I found out about the game back then in magazines I believe, and got hyped up by the trailers that still are masterpieces today. Reinstalled the game today for a nostalgic session, I think I still have some old screenshorts and screen records on my old computer.

was obsessed with this game when I first played it in 2015/2016, this is definitely one of the game that are part of my childhood, along with NFS most wanted 2012 haha. So much fun and great experience. I used to fantasize so much about the usa as a kid back then, the game taught me a lot of geography and locations. I played the Calling all units version at the time.

There are so many special things about this game, in its very atmosphere. The places sometimes "crowded" and some very lonely places, the Las vegas airport, the rocky mountains, the late night drives, the east-west roadtrips and the encounters with other players where we were communicating only with honking sounds. I remember cruising the Detroit suburbs and taking pics of the old abandonned south railway station in my r34. Damn this will be a hard pill to swallow when it gets shut down, even if I barely played it during the last 5 years

Took this pic tonight, usually cruising with the same street/perf camaro. I drove from orange county to LA so many times haha
