I can't believe that you're really playing this underrated game and the map is huge! This was a great game to play and a pretty nice Midnight Club and NFS inspired type of racing game, despite the purpose of customization and in game currency being quite lackluster though. I own the game on PS2 since I ordered it off of Ebay a long time ago last year I believe. I manage beat career mode, but it wasn't easy since the enemy AI or Lidell's goons were driving me crazy in those acquire missions and they even tried to stop me at the final race too. I used the Saleen S7 for it because when I played the game when I was in the fifth grade, I used the Charger RT. 18:18-18:19 Pfft! Nice one Will! You sure showed that Hummer driver who's boss! XD

Definitely had some good memories playing this back in 2005...even if I was terrible at it haha. I think it did a great job capturing the Los Angeles vibe and I'm so impressed with the map size! The races are unforgiving yet rewarding too. I'm already starting to struggle with the races in the Downtown District but I'm gonna keep pushing through lol...wish me luck! 😅

The reflections on the cars was so unique. And the music….so many bangers that are still in my playlist till this day. It was just a nice vibe escaping from the rainy north of germany and go explore the sunny L.A.
