This cool looking graphics racing game is one of the many “Need for Speed” (NFS) games but also one of the best. The game features “49 cars” altogether but actually there are 25 originals and 24 cars, which are some of the originals but with different colours and go a little faster. This can be somewhat repetitive from time to time but should not ruin the overall good feel of the game. Most of the cars go quite fast, although some exceptions don't follow. But then again it would not be fun without any slower cars. Some of the tracks have a reverse side, which can be somewhat repetitive yet again. A helpful feature of the tracks is its awesome shortcuts, which makes the game easier. When the police is chasing you, they identify your car, the colour of your car and the speed you are going at, which is pretty cool. The cops also send choppers, which shoot you with rockets and/or drop hot fire barrels that explode. Cops also set barricades and attempt to stop you in every way they can. In the game you can play as a cop or as a normal racer, who is chased by the cops. It’s not necessary to play as a cop or to be chased by the cops – you can play races without any police forces in them. By completing a race you accumulate points to unlock cars. There are also two event trees, which help you unlock most of the cars, tracks and the rest cars can be unlocked by playing extra races.
