You may not be wondering why the drivers in Need for Speed Most Wanted are wearing helmets. You may not have even noticed, actually.
If you have noticed, however, you may be wondering what a bunch of reckless hoons are doing rocking stack hats while they cruise around town. The exceedingly boring motive is simply licensing reasons confirms Leanne Loombe, producer at Criterion, during a preview event in Sydney. I’m reminded of a chat I had with Driver: San Francisco creative director Martin Edmondson a few years back when he mentioned they deflected a similar demand, insisting helmets on drivers outside the context of a racetrack would look ridiculous.
Car licensing clearly still has its hurdles, but Loombe claims Criterion’s experiences have been otherwise smooth.
