Editorial Review
It's obvious that the developers of Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed put a lot of research into their creation. There's enough information about the legendary series of Porsche automobiles to satisfy any car aficionado, and this game contains tons of models--from late 1940s cars to recent 2000 models--from this marquee brand.

Despite concerns that the presence of a single car brand would result in a lack of variety among racing options, Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed does offer an impressive amount of diversity. Not all Porches are created alike, and the old 356 handles much differently than a newer 911. Thus, there is much potential in this all-Porsche offering.

Unfortunately, while this game has received strong critical acclaim in its PC incarnation, the PlayStation conversion contains some problems. For example, the track graphics are a bit muddy, and the cars appear fuzzier in this game. Worse still, the physics model for driving is way off. Surprisingly, older titles in the Need for Speed series look and play better than this. Unless you are a Porsche nut, steer clear of this one. --T. Byrl Baker

Pros:

  • Great collection of Porche facts and memorabilia
  • Models tons of Porches, from 1948 models to modern supercars
Cons:
  • Bland graphics, especially on the tracks
  • Edges of the tracks are ill defined

I was disappointed in the graphics and the gameplay was not the same as the computer version. The pc version is better.

This game is the worst game I have played and I will play! It does'nt worth 1c. Everything in it sucks (especially the cars).
Here is a list of the good things:
SORRY THERE ARE NO GOOD THINGS
Here is a list of the bad things:
1. Bad graphics
2. Bad tracks
3. Bad cars
4. Old cars
5. Your opponent are faster than you!
SO DO NOT I, REPEAT DO NOT BUY OR ORDER THIS GAME!

I should have known, when looking on the internet,getting information on porsche unleashed,and finding nothing really spectacular on this title,that it was going to be a let down!first of all the game plays,pretty good,and the amount of cars are not that bad either it was just the fact that the visuals dont stack up against any of the other titles(like NFS High Stakes)I found this purchase to be fun for a little while,but in the end "Porsche Unleashed"was just another game in my stack,that I show really no interest in!

I enjoy this Playstation game a lot. The skill level is fairly difficult unless you have the wheel to handle the turns. I recommend this for the Porsche nut that wants to drive a Porsche even though they can't afford it.
