    The PC version is smoother and has texture smoothing, but with 1 MB of video memory, the PS version has dynamic lighting, when driving under bridges and in tunnels, the car interior is also shaded.

    • @MathewsNunes
      @MathewsNunes 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +9

      That's true, but that's because this is being rendered in software rendering. Pc version is able to have dynamic lighting/shading when rendering using Glide (old API used in 3Dfx's Voodoo GPUs).

    é incrível a diferente entre os 30fps (ou menos) contra os 60fps no PC, e o mais incrível que joguei muito need for Speed II no PS1 e nunca percebi o como o jogo roda truncado, alias sempre jogamos jogos com pouco fps e nunca reclamamos o importante era a diversão

      A gente era acostumado com os jogos rodando lentos, as vezes até em 15fps, como nas batalhas dos Final Fantasy. A imagem com pouca definição dos CRTs disfarçavam um pouco.
      O primeiro jogo que rodei em 60FPS foi o Half Life 1, o jogo chegava a me dar náuseas.

    PC easily wins but it is surprising how close the PS1 version is. It just runs at a lower resolution and framerate (between 15 to 30) with no anti-aliasing. I was expecting more wobbly textures that the PS1 is known for. Especially when you compare other 3d Accelerated PC games at the time to the PS1 version.

    There is no contest, the PC version (Special Edition) is the strongest. It has the strongest graphics, a bonus track and 6 bonus cars.
    The standard PC version is underwhelming, but it is only with having 11 opponents in a race that it sticks out.
    The PS1 version is just average and my least favourite NFS on PSX - frame rate issues, dated graphics, and worse than the first game by a long stretch.
    Overall, I think NFS II is the weakest of the first six entries as it has no cops, it is very arcadey with weird physics and lacks much that the first game had. I still really like it though!
