Hands down💯

Wouldn't play it anywhere else!

Sadly yes

Agree with ya

PS2 is not the best version, it's the best game in the series.

sammmme

Agreed, almost as good as Underground 2 imo. Oh how I missed the days when NFS was king and not just a payroll for EA

@@solitaryclusterofneurons598 now the new king is forza horizon

@@solitaryclusterofneurons598 it is better than that

No.

On PS2 it look much worse becouse of resolution 640x480

Agreed!

You r right lad

I agree

i agree. i bought it on the gamecube and its fun but the graphics are worse on it and it doesnt have the same gamer experience.

I had the GameCube version only so I’m gonna always say that’s the greatest but yeah the PS2 was a solid version as well

I feel you bro. Those golden nostalgic days

@@waterproof4403 Ikr golden days

Just got the 2020 remaster for the switch on sale for 9.99 and I didn't see a split screen option which was disappointing but the mutiplayer seemed fun. Nothing will ever top having the crew come over and racing through.

It’s crazy how life moves on

you could still have done all of that and instead bought a game that didnt suck dick

Omg, ur here

👍☹️

Remake its better, remaster do not will make more difference.

Why? Just play it, why do you need it resold to you?

@@ajatuslakko856 So that more people know the game, and also it would be very good to see a game that marked his childhood being relaunched with graphics and mechanics of the present time.

Haven’t heard that phrase in a long time

i like because its sort of realistic and fun at the same time

@@lucasscoz6090 exactly

A good mix of realism and movie physics.

@@seandafny what phrase?

NFSU all over again

I miss them :(

Same

Hell yeah I'm from Paraguay and this is my childhood

Same

So many bro

yeah man. the best car game i've ever played

Me too

hell yeah king. this was my first video game ever

@@scenebabe06 legend

same! I loved this game so much in the days!

Just downloaded the whole playlist to my phone

Reading all the comments from the great memories people had while playing this game made me cry. Thank you so much EA Black Box (developers of the PS2 version) and Electronic Arts for making the best Need for Speed game of my childhood, you guys are amazing. 🥲❤️

you didn't lost them, bro

You’re right mate 😎👍🏾

They also crammed a more realistic set of physics.

Unless you consider C3 racing arcade then I think that's the most underrated racing game.

👍

Nostalgia 🇺🇲

I'm surprised this hasn't gotten a remaster yet

My addiction was trying to get the McLaren f1 to break 240 mph, still havent and now my driving skills ingame and off have multiplied by tenfold since then. Fuck I need to play this again i believe the McLaren can go faster than 240. Which is my most favorite car that I'd pick over a Bugatti. While the f1 sports a v8 from BMW with only 600hp to get up to 20YRS OF HIGH SPEED STREET LEGAL RECORD over the Gattis what 2 v8's with a set of twin turbos on each motor to get 1,000 and yet the veyron only first managed to get 253mph... smh

@Ginas Secret LGBTQ Channel LMFAO 😂 😂

Yes it Is and probably will be the best racing game ever

Matthew Shea yup! I'd be fine if they keep the same cars from that era too

They cant because of licensing issues

Ripperooney from who? Car brands? They still use the same brands today and some is gone

@@IvanRides Yeah what issues?

ikr .. dam son. lol xD

Rip his multi million dollar car

I said "well he just lost" and then WHAM!!! nevermind.

oof

Weird that it didnt flip because of air though.

Licensing is a pain. That's most of the reason we haven't got a remaster of any of the popular NFS games.

They'd probably put in a ton of micro-transactions, so I dunno if I want that... at least this version can still be played whenever on an emulator.

I really hate licensing fees. They are pain. To add insult to injury, they are one-time use.

If EA remaster this game, you'll gotta pay to unlock car instead of using nfs points

@@xijinpingflamenguista1432 I don't think so.

@John 'Hot action cop' and 'Ordinary' are my favourites.

Same man

Remake its better.

@@Victor_2000s Remaster to conserve the game's atmosphere with it's original graphics is actually better

If you want you can jailbreak your console or buy jailbroken and play this game. I playing Hot Pursuit 2 on my PS3 and it runs good.

It was badass :)) that guy knows how to drive. 4:00 and this dodge was pure gold

That really was badass, you betcha !!

Ooooo!👌👍✌

Dodging traffic in a Dodge. HA!

Jordan Price that was a smooth drift I’ll tell you

I agree

U can play this game @4k on xbox series s and x thru emulation (no hacking needed)

@@moes95 how? I’d love to. Please tell me. I have no clue how.

@@moes95 You absolutely can't 😂

Bit late but make sure to use a component cable to connect your PS2 to the TV! Makes a huge difference to picture quality

MetalJesusRocks 👍

You do have a point.

There are widescreen patches available for the emulator that preserve the aspect ratio of the game assets and HUD. It looks to me like it's being used in this video, but I could be wrong.

