Need for Speed: Porsche 2000 (AKA porsche unleashed) was released 26 years ago. It did something different from other videogames. You could drive across the beautiful European countryside, and explore this particular car brand and its history.

I haven’t found other games that allow you to basically travel through europe’s most beautiful landscapes with your car and just take in the scenery like that. It was right before the whole trend started with “tuning” culture, spurred by the fast and the furious franchise. (love or hate it, it changed the whole landscape)

What other games would you say are similar to this experience?

    With a game called literally “Need For Speed”, I dunno…
