Your fave 1st generation NFS

1st generation NFS = the PSX/PS One & PC titles from the 90s/early 2000s.

Hypothetically, we could also include Hot Pursuit 2, but I won't include it for practical reasons.

The Underground, Most Wanted, Pro Street, Shift & Undercover games = *not* 1st generation NFS titles by any means.

Some pics:

- The Need For Speed (1994; 3DO, Saturn, PSX, PC)

- Need For Speed II (1997; PSX, PC)

- Need For Speed III: Hot Pursuit (1998; PSX, PC)

- Need For Speed: Road Challenge/High Stakes ("NFS4", 1999; PSX, PC)

- Need For Speed: Porsche Unleashed/2000 (2000; PSX, PC)

My fave = Porsche Unleashed with TNFS SE on 2nd place. (note that PC version of Porsche is much better than the PS one; the PC one should have been ported over to PS2)

High Stakes was not shabby either and Hot Pursuit genuinelly impressed me when it came out, graphically. (PC version)

I've only played the PS versions of Hot Pursuit and High Stakes, and I loved High Stakes more because of more and better selections of cars and the fact that you could play as the cops this time.

I like Need For Speed 3 , though the first is a very good game.

btw that NFS picture doesn't look like the 3DO , it actually looks quite different.

NFSII feels more "arcade" than the first NFS.

Personally, I didn't like it too much but a lot of people like it.

You should look up the SE version as that is the one with the "3D acceleration" under Glide. (you will either need a 3dfx Voodoo card or a Glide wrapper to enable it)

Man, what's happened to this series, it used to be so good. It's been turned to complete crap.

Porsche 2000/Unleashed by a mile.

Okay it was limited in its choice of cars but it was the first time that a NFS game had decent handling.

Hot Pursuit wins for me by a landslide. The first game of its kind, and a great one at that.

ive only played the original need for speed when it had road and track

I don't remember the 1st-gen NFS games, but Underground is my favourite overall.

High Stakes.
