Hit the streets in one of eleven supercars and race them on a variety of tracks in a variety of cars. The game supports one or two players with a modem or serial connection, or up to eight players over a LAN.

There's an all-new Hot Pursuit mode wherein you scorch the streets on either side of the law: elude the fuzz as a speeding motorist or enforce justice from a police patrol vehicle. This game supports hardware acceleration, but you can play it software-rendered too. In the demo version, you race against the other cars no Hot Pursuit mode. Full Specifications. I guess that the idea is to give you a look and feel of driving an untouchable car. The biggest improvement over the previous version is unquestionably the gameplay.

A lot has changed. The game engine has been redone and handles like a dream. It actually reminded me of Moto Racer except in cars instead of on motor bikes. I think that the reason it reminded me of this was because of the awesome power slides that you could use to make it around sharp corners.

All you had to do was hit the hand brake and watch the tail end start to slide. This made sharp corners a breeze. Not any longer. This also gave the game a real arcade feel to it which I prefer over true simulations.

Another cool addition to this version was the inclusion of weather. It is about time that someone made a racing game that had varying weather conditions. This added a whole new feel to the same track. Also, you could set the time of day on random so you could also race during the day or at night. For example, you could race on the Hometown track at night with dry roads.

Your next race could be the Red Rock track during the day in the rain. I thought this was a great addition to the game that really kept it fresh. Also new in this release is the Hot Pursuit mode. This mode had you racing against a single racer on traffic-infested roads. Still laugh at this site, Don't get me wrong this game is awesome but download at full speed?

The game uses a single core so crashing or not starting on single core porcessors won't happen, if you have many cores run this for just one disable the other cores and hyperthreading via the BIOS.

Each car has a distinct feel, but all of them respond with unparalleled control, especially when it comes to powersliding.

Excellent sound effects, like the bass growl of the engines, intensify the action and provide crucial feedback on your car's performance. However, the music's definitely lame, and configuring the two-player sound can be tricky without a stereo TV. Need III is one of the best arcade racers on the PlayStation, and backs that up with a tight Sim mode and a wild, rowdy ride in the awesome Hot Pursuit mode.

The lone flaw is the lack of variety in the tracks, but this one's absolutely worth its price tag. Need for Speed is a game searching for an identity. We can't make any definitive judgments yet it's still early, ya know. This edition, however, has wider tracks, better scenery and smarter opponents.

Think of it as Porsche Challenge meeting the original Need for Speed--not a bad combination. This added a whole new feel to the same track. Also, you could set the time of day on random so you could also race during the day or at night. For example, you could race on the Hometown track at night with dry roads. Your next race could be the Red Rock track during the day in the rain. I thought this was a great addition to the game that really kept it fresh.

Also new in this release is the Hot Pursuit mode. This mode had you racing against a single racer on traffic-infested roads. Since the roads have traffic, they have to have cops to patrol the traffic, right? Since the cops are patrolling the traffic, they really don't care much for someone who fly's by at MPH so they chase you down and either slap you with a fine or arrest you.

They also resort to such trickery as road blocks and spike belts to try and stop you. Although this mode was fun for a few races, it did get to be a bit annoying having to slow down and get stopped by the cops all of the time.

Maybe I was just not good enough to get away from them, but it seemed awfully tough to elude them. Also, since when can an old Barney Fife cruiser keep up with a Ferrari? Well, it happened all the time in this game. I would be flying at MPH and the cops would be keeping up with me stride for stride.

I do wish that they would have added a medium difficulty level to the game. You only have a beginner and an expert level. I rip through the beginner level with ease but when I tried playing on expert, it seemed that all of the cars had been hopped up and I was unable to keep up. I did eventually win some races but it was very difficult, and you had to almost have a flawless race.

It was inevitable that you would wreck at least once per race and if you did, you had no chance of winning. It would have been nice to have a middle step instead of a giant leap. The last thing about this game that made it so much fun was the tracks.
