Back before You Tube came along, you had to hope you saw it somewhere like a computer software store playing on the screens from tapes sent to the store via the manufacturer. Well, that's exactly where I saw this game. My brother who worked in a computer software store at the time brought home a 3DO demo reel tape. We were in awe of The Need for Speed.

While Top gear 1 and 2 were absolutely fantastic racing games, this was something totally new. Real cars. Not only that, but every car had an in-car view. Peeling out at the starting line. Racing in normal everyday traffic. COPS! OMG! There are COPS in this game!!! Get pulled over 3 times and game over. WOW! CRASHES! There are actually crashes instead of smacking an opponent and simply being slowed down. DOUGHNUTS!!!! YES!! DOING DOUGHNUTS IN A LAMBO!!! Realistic looking tire smoke and tire sounds. Ok I need to settle down now lol. The game was simply incredible. To nobody's surprise the 3DO saw an early death due to it's expense and got crushed by Sega, Sony, and ...
