The Need for Speed franchise has changed the way people look at racing simulators. Here are the cheats, hints, and cheat codes for this game.
If games like Counter-Strike and Quake define First Person Shooters (FPS), then Need for Speed (NFS) defines racing games. NFS has been around ever since computer gaming began to gain importance.
NFS is a racing game in which the player has to choose a car from the pool of cars and complete missions while racing on different tracks. It was, and still is, very user-friendly. Owing to the simplicity of the game’s controls and existence of a thin progressive knack, players are tightly gripped to it.
