this is an awesome game for any body that likes cars. It has a big selection of cars. the police are cool. you can even be the police. It has mega graphics. Really I can't see anything that is wrong about this game. I really reccomend it

Excellent Game--Questionable Graphics

This game is great. Lots of great cars, and I especially love being in pursuit. However, the game's major flaw is graphics. The FPS (frames per second) is just way to slow and entirely unacceptable for such a poweful machine as the Cube. The actual cars and scenery are beautiful, but if you're driving over a hill, or too many cars are around, the frame rate drops. Despite this major flaw (in my eyes) it is a terrific game with lots of replay value. Definitely a must to rent, a maybe to buy.

THE WORST GAME EVER

If there ever was a game that makes you want to die, this is this game. The game is horribly unrealistic and unfair. The police always go after you and never the opponents. You would have a much better time playing with a remote control car that has a dead battery. The moment I got rid of this game everything in my life started going better. I won the lottery, Jennifer Lopez fell in love with me, and I was elected to president. So, if you want this game, there is no hope for you.

eehhh, what ever

I like this game. i think it's a lot of fun and the cars all look great, but the game just goes down from there. i was racing the ferrari 550 (spell check please) i think and i was on the calipso coast track and while i drove 170mph the game really started to slow down. it got choppy like and there i went bouncing off walls. also, the detail to the game isn't what it should be. the track, sky, cars and effects all look good, but you look at the hills and trees and you don't get the realism of speeding away from cops in one of your dream cars. if you played this game on a ps2 then you would see what it's supposed to look/performe like. some other things the ps2 version has is an extra track. it's a desert track with tumble weeds and everything. the ps2 version has a really cool looking fall track. the gc one is alright, but the ps2 game has so much detail like leaves on the ground. you know, simple things. the cops are tougher, but you get three tickets instead of one and i liked that more. the ps2 game definitally runs smoother and is really fun. both are fun, but the ps2 version is just that much better. it ..., but it's true.

FOR GREAT CAR LOVERS ONLY!

I bought my 8 year old son a Game Cube but I never thought I would enjoy it as much as he does. In fact, I will admit, I hated the idea of my kid getting stuck in front of video game, but NEED FOR SPEED may be greatest game for boys to men (and the other sex, too)! Tremendously satisfying for only two kinds of individuals: 1) those who own a sports car, or 2) those who want to own a sports car! NFS should advertise in THE WALL STREET JOURNAL, TIME, NEWSWEEK, GQ, and SPORTS ILLUSTRATED!. My son and I have a wonderful time racing together. This is the greatest driving game ever!

Best Sports Car Racing Game Ever!!!

This is a coo racing game that any gamecube owner should check out. The racing is so addicting you'll find yourself stuck to the screen for hours at a time. The many different types of things to do keeps things new and fresh so you never get bored. being able to do lap knockouts where the person in last at the end of a lap is knocked out, and tournaments with points over the course of many different races, standard races, free driving for as long as you want on any area, and two types of championships style story modes. These linked events will earn you money to buy new cars and areas for multiplayer. The cars are fantastic and astounding. But what puts this out from other racing games is the ability to be a cop and chase down and destroy criminals with spike strips, choppers that explosive gas cannisters, and other cars that race ahead to ram the speeding villain. the game only lacks in one area. Plot, there is such a lack of plot that you wonder why you're doing it all but i really doesnt need one because its so fun without it.

Ths is game is the best out of the NFS line

This game is pretty good. the graphics are awesome. there are only a few drawbacks, first of all, its not very long. You don't really "beat" racing games, but i did pretty much everything there was to do in about a week. it didn' take me long at all. and another drawback is that there arn't very many cars. they advertise that there are a whole 20 cars. woopty-doo. anyways. other than the fact that the game is petty short and that there aren't very many cars this game is pretty good

It could have been a little better

The main reason why I say this is because the cars didn't handle very well, you'd be flying down the road just blowning by the dude in second (sound familar) and then comes this blindside curve and you go careening into the side and lose your lead. The only way to prevent that is if you brake beforehand (like 50 meters) and still have trouble around the turn. Another negative thing is the speed. You'd be going 200 km/h and it'd be looking like you're going 100 km/h. On the good side the hot pursuit mode is very fun and full of action. Championship mode is hard at times but other than that it's fun:)
