The Need For Speed

The
original Need for Speed was released for 3DO in 1994 with versions
released for the PC (DOS) (1995), PlayStation (1996) and Sega Saturn
(1996) following shortly afterwards. Most cars and tracks are available
at the beginning of the game, and the objective is to unlock the
remaining locked content by winning tournaments. The first version
featured chases by police cars which remained a popular theme
throughout the series - the so-called Hot Pursuit editions (Need for
Speed III: Hot Pursuit, Need for Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 and Need for
Speed: Most Wanted) have sold better in the marketplace than
intervening versions. The initial version also featured an obnoxious
opponent who taunted the player if the computer won the race or the
player is arrested (if the player is ticketed several times).

The
first installment of the NFS series was beyond doubt the series' only
serious attempt to provide a realistic simulation of car handling and
physics without arcade elements. Electronic Arts teamed up with
automotive magazine Road & Track to match vehicle behaviour,
including the mimicking of the sounds made by the vehicles' gear
control levers. The game also contained precise vehicle data with
spoken commentary, several "magazine style" images of each car interior
and exterior and even short video-clips highlighting the vehicles set
to music.

Another version of the game, called The Need for
Speed: Special Edition, is based on the 1995 PC release of the game,
and was released only for PC CD-ROM in 1996 It featured support for
DirectX 2 and TCP/IP networking, two new tracks, and various
enhancements in the game engine.

The Need for Speed and its
Special Edition are the only games in the series to support DOS, as
subsequent releases for the PC only run on Microsoft Windows 95 or
above.
