  • Just the music alone is so... Nostalgic, one of the best racing games I remember playing as a child. Back then, it was just a Need for Speed, not a Need for cars tuned beyond recognition... Just Speed.

  • haha I remember playing this when I was like 4 or 5 xD

  • The golden era of racing games:)

  • shit old days

  • @MetroidTixer Yeah when i was 4 i played with my dad this game, this game is awesome

  • Man, I spent my YOUTH playing this GAME... WHAT a BEAUTIFUL MEMORY :)

  • even after 10 years after I last played it, I still get shivers down my spine and arms when the music comes on as the cars roll up at 0:24... 10 YEARS after! No game will never ever do that to me again in my entire life, sad and amazing at the same time!

  • LOL,

    This sequence is better than all the Fast and Furious movies put together !

  • 1:16

    HATERS GONNA HATE

  • Now thats what I call an intro to a great game, live action. This game got bad reviews, but we are the true critics. The fans opinion is more important.

  • WOW. now THAT'S a video game

    I wish they would've at least kept the newer nfs games b*tch-free

  • Thanks! The street at second 0,22 is in Posada, italy! SS125

  • How hard was it, to get those unique Prototypes and drive them at speeds like this?

  • I love NFS 1 2 3!!!! Classic

  • Check out the cinematic techniques and the camera work with music synchronisation, in the intro as well as the car videos. What a badass opening.

  • Man, how I missed the old classic NFS, I mean, this game was my first NFS game, I will never forget the awesome gameplay, the track description and awesome car shows, everyone now bugs for Underground 3, well, I just want something like this

  • I loved this fucking game to death. I remember playing as T-Rex with my friend lol.

  • these are the days when nfs was badass. now it's gay. :(

  • Man, this brings back memories.

  • i love this game better than any other need for speed game

  • does anyone recognize the music? or is it original for the game?

  • @rgfuller2 The music is the original soundtrack!

  • 1:11 Epic!!

  • LOL 

  • I wish this. Become a remix

  • This is what NFS should be.. with highly imporve graphic and Frostbite engine 2 this game will be perfect

  • I used to headbang to the song!! \m/ -_- \m/

  • 0:34 what is the yellow car???

  • @johnwillyn is the lambo of the 90's most called " italdesign "cala" concept"

  • oh how i'd love to fall back into these days....

    that was need for speed

    sadly, it WAS.....

  • there is always one more gear! :D

  • mam to jeszcze gre na psx

  • Italdesign Cala and Jaguar XJ200, two of the most beautiful cars ever.

  • need for speed: REMAKE ALL OF THE CLASSICS and i promise, you will have to start typing SOLD OUT on your lists right away, they were soooo good!!!!!

  • Classic Trailer!

  • Jaguar the beschd car in the world.

  • Mclaren FTW!!

  • omg, i remember my dad always cheat on the oval track. at the start he would just drive to the far right where there's no car and pass everyone lol. my brother's favorite card was the mclaren, my sister's the f40 or f50 i forgot which, and mine was the jag or the white futuristic ford depending on my mood xD so sad i lost the CD good times good times

  • this game was the first time i beat someone in a game of anything. i beat my older sister and her 11 year old friend. i was 4 :P

  • Supercars of the 90's were the best... period.

  • Good old days of playing with a friend on the same keyboard ^^

  • Best intro to a racing game, and plus it had all those live videos showcasing each car. This game was sick.

  • Its really sad i lost the CD for this awesome game. :(

  • seriously ...i literlly SHIT my pants when i saw this intro back in 1996 or when ever it was....jesus....LIKE A BAAWS

  • the fuck happened to EA, their soundtrack used to be amazing.

  • The Best Need For Speed Ever !<3

  • This is much cooler than a CGI intro!!!

  • i remember this when i was 5-6years old <3

  • when i heard this, i thought of monolithic studios because the intro theme is actually Gore :)

  • haaha i remember jammin to this as a lil one.

  •  i wish the ea still revive the pure need for speed than the newer because the pure nfs die with a sports car :(

  • epic intro!

  • I feel the need... the need... to use the toilet brb.

  • I think I just jerked into my pants.

  • guauuu, one corsa loool jajaja

  • @ 1:09 - 1:10 I was like 'What the fuck?! What is that starship doing in the video??'

  • This game rocks even nowdays, if u have glidewrapper, u can use see this game at its best

  • what today's nfs creators don't understand is that nfs means 'need for SPEED' and so the games have to be larger than life. ignore realism for once and go with something crazy. this is the reason nfs II was so good. it was larger than life. who cares if people can't afford these cars in real life? you build games like this so that they can experience these cars...

