Title
Another game I remember having as a kid, I think my uncle got this for us with the steering wheel, the funny thing is we never really used the wheel we just played with the controllers. Need for Speed III is a game I really only played for the Hot Pursuit segment, I gave literally no shits about any of the other game modes or features. Its essentially a basic racing game except you have cops chasing you and you need to evade them while racing others. The game hasn't aged too well and playing it now isn't the same but I remembering somewhat enjoying this when I was younger and remember hearing the cops get angry as they tried ramming your car off the road and arresting you. There was a decent variety of tracks and cars and it was different than a lot of other racing games but at the same time there are way better racing games and this has hardly aged well. but it does bring back some memories of the early 2000s for me.

    i once modded cars and tracks for this. if anyone still knows the software for that please post it.

    Never played this one, but I see the pattern that anyone who rates this highly is very likely to be an '80s-born millenial

      I was born the year this came out lmao. I remember playing this a lot on my family's old dinosaur computer as a kid, was probably my first proper game I ever played.

      Yeah, pretty much. I'm sure it's been outdone since by quite a few games. But I'm rating the experience I had when I was 12, playing it with a brand new Voodoo card.

    PC version looks so much better than PS1, even with the upscale emulation. I don't get why they didn't remaster it on PS2, it's quite good even for PS2.
