I cannot believe this POST, it is ...unbelievable, no really, WOW..

NFS (Need For Speed) is THE FINEST GAME ON EARTH EVER IN THE HISTORY
OF FINE GAMES , PROBABLY ONLY TO BE EQUALLED BY NFS2 on the M2..
I HAVE PLAYED THIS INCREDIBLE GAME SINCE XMAS AND AM STILL PLAYING IT.

NFS is a car simulator (bit like test drive with much much better graphics) and although has slightly poorer graphics than Ridge Racer Leaves it for DEAD when it comes to game play...

IF YOU DO NOT HAVE THIS GAME . NOW . IMMEDIATELY. IF NOT SOONER.
GO OUT AND BUY IT. I COMMAND YOU! OH YES...

Haha nice. I remember sitting in Mythology reading a game magazine. They had an article with pictures on Need For Speed way before it even came out.. I was floored at the screen shots, previously there was no game with graphics like this. I had already plopped the money down on a 3DO and I was very much so eagerly waiting for it to be released.

When it was released I got it and was fully hooked. I played that game like a mad man and the graphics and control just floored me.

I still think it's the best NFS ever made.

Was this purely speculation, or was there really a Need For Speed planned for the M2 at one point?

Purely speculation I'm afraid

16 AND I AGREE.

Time to go on some modern gaming forums and argue why the newer ones on the Xbox 360 suck :wink: Yes I'm joking

I'm right there with you. My favorite retro game and still the game that gets the most play on my FZ-1.