  • @peevishly The original creators don't develop nfs series since NFS hot pursuit 2, because EA decided to put a new and newbie developer (Black Box), and put the original creators to develop other games (EA Sports); for this, since NFS Underground, the series had another direction; only Criterion games tried to return the series as the Original creators were, but...

    The Original creators were EA Canada, before known as Distinctive Software Inc (DSI), the same of Test Drive.

    See you

  • My first computer game ;).

  • Anyone else remember how amazing this was as a kid playing with his dad?

  • @MetroidTixer and my brother and my bestfriends :P

  • @MetroidTixer as i should say it myself :)

  • @MetroidTixer change dad to cousin and that's me (':

  • BUY MILLION DOLLAR CAR

    CRASH INTO ANOTHER MILLION DOLLAR CAR

  • Back in the day quality things were released, becouse what was bad didn't even make it to the stores i guess... People bought what they knew would be good. It was only real life shoping. Now the internet took over...

  • Wie ktoś jak można jeszcze zagrać w Need for Speed High Stakes, czy NFS 2, na Windowsie XP?

  • @MegaKuba2011 Normalnie

  • @przyklad12 Chodzi mi o to, że nie mogę w to zagrać, bo Windows XP jest zbyt nowy na stare gry! Pobrałem sobie emulator Windowsa 98, i wszystko fajnie... tyle, że tnie i muli okropnie!

  • XJ200 Rocks!

  • and this intro is the best !!!

  • graphics may not have been the best, physics not the truest, but this need for speed still goes down as the rawest thus far

  • I would never ever forget about that supreme-amazing unforgettable "3..2..1..GO!!" soundtrack

  • awesome intro. actual footage of real cars is always better than the cgi shit they use these days.

  • Car porn.

  • Real cars, no tunning. Just FAST cars !

  • epic

    

  • 1:40 WTF!!! LOL xD

  • If they re-make this game keeping EVERYTHING the same except for highly advanced, superb life-like graphics, I'll buy it anyday.

  • @Quarker99 I would but 2 of them i give u 1 as a gift xD

  • @Quarker99 That would be a pretty sexy game.

  • @Quarker99 No need to remake it, it's perfection.

  • @Quarker99 I HEAR YOU. This game had excellent gameplay, physic, and sense of speed. I hope they remake it KEEPING EVERYTHING THE SAME ... but maybe add NFS3 and 4 Tracks and Cars + Better graphics ... (But that's asking a lot, I already know it will never happen :( 

  • I freakin loved and still love this game...

    and the intro..

    also, today, Youtube has a 1911 button that turns everything "old-timey"(or silent movie style) and its funny :p

  • 1:44 lol!kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk 126598442mph?lol

  • Memories man. When I was 6 or 7, whenever I would see the cars start burning up my eyes would always be going out thier sockets....and they still do. LOL

  • @mrn4s Get out! This song and game were and still are legendary.. unlike some of the later 'gay boy street racer' NFS titles

  • I almost cryed!!! one of the best intros ever! so many memories!

  • Holy fuck, this is so cheesy it makes me explode in awe at its cheesiness! I love it!

  • why EA doesn't make games like this anymore

  • 1:37 Holy Shit they're going to the year 1955!!!!

  • Comment removed

  • Damn I loved that game!

  • My favorite part was the bit where the cars went fast.

  • FUCKING LOVE THIS GAME i have goosebumps right now :)

  • I love Mclaren F1 it's the best car on world

  • the time pass quickly waw Mc laren is the best

  • the time pass quickly waw

  • when I was a kid, I wished so hard I was the guy driving the yellow car I idolized that mf

  • @30301500 I do did too! That's the Lamborghini Cala. I really wish they had put that car in production. I must take a trip to the Lamborghini Factory in Italy before I die to see that car.

  • imagine you were the driver of one of the slow cars :D

  • The sequence when the McLaren is shown is so epic, since i saw this the first time it is my favorite car.

  • Seeing these oldskool games on youtube makes me nostalgia so hard.

  • I remember this game. I was played it in 1997, when i was 10.

  • @kazik1234321 exact same thing man! and you know what? now i'm a professional musician and awesome sports car driver! :)

  • @alucard0712 You are damn lucky, my friend! I am a professional musician too, but I don't have the awesome sports car part of the equation!

  • Ahhh the 90's......... Such a simpler time....

  • And Fiat Punto on 1st place :D

  • Lol @ 1:06 The Fiat is afraid of it's much better Italian cousin which wants to pass his slow ass. 