"Buiiiild your caaaaages praaaaay for freeedom"

Hot action cop Buzzhorn

'Ordinary' was my shit. I actually have 5 or 6 of these songs on my fone music player in 2020.

Play it for 56 hours

@@rizwandiawalludien4048 pulse ultra! yes sureeeee

I was 4 when this game came out. Ofc I don’t know when I got the game but my game has a lot of memories from the very scratched up but still surprisingly readable disc to the original cut up plastic on the case with the art cover having a deep cut in it from a key (don’t ask how) until I put the art cover into a new case I had from a newer game without a cut in the case cover. That’s how you know your game has been through a lot of memories when you lovingly mess up the game like I did.

yes they have really good drive songs!

Hot cop action

@Neon - Corolla Virus lol, a cringe 12 years old that think tuning era is better than this

Hey, its still fun, plus you can mod it, well cars, but it still has its nice things.

Got me thinking : has anyone ever mod the graphics to near that of PS2?

The cops felt like an overwhelming force in this game: always faster, more, and could do bombing una with the chopper. The underdog feeling hasn't really been accomplished that well other than the final pursuit in MW05.

Huskyr2004 M YEAH Is the Playback?

Payback is ok but all the other need for speed games need remastered 4K graphics

Whirlpool Woldhek need for speed hot pursuit is a my favorite game on PlayStation 2 and still have game and Console my favorite car on that game is Dodge Viper and svt Mustang cobra r

Nose hablar muy bien el inglés pero haré un esfuerzo ( For me it is also my favorite and the cars that I Love Playing with are the Ferrari F50 , Lamborghini Murcielago and Ferrari 360 Spider. You are a Men o Girl?

Jesse Powell They Are Fast

Now we're falling back to zero thanks to Criterion. And EA itself.

It still looks great in 2021

there is nitro in this game, the cop has one lol

yod more like a mad boost lmao

Franz Marcos it does

sidekick I hate it too, it's not enjoyable. I'm old fashioned, I like one raw semi-realistic physics model. I don't mind drifting, but I want it to be because the natural physics model loses grip and reacts like in NFS Underground and games before that, not because I push a button and it changes into "drift physics mode" and turns corners faster. I want my car to feel like an actual car, a lot of people do. Except for Ghost because for some reason they are delusional thinking NFS is all about drifting around a corner at 200mph. Look in this video, xTimelessGaming only slides when he either pushes the handbrake or rapidly turn left-right-left, and that's because the tyres lost grip. It didn't activate another physics model. To me, this is NFS. Heck, everything up until Shift had a natural physics model. Ever since brake to drift in HP2010, every NFS has had that stupid gimmick, it's unnatural and lame. How long do we have to wait until we see a normal NFS game?

Yeah, seems that's a common sense, not sure why they just don't do it!

Marcelo Tezza I know, all the fans are asking for it. Every year all the fans ask for is a physics model like the classic NFS games had. That's why the likes of this, Most Wanted and Underground are considered the best games. But for some reason Ghost can't compute. People just want the cars to handle like a car. Everything else about Ghosts games are pretty good. In all the other aspects of it they are doing what the fans ask. Everywhere except for the actual handling model, but to be fair, they've been working on this handling model since Rivals and built off it. They probably don't want to start from scratch again. But just look at HP2. You have suspension physics, which effects grip, and when your car goes loose it's because your car actually went loose, you didn't press a button to activate drift mode.

NFS the Run has similar handling but it lacked content.

First Last No it didn't. It had the Brake to drift crap from Hot Pursuit 2010 didn't it?

I played on both, PC version looked wayy better and ran smoother too.

@@Nitro192192 No it didn't. If you think so you're opinion is actually wrong as it's a fact that the PS2 version looked better.

Agree! PC version is total shit! First time i seen PS2 version, but playid first time on PC and have that strange sense... something was wrong... after several years i found out, what was wrong :D it's two different games!

PC version is a different game.

The only thing good about pc verson it is the online you know online in 2002

That's what she said! Ha ha ha... A dead joke..

No, the NFS version is the best (and easier to unlock)

Uh no, the nfs version of the McLaren F1 is. And also the fastest and best handling. It was designed to be the best car in the game.

F1 is the best car in the game haha

F1 is faster but the F1 LM has better handling.

@@Umber1911 and a better acceleration

lol the AI so fckin nub (even on EXPERT).. i cant stop laughing when recording this. xD

梁川自由Владимир Arabic

EXACTLY! I'm sick of these racing "games" with cutscenes and open motherfucking worlds and mandatory tuning cars. i just want to turn on the game and race in a 2/3 lap race with 8 cpu cars for fuck sake

Such a simpler times

Play Hot Pursuit Remastered

Maybe these games have the same engine.

if you noticed, ps2 hp2, ug1, ug2 had the same traffic cars

@@yod7934 well blackbox did work on all those games you mentioned so they would use that copy and paste

@@Victor_2000s I kinda doubt it due to how different these games are from each other. Physics, graphics, textures

U are what u feel
