When I played NFS-Porsche 2000, I began to think that this was a pretty good series of driving games - boy was I wrong! The single player mode of this game is absolutely awful! AI-wise it is like 2 year olds are your opponents - it seems impossible not to win on all levels except the last one. The difficulty system is stupid - if a player is experienced they do not want to play on the easiest difficulty level - you should be able to choose an overall level of difficulty - not gradually make your way up from easy to hard! The police tactics should not be fixed - they should make decisions at the relevant times. Its just too easy to avoid that helicopter! The game has very good graphics, however the surroundings are too limited - why does every level have the same environment? It gets a little boring over time. Sound is average. Overall, unless you are useless in driving games, this game is not for you. Personally I don't see why games are made for consoles and then transferred to PC - if it were the other way around (like the good old days) games would be far better in terms of difficulty, graphics and additional features. Consoles are just too limited.
