Test Drive
(1987 on
DOS,
Amiga,
Atari ST...)
Description
This is the 2002 update to the long-running Test Drive series. The Test Drive games put you in the driver's seat of a fast real-life sports car, and let you drive around at reckless speeds through busy city streets and scenic mountainside highways.
This edition of Test Drive has some improvements over it's predecessor, Test Drive 6. This time around there is a story driven mode, called "The Underground." You take the role of Dennis Black, an independent street racer who improves his standing in the underground street racing world with the help of a mysterious benefactor.
There are 4 tracks: San Francisco, Tokyo, London, and Monaco. These tracks are considerably larger and more open than the previous games. There are now multiple races and routes through each track.

The best PS2 and Xbox street racing game by far
The Good
Fantastic dynamics, breathtaking graphics. It's just brilliant.
The Bad
Slow loading time on PS2
The Bottom Line
Forget Need for Speed, this game blows NFS out of the water. It makes NFS look like a quiet sunday drive down a country lane.
