language packs or cinematic cutscenes.

However, the original 2010 version of Hot Pursuit is quite lightweight by modern standards.
