4.0 out of 5 stars Wanna Race?, April 8, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Need for Speed: High Stakes (CD-ROM)

As a fan of Need for Speed 3: Hot Pursuit, I have to tell you, High Stakes is the next best thing. I am a particular fan of the hot pursuit aspect of the game, so I was a little skeptical if HS was going to pan out. I was pleased to find out that the only thing I found wrong with it was that there aren't as many cool cars to download for it than there is for NFS 3. I love the realness of the cars, and the new Pursuit functions too. Also, the new tracks are very nice. I know how boring the same old tracks can get, and how after a while you just fly through them without noticing it. I have to say, this game is well worth it if you want a cool racing game, and don't have a lot of time to get good, because you'll get the hang of this one real quick! It's no NASCAR Racing 4, so don't be afraid to try it out!

5.0 out of 5 stars The one and only racing game for the PC, July 31, 2001

This review is from: Need for Speed: High Stakes (CD-ROM)

This is the best, the creme de la creme so to say. Need for Speed High Stakes has it all: All tracks of NFSIII, first of all. Superfast cars. Beautiful tracks. Fast graphics. And tons of fun. All I ever play is the Hot Pursuit mode which cracks me up everytime I hear the British cops on "Durham Road". This game is fun, fun, fun.
