    racing on a headless horse, ive done the damage set the course.

    pointed sticks and and ancient feasts, in my dreams i feed on beasts…

    theres no sun here, no reflection, waiting for the ressurrection.

    paleness shines in moonlit places, alien beings in wooden cases…

    This game gave me a life long love of the 1997 McClaren F1. Fastest street legal sports car at the time. Top speed of 232 mph.

    If I became a multimillionaire tomorrow I would immediately seek out a 1997 McClaren F1. I never liked the look of the newer models.

    The only videogame my dad has ever gotten into (other than Pong) was NFS II SE. He wouldn’t race, he just liked driving around at 35 MPH and looking at the scenery. He enjoyed this so much he bought a wheel and pedals for it. I loved this game as a kid, and the fact that I could play it with a wheel. The song “Headless Horse” off the soundtrack is pure 90s cool as well.

    Not my 1997; we were way too poor for that. My asshole first stepfather would be alive again and I would be back in the latter half of highschool, so a pass all around from me (but y’all feel free to enjoy good memories :) )

      Create some new memories now. NFSmw 2005 can still run on W11 and it has a patch on Github that unlocks and tweaks everything. You can turn off the rubberbanding cheating that the games does and you can actually enjoy the game!

    Neat! I finished Need for Speed 4 like a year ago. I was never able to beat it as a kid. That felt good.

    They didn’t really go well for me. I would only go back if I got future knowledge in my dreams. Like PTSD style flashbacks (would not want to be a 30 year old man stuck in a toddler’s body)
