Some NFS players don't like Porsche Unleashed beause it's more realistic and a Porsche tribute. And this is excactly what makes this game so good. I cannot even cout how often I have played this game. I even supports steering wheels. This game brought the fascination of sim racing to me and surely to many other players.

Porsche was the pinnacle of the series. Not too arcadey, not too realistic, just right. The career mode was challenging but rewarding at the same time. A more elegant car game from a more civilized age. I'm not holding my breath to ever seeing this game here, or ANY other NFS title for that matter, but one can dream.

I REALLY NEED THIS GAME! When I was 11 years old, I spent a whole day playing on my cousin's PC, it was a classic Windows XP. This game is simply wonderful, you could literally destroy the car in races, repair it, buy used cars, sell it, upgrade it. The maps, my god, the maps were beautiful, apart from going through all the classic eras of each Porsche. PLEASE BRING THIS GAME BACK!

It was the very first NFS I played when I was a kid and I love it since. And those beautiful, magical, early 00s aesthetics, they not just bringing back memories but I really think these early 3D games are looking gorgeus. Plus this game made me love Porsche cars in the first place. Every time I drive an old Porsche, like the ‘73 Carrera RS or the ‘95 GT2 in Forza Horizon, I think about NFS Porsche and smile… Damn, see how this game made me so disgustingly sentimental again? But no surprise, it has a special place in my heart for 25 years now.

Le meilleur des need for speed, il mériterait amplement un remaster HD, super ambiance, superbe bande son, même si il y peu d'aventure avec la police, le mode carrière et le réseau était excellent et les sensations de conduite sympa.
Best NFS game on classic era! Love driver licence and porsche tournaments! Still playing it. Favorite maps: Alps, Autoban etc. And this NFS has the best soundtracks!

Even-though only Porsche in the whole game as the title suggested, the soundtrack vibe was so memorable I still play it now and then. The game itself has a distinct handling as a real Porsche would. It has depth like no other NFS franchise would. I remember browsing the history and promotional leaflets and video ads from the manufacturer. The spare part customization is a blend of simulation and arcade. Not too complex overwhelming, still interesting for me. Definitive NFS classic.

This was an excellent NFS with an awesome test driver career mode. For years I dreamed about NFS: Ferrari, but it never happened. I had great time playing this, but I'm afraid it will feel dated today.

FreelancerEight hundred years prior to the start of our story, bitter conflict divided all of mankind. A handful of colonists struck out on their own to begin anew - far away from the Earth and its turmoil. Several ships were launched with enough equipment and supplies to give the hundreds onboard a fighting chance - but since the area around far-off Sirius had never been surveyed, no one really knew what to expect. What they found was a new frontier of free-flowing natural resources, unexplored territories, great wonders and lurking dangers. Each ship, representing the clusters of people and their earthly place of origin, settled into different parts of the galaxy pre-selected by their ship-board computer to give them the best chance of survival. Life was hard in the beginning, but over the 800 years the different colonies prospered and expanded their territories, claiming more and more systems for their own. Survival and propagation eventually led to growth and profit as each of the colonies developed specialties and fostered commerce. As the colonies grew and time passed their connections with their roots on Earth dwindled and they lost their memories of the conflicts of the past. Soon their attention was dominated by new, more immediate conflicts. Feelings of lost ancestral connection spurred anachronism in the look of the great cities, and created a somewhat distorted image of each colony's cultural heritage. In the ever-expanding outer edge of the territories, frontier lawlessness prevailed. The Houses: Each shipboard colony that left Earth carried some memory of its origins in its name. The Liberty carried Americans, The Bretonia flew from The United Kingdom and surrounding territory, The Kusari from Asia, and the Rheinland launched with Germanic cargo. As each ship settled and colonies began to expand, they knew little about each other and their advancing development. Finally, little by little, the individual colonies found each other and began to set up trade routes to link their systems for commerce and solidarity. Today, with each colony firmly rooted in its respective corner of the galaxy, the colonies rely heavily on each other for trade and industry but also compete for resources and new territories in the Border Worlds. The colonies mandate member governments in "The New Alliance" within the Sirius sector. To control conflicts, each colony has forged alliances and treaties with others as they have grown. Competition remains fierce, however. Struggles rage for supremacy in business, commerce, resources, power and control. There can be tenuous peace between colonies' political agendas, but the grabs for holdings constantly unsettle the volatile frontier.

LEGO Stunt Rally
LEGO Stunt RallyLEGO Stunt Rally on Game Boy Color is a racer with a leg up on the competition! As in many racers, your goal is to get to the finish line first in order to win fame and fortune or at least a few first-place medals. However, LEGO has always been about building, and LEGO Stunt Rally is no different. You'll have to construct each of the tracks yourself using a variety of pieces containing curves, stunt pieces, and others. There are four different track themes, each with their own pieces: you can create a city track, a desert track, a mud track, and an ice track. Once you've built the track, it's time to race! Your competitors on the track will fight tooth and nail to beat you to the finish, so you'd better make sure you use the knowledge of the track's setup to your strategic advantage. If you manage to do well enough, you may uncover some new track themes. LEGO Stunt Rally is for one player only, and is only compatible with Game Boy Color systems.
