GamingNexus: Who is the enemy in this game, and will gamers be racing (and fighting) the same people each level or different gangs?
Ryan Hamlyn: There are 5 different gangs that have taken over Capital City and its surroundings.  The gangs are the Convicts, the Warlords, the Capellis, the Vixens, and the Killer 66.  It is your charge as the first member of Pursuit Force to take out all of the gangs by any means necessary. 

GamingNexus: I've noticed from the trailers that it appears as if you're a one-man army, will the main character ever play alongside computer-controlled characters, or is this a job only one man can complete?
Ryan Hamlyn: A one-man army is a great way of putting it.  You’ll have some buddies show up every now and then, but for the most part, getting rid of the bad guys is up to the Pursuit Force, and that means you!

GamingNexus: What kind of locations should PSP owners expect from Pursuit Force?
Ryan Hamlyn: There are a variety of locations in and around Capital City that you’ll experience—from mountains to freeways to beaches to desert.

GamingNexus: Is there any licensed music in the game?  And will you be able to stream music from your memory stick?
Ryan Hamlyn: All of the music in Pursuit Force is original, and was performed by a live orchestra.  As such, we decided not to go the licensed music route, and streaming music from your memory stick isn’t available. 

GamingNexus: How much time are we talking about for the single-player story mode, and what kind of incentive is there for people to go through it more than once?
Ryan Hamlyn: The time it takes to complete the single-player story mode varies pretty widely depending on the skill of the player, but it can last up to 12-14 hours or more of play time.  We have tons of unlockable images and cheats that will probably take more than a single playthrough to get.  Also, you can merge your high scores with your friends to see who’s really the best at Pursuit Force!
