Hey, just been trying out Need for Speed 2 on Gamecube. Nice game, especially with all the cop chases. Only problem is that if you play it directly after Burnout 2, then it feels sooooo slow. Mind you, I thought Burnout 2 was too fast!

2 Quality car games out in time for Christmas? Cool, and one of them on all three formats too. Plus Shox will be out for the Cube next month.

It's not actually a virus smarty pants, it's just a waste of time trying to get it to work.

I need a better graphics card that's all.

I downloaded one of those emulators from Kazaa once trying to play Mario Tennis. Now it's taken over my whole computer and Mario Tennis doesn't work.

Darn emulator thingy!

After the N64 version, I thought I was over Mario Kart, until I started playing it over the net using the ZSnes emulator... now I'm starting to take me over again... bloody Nintendo!

Played both and they were both the same, though I prefer the Gamecube controller. Actually played it on the Wavebird, nice.

I went and bought Need for Speed: HP2, couldn't wait any longer to play it again. It just gets better and better as you get points to unlock tracks. I played Burnout 2 as well for a long time, still prefer NFS though.

Buy a PS2 and get the PS2 version of Need for speed - one of the best games of the year, and its FAST.

Need for Speed! Very fun.

However, in terms of racers, we all know Mario Kart and F-Zero will kick racing gonads next year - whenever they are released!

I've played Shox on the PS2. Good game.
I've played Burnout 2 for the PS2. Good game.
I haven't played Need for Speed. Nice game, eh? Too slow compared to Burnout 2? Well it ain't good enough. :D
