I have talked a lot of people out of buying this game for this very reason. As a real life car enthusiast and occasional track driver, the small issues this game has when it comes to things such as realism and accuracy with car values don't bother me that much because the need for speed series to me has been more about entertaining game play than realism. But the fact that you can't pause the game for any reason is ridiculous. I understand the idea EA was trying to achieve, but just because an idea sounds good in theory does not mean it will be good in actual use. It's happened to me many times already where I was on the last lap of a difficult race or about to escape a pursuit and I got a phone call, the door bell rang, or even a sudden itch on my leg or something ruined would ruin the race or pursuit.
