The OST in Special Edition still holds up wonderfully. Especially Proving Grounds and the Main Menu.

This game gave me a life long love of the 1997 McClaren F1. Fastest street legal sports car at the time. Top speed of 232 mph.
If I became a multimillionaire tomorrow I would immediately seek out a 1997 McClaren F1. I never liked the look of the newer models.

Wait but if it’s 1997 I wasn’t even born ye…vanishes from existence

Neat! I finished Need for Speed 4 like a year ago. I was never able to beat it as a kid. That felt good.

The only videogame my dad has ever gotten into (other than Pong) was NFS II SE. He wouldn’t race, he just liked driving around at 35 MPH and looking at the scenery. He enjoyed this so much he bought a wheel and pedals for it. I loved this game as a kid, and the fact that I could play it with a wheel. The song “Headless Horse” off the soundtrack is pure 90s cool as well.

They didn’t really go well for me. I would only go back if I got future knowledge in my dreams. Like PTSD style flashbacks (would not want to be a 30 year old man stuck in a toddler’s body)

This website’s expectations are apparently almost as old as the games it provides. Still awesome though.

Not my 1997; we were way too poor for that. My asshole first stepfather would be alive again and I would be back in the latter half of highschool, so a pass all around from me (but y'all feel free to enjoy good memories :) )

Create some new memories now. NFSmw 2005 can still run on W11 and it has a patch on Github that unlocks and tweaks everything. You can turn off the rubberbanding cheating that the games does and you can actually enjoy the game!

I think it’s the only NFS game to have Ford GT-90. I could be wrong though

This post right next to Free rule, you say?. What a coincidence.

The dumbest thing Neo ever did was choose “the real world”. What a dumbass. I would choose the fantasy pill and live every single moment as extravagant bliss.

NFS2 Special Edition was so good. My favourite of the series. The menu music alone were bangers.
viking@infosec.pub 7 months ago
Especially the Hollywood map to could access with a code from the menu. That rocked so hard.
dingleberrylover@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Yeah, I remember. You can actually unlock it when doing this knockout championship. I also remember that knockout was kinda buggy when playing multiplayer.
rustyredox@lemmy.world 7 months ago
I had a hard time finding that game after finishing NFS3, until EA finally released a box set collection.

Oh shit. I’m playing this in Morgan Thorne’s basement at 2am, while he sleeps, because my home PC won’t run this. Good times.
naught101@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Playing this as an Aussie teenager, the Australia track was kinda hilarious, I was always like damn, this loop through that scenery should take about 32 hours minimum
rustyredox@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Haha, that’s great! What related landmarks does that track allude to?
naught101@lemmy.world 7 months ago
Been fucken ages, but it has the Sydney Harbour Bridge, plus a bunch of the cliffs on the freeway north of Sydney (which are sadly much less majestic since a freeway expansion on the early 2000s). Then it also has some red desert which is at least 1000km away, plus some old mining towns, which is somewhere in between.
I just looked up a lap of it on youtube though, and the graphics are waaaaay worse than I remember… I guess I had low standards in the 90s 😂
BootLoop@sh.itjust.works 7 months ago
I had this on PC when I was really young. Barely remember it. i could probably find the CD at my parents’.
LoafedBurrito@lemmy.world 6 months ago
Oh yes, my jam!!! I still have my copy for GameCube. Loved the chases and the mechanics.
