Testdrive4 = NFS2SE NOT!

It's very impressive. Everything in the game has been tweaked over NFS2. It still needs some audio tweaking (3dfx version i mean), but I like it (Yes, NFS1 is still better in some aspects). TD4 has major problems that may never be addressed rms >-- >Matt & Audrey Lewis

One problem remains, the almost totally non-functional replay system because there's no fast-forward or rewind that I could find. Who is going to watch four laps just to see that one accident that happened on the 4th lap? I also liked the original NFS's "highlights replay" (not to mention cops and non-circuit tracks). But otherwise I agree it is much better than NFS2 (which you may remember I gave a pretty bad review to on this ng). Joe

Okay, there are some significant differences. I was only poking fun because the physics model/control of TD4 seems identical to NFS2. I felt pretty burned by purchasing NFS2 and will likewise probably not buy TD4 or NFS2SE. This was not a full-fledged objective critique or comparison. No, just a sarcastic observation. ;-) -- Matt & Audrey Lewis

The physics model/control in NFS2SE/NFS is much better than in TD4. TD4 is just horrible.
