Not up to snuff!

I'll probably be one of the few people who trash this title but I've got to speak my mind. I'll warn anyone who has a geforce card to stay clear for a while. The read me file makes reference to the fact that there is some instability with older drivers of this video card. Well I have the latest drivers and I still cannot complete ONE race without a complete system lockup! The graphics are outstanding but I have another big gripe here. The "Newer more realistic physics" of the came cause the car to bounce up and down constantly and if you are prone to motion sickness get ready for a major headache. I have not found a way to turn this off, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist. I am a HUGE fan of the NFS series but this is one major dissappointment so far. I hope you have better luck.

Best Game ever

I have just one thing to say: This is by far the best racing game I have ever played!\

Locks up

The game itself seems to be pretty good, but my pc locks up way too often right in the middle of a race........very frustrating!! And I have a brand new 950MHz NVida HP, so I know it's not my pc's problem. But even if it didn't lock up, I don't think it's as good as NFS III. The tracks aren't as challenging, and the other race cars don't challenge you as well. The Porshe cars are cool, and the graphics good, but the fact that it locks up my pc and I have to reboot every ten minutes is rediculous. I just bought the game 10 days ago and I've already given up on it. Don't waste your money.

the Best There ever was

If you have not tried this game or even seen it try it. It is worth the 20 Dollars. The graphics are the best and has cool cars with awsem tracks.

Good, but not much substantial improvement

I think EA should stop trying to release a new version every year and really work on the NFS series to improve it. There really isn't a huge difference between NFS2 and this fifth installment. Yes, the graphics are a bit better as well as gameplay, but nothing compared to a lot of other sequals out there. If you have never played any other NFS games, then you still will love this, but for those of you who already own one of the older ones, you really aren't missing a whole lot.

Need more fun

To start out skip this game. Yes it looks great and the graphics are some of the best, but this game lacks the fun that the last version had. There are only four tracks to race. Yes there are lots of porsches to choose from, but the lack of tracks, different races and the missing pursuits is this games downfall. Who wants to drive one of the best cars in the world on these lame tracks and never get to fell the real speed of the game. If you want a better driving game go with driver or super bike 2001 or 2000. These are some of the best looking and best driving games, because of the number of tracks, graphics and just plain fun to drive. Once again skip Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed.

Awwsome!

This game rules it has the best graphics i've ever seen and it is so sweet because there are all these cars to chose from. the cars look exactly like a full size one would. there are some bad things though, like how there are only a few tracks. another thing that is awesome is that you get to damage your car and then repair it step by step. First the engine then the transmission then the body.

Overall this game kicks...............

What a disapointment!

It teases you with great courses (not enough of them, what about the autobahn guys?), good graphics and some of the cars I was hoping for. Unfortunately it doesn't matter that the courses look cool and you're in a great car because they got it all wrong. The fatal flaw with the game is the horrible handling. I have driven Porsches and ,although you can let off the gas at the wrong point in a turn and put it backwards through a hedge, they are the best handling cars ever made. And that balogna that you have to know how to drive them is so wrong. The 911 is the one car made that you can pretty much put you foot down and hang on. The lack of traction makes this game unrealistic and unplayable. And it's too bad Because I loved "Hot Pursuit". They could at least have the car tuning section like in other NFS. I guess if you like ice racing this game is for you.

the sweetest game ever
