The most thrilling NFS yet!
To start off, the career mode (A.K.A, The Run) starts off with a bang. You are trapped in a Porsche Carrera and you are about to be dropped into a machine that can kill you and destroy you're car. The person you are play... Read Full Review

Two thumbs down
Another dissapointment for the series. Just another poor game. There are very few cars, no modding, just a bunch of aero packs. Car handling sux big time. The story mode is very short. Car changing system is very annoyin... Read Full Review

Limited play options, terrible gameplay and irritating story add up to a complete waste of time in this edition of NFS.
Let me first start off by saying I was actually hopeful about this game as I am a diehard fan of the very original game on the 3DO. Straight tracks, illegal speeding in realistic environments with real exotics is how ne... Read Full Review

Takes a lot of chances and succeeds slightly more than it fails.
This game cannot decide what it wants to be. Is it an arcade racer? Is it a simulation? Is it an action game? Is it Porsche Unleashed or Hot Pursuit? Is it free-roam or track-based? The answer is that it is all of ... Read Full Review

A easy and common racing game. Not what I expected.
I read that Need For Speed: The Run was in development phase for three years before it make the glorious appearance on our PCs. Three years for a handful of hours in single player (Hard), about the same time on Challenge... Read Full Review
