"Need for Speed II" for the PlayStation 1, released in 1997, is the second installment in the popular Need for Speed racing game series. Developed by EA Canada and published by Electronic Arts, the game builds on the success of its predecessor, offering players a high-speed racing experience.

The game features a diverse selection of exotic and high-performance cars, ranging from renowned manufacturers like Ferrari, Ford, and Lotus. Players can race these vehicles across a variety of tracks, each with its own unique challenges and environments. The locations include scenic landscapes, city streets, and challenging race circuits.

"Need for Speed II" introduces several gameplay modes, including the standard single race and tournament modes. One notable addition is the "Knockout" mode, where the racer in last place is eliminated at regular intervals until only one remains.

The graphics are unfortuntely not so good, with low detail all around, including the car models. There's also some frame drop issues in certain parts of the game.

Overall, the game's emphasis on speed, diverse car selection, and engaging gameplay contributed to its positive reception, making it a notable entry in the Need for Speed series during the late 1990s.