  • thumbs up if u think this game is still the best game of NFS serires ...

  • oh! when the videos was REAL videos

  • Good Times :)

  • also known as the glide edition

  • 0:51 poor Corsa,got 0wned

  • Best intro in the racing game history.

  • Fun fact: The McLaren F1 has tripled it's value by now. You'll now have to pay 3 million bucks if you want one. Don't invest in stocks folks, invest in cars!

  • This brings back so many great memories!!

  • 1:36 was always amazing :D

  • Ha! The production value is so low compared to today's games, really shows how the industry has moved on... Nostalgia ftw!

  • @olliemultimedia what production value are you talking about? those are cars that cost hundreds of thousands of dollars!

  • @kittykatro production value means the amount of money they spent on producing the whole video and I was comparing it to a video of today's standards.

  • @olliemultimedia I think they spent some money- those cars aren't cheap....And today's intros are usually CGI not filmed.

  • why are old games the best? New games, unless you can find a actual good one, usually always suck..

    take that call of duty!

  • that yellow car at the start never went into production did it?

  • @hyundaixl no it didn't :D

  • The end is missing, where the McLaren F1's doors closed.

  • @Countrymusicman1982: that could be seen in the original Need For Speed 2. The intro shown here is from the Need for Speed 2 SE (Special Edition). It came with an extra track and a couple of extra cars

  • intro is EPIC ! great time, great game, great 90's 

  • this is what you call the ROOT of ND4SPD... so much bad ass than today's need for speed..

  • MacLaren look so evil and scary in this seconds 1.11 Fuckin A

  • I love 1:12, when the McLaren slowly moves past the screen - Give the same eeriness as a shark moving in for the kill

  • So many memories... This intro is just amazing.

  • good memories comes back :)

    this was time when EA worth something, not like today...

  • ahhh brings back memories!!!

  • What genre is this music? It's so catchy, I want to seek some more of thar kind. Some kind of industrial-electro-rock?

  • Fucky;(\

    

  • This game was the best and still the best. NOTHING will defeat this game. This game is SOOOOO 10 out of 10. Only if these days on standard cars shit stick were like that, it would be so sexy on it :D

    best thing to do is play this game over and over again :D Got windows 7 and still play this when I have time :P

  • thx

  • BEST!!! I LOVE IT !!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hurrah!! I can actually watch these now! Most of time the intro and car videos would make my computer freeze whenever I tried to watch them.

  • 1:11 kicks really ass, it's like the king is rolling in, I really like the way the game made the F1 look like some God or spaceship...

  • this STILL gives me chills.

  • At 1:13 the mclaren looks like a 10 point model walking by!

  • name of yellow car?

  • @Suport7000 italdesign cala,

    Awesome game! Got it working on XP;D I'd tell you guys how but i forgot, but google it! I did and i got it working... Wasn't very difficult either..

    Long ive the 90's,

  • XJ220 vs cala

  • @pasi260398

    hell, and both the ingame trailers for those cars were awesome. The music and everything :D

    I wish new games had "real" movies like back then.

    The intro is awesome :D

  • I loved and still love this intro :D

  • @z3r01245 No other racing game intro can beat this.

  • I remember playing that game one time when i was 9. enjoyed every second. The intro is fucking epic too.

  • grafika jak na C-64  eeee

  • Brings back fond memories of over a decade ago!

  • What this song??????????? plz

  • @NightWolf72Rus

    The Song is "Gore" by Saki Kaskas y Jeff Dyck, is the same song in the extra track "Monolithic Studios" of same game: Need For Speed II

    See you later!!

  • @SakuraMay thx man)))))) nice song

  • nostalgia! i played this game when i was 7 and had loads of fun! i remember when i could only play one stage because i didn't know how to switch places. few months later i found out and i was so excited about every new stage that i could see!!

    everything is messed up now.

    hopefully criterion's NFS HP 2 will revive the games!

  • Why cant the new need for speeds be like this??? They are all crap now and all turned toward "fast and the furious" which was awesome 10 years ago lol

    I remember buying this game brand new on pc when i was a kid!

  • My fav part in this intro had to be the XJ220 hitting 7,000rpms. We need Road & Track back....

  • @Aztech355 i love those short flashs with the gear and the rev counter 8D

  • Do you remember that this video was interlaced in the PC version. Yuck I hated interlaced fmv videos back then in pc games.

  • Still sends shivers down my spine that, what an awsome game! Good memories

  • Ow man that bring back memories! This was so awsome when i was a kid!

  • This intro never failed to turn me on at 00:23, when the music starts
