If writer Tom Bissell's promises of Battlefield Hardline being inspired by the work of Elmore Leonard and the complaints by the beta testing community that the Miami PD shouldn't be getting as many rocket launchers as they do in the game haven't convinced you that this might just be the coolest Battlefield of all time, well... this Hotwire Multiplayer mode trailer might do the trick.
