This was my first, and only, NFS title that I truly enjoyed.
I am personally not into any racing games but I enjoyed the police chases (which seemed pretty fun, as well advanced programming, at the time), as well the career mode.
The most iconic game in the NFS series. It was an important part of my childhood. I had a great time playing this game with my friends. This game still looks awesome, and I want the current generation to enjoy it as well on their modern systems.
I would say the best racing game with police chases, helicopter capes and simply beautiful cars.The preservation of this game is mandatory, it is simply legendary, its cover is undeniably a legend.
There is no 90s born kid that didnt drool when this game came out... that didn't glue his/her eyes to the screen trying to move up the blacklist.
This game wrote history... a leviathan among racing games.
How did they made it soo simple yet soo good?
The only, ONLY downside is that it hasnt got licence for more cars than the 60+ or so that the game already has.
Artistic street style and badass soundtrack with chases are unforgettable. Countless hours I spent on PS2 and it is one of my loved titles I time to time play through emulators.
NFS: Most Wanted showed on my radar when I was in university. I moved to a new city, in a new state. I didn’t know anyone but I overheard a group of people talking Most Wanted and decided to join in the conversation. I wouldn’t have expected what that simple act would bring. Some of my most cherished friends – some who would kick my **** every race haha.

Need for Speed: V-Rally 2The sequel to V-Rally, V-Rally 2 is a rally racing game that was released in North America under both the Need for Speed (PlayStation) and Test Drive (Dreamcast) banners.
Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 (or 首都高バトル 01 in the Japanese release) was released for the PlayStation 2 in 2003 as part of Genki's Shutokou Battle series. This entry in the series was released two years after the previous game, Tokyo Xtreme Racer: Zero.
Much like other entries in the series, the objective is to become the fastest racer on the highways of Japan, but unlike those before it, TXR3 allows the players to race in Nagoya and Osaka instead of just Tokyo, and the Tokyo map is expanded to include the Yokohama area. In addition, this title adds a weather cycle.
TXR3 includes a fully-licensed list of cars from a variety of Japanese, American, and European manufacturers instead of the old car model designation method of "Type-(technical model name)", and furthermore, the car list itself was culled of many repeat models so to simplify and reduce the number of cars. The A, B, and C car designations were also removed.
Graphically speaking, Tokyo Xtreme Racer 3 is a definite improvement over previous entries. Car models feature a higher polygon count and are much more extensively detailed and lighting effects were also greatly improved, featuring light streaking effects, road reflections and higher quality car reflections.
