twitchyzero 08-09-2010 12:40 AM

back when Electronic Arts didn't pump watered-down garbage out every year :D

NFS 1 road & track edition and Porsche Unleashed were my favourite.

i like the car chases..but felt they get old pretty fast

I got NFS2: SE lying around somehwere - It was the times before youtube, so if I wanted car videos I would just booted up the game and watch those intro vids.

Anyone remember the Vancouver Track? It had snippets of Lions Gate, Stanley Park, and the area near Spanish Banks with totem poles scattered everywhere

Edit: The one thing I do have to give credit to NFS is that this was a time when they still actually used real footage for intros, not this CG crap! :p

omg I was just playing TD3 the other day. Gotta use DosBox though - thing runs way too fast on a P3-1000. :D Crazy how back in tha day they tied games to CPU cycles and not the system clock. :lol How times have changed..

NFS1 > NFS2

NFS5 Porsche Unleashed > NFS3 Hot Pursuit > NFS4 High Stakes

I think i still have my nfs2 somewhere in my cd collection, that game is the best racing game ever!

hk20000 08-09-2010 06:47 AM

porsche unleashed hands down.

But if you have a steering rig the Shift is not bad either.... everything else is quite meh. Cop chases are just fads.

The new one that's coming out will have Burnout style physics plus cop chase so that's gonna be good tho!

Hahaha...I had that too!! I remember that on my old Commodore 64 or was it a 486 dx/33 with the 2 color screen. F40 was the weapon of choice for me. I even had the extra car pack. Good old memories!

I killed the directional keys on the keyboard of my first computer thanks to NFS1.

I didn't really care for #2-4, porsche unleashed was my overall favourite. I never really played any of the NFS's after that, I stopped playing a lot of video games.

gilly 08-09-2010 09:02 AM

This game was epic. I always played with my brother. 2 player race with shared keyboard haha. I get the arrows and he gets the W,A,S,D keys haha. F2 to lower the graphics cuz my computer was a POS. Those were the days.

dhari 08-09-2010 09:32 AM

i love that game!!!!!!!!

Spectre_Cdn 08-09-2010 09:44 AM

I liked how you could turn on the turn signals in Porsche Unleashed. :p

Dinan3 08-09-2010 10:12 AM

Good time spent with all the NFS series. I had fun until Underground. That got boring quickly. I want to drive an exotic car, not a riced out car with horrible gameplay physics.

ilvtofu 08-09-2010 10:40 AM

I just hope the driving simulation in the new NFS aren't anything like the ones that came out the last 4 or 5 years.

Haha porsche unleashed was the shit but i never worked my way up to finally owning a 911, just went through like 50 356's cause they made you fix em after u crashed em

Mugen EvOlutioN 08-09-2010 11:02 AM

that was the best racing game ever back in the days, the new NFS is just pure garbage.

keeps getting worse and worse



than again, i dont enjoy video game as much as i used to 10 years ago, guess im growing out of it...:(

with that being said, im however still semi excited about the GT5

ruthless 08-09-2010 11:11 AM

I got the NFS Collection with 5 of the originals

NFS porsche unleashed was pretty good, but NFS Hot Pursuit 2 was the best

lol you know it's more advanced than Gran Turismo and Forza Motorsport

The version i had was called Porsche 2000..which is basically the EU/Asia version.

Too bad the game came-out before the Carrera GT

!e.lo_ 08-09-2010 07:23 PM

My friend and I were talking about this game last week. oh the memories.

This game introduced me to the F1, Lotus Esprit, XJ220 etc.

Volvo-brickster 08-09-2010 07:27 PM

ive still got these games

how can i get them to run on xp ? :D

wanna play a few for nostalgia's sake

!e.lo_ 08-09-2010 07:47 PM

Oh I remember playing Porsche Unleashed with my Logi wheel.

Yesterday I decided to play Shift, because I never finished it, and I realized, wtf happened?
The menus are bad, they put too much emphasis on graphics, and slows the menus down so much!

Anyways, High Stakes was pretty good, Hot Pursuit was good too.

Spaceship_coupe 08-09-2010 08:05 PM

Anyone here still remember the "original" Need for Speed for the 3DO platform as posted in the clip by Tegra Devil?
