Fun racer
-Gameplay
In NFS the main part of the game is driving really fast and racing other cars. There are 2 types of gameplay modes in the game: Hot pursuit, Tournament, and be the cop. The tournament is basically A branch of races in which you earn money for winning. The harder the race, the more money up for grabs. Hot pursuit the the exact concept of tournament, but there is a twist. Police cars will chase you if you are speeding, or if you hit them strait on. But if you are the police car, you can turn your sirens on and chase the speeding car.
And for the car handling, pretty clean except if you get rammed in the back your ganna swerve into a wall or something. Not a big deal, you can just reset your car to the middle of the track with the z button.
-Graphics
The best part about the graphics are the cars. They look realistic and sharp (if you want the best graphics, get the xbox version. I got the gamecube because I didnt have an xbox). The things they could have worked on in the game are the slowdowns (it may just be the GCN version though) and some textures on the race courses.
So if you want to buy this game, get the xbox version if you want the best graphics. This is a game recomended to all racing fans or any NFS fans.
