Excellent game, worth the money.
2 of 3 found this helpful Need for Speed Shift 2 Unleashed is a great racing game. I could even go as far as to say it is a racing simulator, but that would only apply to the feel of being in the cars. The reason why I got this game was because I wanted a break from Forza Motorsport 4. Shift 2 has many things that FM4 does not: a customizable interior, many more decals and graphics, realistic backfires, helmet-cam, and it also simulates the effects of high speed and crashes. Barrel rolling down a straight at 160 mph will make the screen go gray and blurry and shaky. Traveling at high speed will increase your focus on the road and blur everything in the car. One of the things that Shift 2 has that I wish FM4 had is drifting events. Drifting in Shift 2 isn't as hard as drifting in FM4, but it sure isn't easy either. As in Shift, Shift 2 allows you to look around in your cockpit. When you shift gears the driver actually moves the stick shift to the proper position. Money isn't very much trouble in this game, and there are plenty of opportunities to win cash bonuses, cars, and more. This game is a great game if you enjoy hardcore track racing.

NFS PU is an excellent game. No doubt one of my favorites.
Need for Speed Porsche Unleashed. The fifth installment in Electronic Arts' NFS series doesn't leave us hungry for action. It is a well-designed game centered around--you guessed it--Porsches. With more than 80 cars specially tailored to match real life performance, NFS PU definitely doesn't cut back on your thirst for vehicular action. Many different modes allow the player to drive to their specific type of preference. You can single race, compete in Factory Driver events, or step up to the big challenge: Evolution Mode. An innovative addition to the NFS PU game, this mode allows the player to buy their own Porsches, starting in 1950, and racing to earn cash, unlock new events, and progress through the years up until 2000. Evolution Mode is divided into 3 distinctive eras: Classic Era (1950-1969), Golden Era (1970-1988), and Modern Era (1989-2000). At the end of each event, the years move forward a little bit, and new cars are available, and old ones are no longer for sale (sometimes). At the end of each era there is a special race that you can compete in to win a Race Version car from that era. Winning the Classic Era Bonus Race awards you the revolutionary 1956 550A Spyder, the Golden Era Bonus Race nets you the inspirational 1978 935 "Moby Dick", and winning the Modern Era Bonus Race wins you the 1998 Porsche 911 GT1. One of my personal favorites with the Evolution Mode is the inclusion of a Used Car Market, where you can buy damaged cars from previous years for your garage, fix them up, and customize/upgrade them to your needs. Speaking of upgrading, NFS PU is the first NFS to allow you to upgrade your car from numerous different categories and actually pick out what you want to upgrade (although still somewhat generic). NFS High Stakes allowed upgrades, but on the level of "Level 1" "Level 2" etc. You can sell your old cars in the Used Car market as well. Also, as the years progress, older cars will tend to become more valuable due to inflation, to the point of an 11,000 credit 1950 356 will inflate to over 100,000 credits in the late 1990's! Porsche Unleashed also offers a challenging Test Driver mode, where you can take on 36 challenges, increasing in difficulty. Along the way, you will meet new team members, accept race challenges, and perform stunts. You can also get promotions, which will land you new special cars with paint jobs that you can't get anywhere else in the game. Multiplayer is also available. As with the previous NFS title, you can save replays and view them later. Now there is one thing that should be mentioned. Some people have had problems with an error called PORSCHE.ICD ERROR. It basically makes it so every time you try to load your profile to start the game it will crash and give you this error. No one to date has figured out a solution to this. It is in my experience that this usually comes along if you keep the bonus cars won in Evolution Mode in your garage when you quit the game. Although they are fun to drive, I usually sell them on the Used Car Market as soon as I win them. However, not everyone has this problem, and although it is very upsetting when you lose all progress and must start over, it definitely is a game you will play over and over again. I have had this game for over 6 years now, and I am every bit happy with it. It has gotten me interested in Porsches, and it would be an excellent gift for someone with a keen interest in the Porsche history.

This game is one of the best NFS games released to date.
This game has to be one of my all-time favorites for the PC. The game offers excellent graphics even by today's standards, it has many modes to keep you entertained for months, and even offers the ability to customize the cars and tracks for yourself (if you know how to manipulate the game files). The AI are agressive and much more realistic than in previous NFS titles. The cops actually make you try hard to get away, and even I, 18 years old, will play the game on Advanced difficulty and will struggle to escape the cops. The 2 career modes offer an increasingly-difficult tree of events that will keep you entertained for a long, long time. The driving environment is absolutely gorgeous. There are actually lots of places where the road/path widens and allows you to drive along multiple paths or between trees, buildings, etc. This game is still one that I play today, alongside NFS Porsche Unleashed and NFS High Stakes (the previous two titles in the NFS series). Overall 5/5. You drive cars such as the Lotus Elise, Mustang Cobra R, Dodge Viper GTS, McLaren F1, Ferrari 550 Barchetta, and many more...and to make things better, NFScars.com offers a massive array of downloadable cars if you want to replace some of the less exciting cars (if there is such a thing). If this is your first NFS game, I would strongly reccomend purchasing it. I still have mine even 10 years later. Do yourself a favor and get this game.
