Nerve Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 (edited) Title says it all really, I'm looking to get my hands on a Need For Speed game but I can't decide which one. Any ideas? :) I'll probably be buying a wheel to go with it, so if anyone has any recommendations I'd appreciate it.

lalalawawawa Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 Hmm... I would say Need For Speed: Underground 2. ;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zapadlo Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 This is not really a viable option for you, but I believe nfs3: Hot Pursuit was the best :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chsoriano Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 +1 for NFSU2, I really enjoyed that game... the only new(er) game that I've enjoyed was Most Wanted. I heard the newest one wasn't too bad, much better than Pro Street at least. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minifig Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 This is not really a viable option for you, but I believe nfs3: Hot Pursuit was the best :) :yes: . NFS 3: HP and NFS 3: HP-2.. were where it was at. After that... they started going way down hill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harlem39s Finest Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 most wanted was the last good nfs game imo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

howarang15 Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 My personal favs are: NFS 2 - first one i played NFS 3 Hot Pursuit NFS Hot Pursuit 2 - last one you can play as cops if i remember correctly NFS Underground - best online play NFS Underground 2 - best online play NFS Most Wanted - much better than carbon and pro street, undercover is pretty much the same as most wanted but i still think most wanted is better and had good story Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantpotato Posted April 19, 2009 Share Posted April 19, 2009 :rolleyes: oops, thanks San. (Y) Well, does anyone have recommendations for a steering wheel?(Changed the topic title slightly.) Logitech G25. I have one and there is absolutely no other wheel that can beat it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nerve Posted April 19, 2009 Author Share Posted April 19, 2009 Logitech G25. I have one and there is absolutely no other wheel that can beat it. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Logitech-G25-Racin...C/dp/B000I7NRNC It looks amazing, but it's too expensive, I'd say ?100 tops.

solardog Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 :o and why's that? arcade racers = joystick/game pads, while sims = steering wheels... which doesn't explain why I'm using an Xbox 360 controller for GTR Evo. In other words, I was mostly kidding. :blink: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deletedxyz Posted April 20, 2009 Share Posted April 20, 2009 Steering wheel + NFS = blasphemy :boo: I have to agree there. Using a steering wheel in an arcade racing game doesn't suit the game at all. It's actually BETTER to use a gamepad. Steering wheel are best used for games like GTR2, rFactor, Race 07 WTCC. Test Drive Unlimited is probably where the line is when arcade meets simulation. Then again... It's all according to user preference. For now, NFS is best played with a gamepad rather than keyboard or steering wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you don't like Outrun with a steering wheel? :o I want Gran Turismo 5. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
