Track&Road Need for Speed
The Need for Speed, born in '94, was like a turbo-charged time machine featuring eight licensed sports cars and about as varied a number of vehicles on traffic, three point-to-point tracks, and the option to race solo or dodge computer opponents. Checkpoints, traffic (limited variation in cars), and police chases spice things up.
Ports on: MS-DOS in '95, PlayStation and Sega Saturn in โ96. Japan even got a snazzy version called Overdrivinโ DX. And Windows users? They revved up with The Need for Speed SE (Special Edition) ๐
EA teamed up with Road & Track to get the feel of high speed driving, a sense of physics, the engine sounds, gear shifts, lengthy tracks with lush, detailed environments rendered at 640x480. The game included precise vehicle data, great stills of the cars incl details and videos set to fitting music** (the music has been left out or purposefully mamed to avoid pointless music claim bots activating).
Critics gave it a green light, praising the realism and graphics. And guess what? This turned out to be the first in a whole line of iconic Need for Speed series, leaving actual tire marks on your screen and on the racing game genre!
My Scores:
Graphics: 90%
Gameplay: 80%
Sound: 80%
I advise playing the game with a gamepad / joystick - analog controls work very well in this game. The release for original Playstation had no dual shock / analog support.
In this video I used DOS-Box-X a variant of DOS-BOX on Linux Mint running NFS within the standard MS-DOS 5.x compatibilty layer provided within DOS-BOX
