Rubish and boring, just a nicer copy of the first underground. A big step back

Adds a nice touch.
I liked that about NFS Porsche Unleashed. You had to fix the car if you wrecked it. IDK if I like the fact that if you restart a race it is still crashed.

I gotta try it out, one of my friends swears by it.

Be prepared that it is a stress relief/release "game" - not much of sim... more setup to be fun - and the mix of cars is great fun as well.

I downloaded the demo last night. Its no fun... NFS has become an arcade game at best, even that gives it more credit than due.

What part was so dissapointing? Did you flag the M3 through the desert for some not-as-unrealistic-as-NFS-ricer-edition racing?

I am having a bit of fun with it

I thought the game was fun. I got my Supra into the 6's and I'm happy now. The Mazdaspeed3 isn't very well done though. The quarter mile times are very inaccurate.

I didnt crash or anything, I just didnt like the way it "felt". Trying to slide the car and all that was just too ghetto for my taste.

Also, the NOS was a little off

Actually the best NFS game was the "NFS Hot Pusuit 2" ( the first nfs game that came out on ps2). It had all the exotic cars and beautiful scenery and twisty tight roads unlike the previous nfs games which had "free roam"

UMMMMMm

did you play NFS 5 Porsche Unleashed, or NFS 3, or NFS 3 Hot persuite? they all had that as well

(while porsche unleashed only had porkers to drive, but just about all of them )

The only saving grace for Hot Pursuit 2 (except for the cars) was the fact that you can easily hack the car performance file and make 10,000hp Elises and stuff. Otherwise, I'd say Porsche Unleashed was the best. I was intrigued by Pro Street, but if the whole free-roaming gimmick is gone, forget it.

NFS HP2 was ok on the consoles, on a PC with a FFB wheel, the game didn't make any sense, and was ZERO fun IMO. PU worked perfect with the FFB wheel..

Hmm, if you skip to the last part of that youtube vid there is some cool footage of Porsches drifting at Leipzig...

Oh - I probably should have mentioned that this game uses the G25, the H-Gate, 900 degrees of rotation, full clutch and all.

And that with all assists off, it is actually a bit of fun - and especially the drag races - as you have to actually drive the car properly to win
