Need For Speed games today just don't have that same "wow" effect that these older games had. I can watch this intro in 2020 and it still gives me the same chills it did 18 years ago.
My parents couldn’t afford Underground so they got me this. Best racing game I ever played. I’ll never forget that 10 Lap McLaren F1 race near the end.
@@Smokie_Muffin well kids nowadays are more familiar with these kind of video games. Back in the days i used to play games like Super Mario or Bubble Bubble and wasnt familiar with these kind of graphics . I remember when i got my Nintendo Gamecube i had this game ,Sonic adventure DX , Vexx , mario kart and soul calibur 2 . I lost my shit when i saw these kind of graphics hahaha. Wish i could turn back time to the good old days !!
AXL163 Hahahaha a nightmare. Honestly I think the dropping spike strips are the real nightmare. MW2005 I think is the most well rounded. Didn’t have as much customization as Underground, the cops didn’t have bombs to drop on you, but it had both sides. I think that’s the big reason why people love it. Also I did like the cheesy Live action story line. Don’t get me wrong though. I played the shit out HP2, Underground, and MW2005. I even played HP2010 a decent amount.
Seeing this made me extremely sad. It is like seeing myself 20+ years later looking at 8 years old me through the other side of the screen, screaming helplessly to my youger self of something, though I don't know what. Maybe to warn me to stop trying... because it won't ever make sense.
This was probably to hit with nostalgia those who played NFS III (Hot Pursuit) and NFS IV HT in PS1 in the 90's. The Diablo COP was a nightmare in NFS IV. Watching this in 2023 is another level of Nostalgia 😢
@@morandavid575 I was born 2003, I too played this game on GameCube 24/7. If I still remember I seen it at a GameStop with my dad or mom and I loved the cover so much, I convinced them to buy it. I still love this game and wish I play it soon
@@morandavid575 nope i was born 02 we were too poor for new gen console so my first was a hand me down gamecube , me and my brother spent hours on this game
My favorite lines from this game: "31 County" "I copy, 31" "Turning on a speeder that just blew by me!" "21 County, in pursuit! Vehicle is a yellow Lamborghini!" "21 County, this guy is gonna kill somebody! I am discontinuing pursuit" "21 County, I've got him again! In pursuit. Vehicle is a yellow Lamborghini" "Requesting roadblock" "31, the roadblock is in place. It's by the marina." "21 County, the speeder just blew right through the roadblock!"

I am discontinuing pursuit" *"You win!*
"46 County, in pursuit, vehicle is a green Lotus Elise" "Copy, 46" "Requesting additional units" (in fact the useless moron without inflicting damage or trying to PIT suspect) "46, it's, 41, I'll be secondary" "Requesting the chopper" "County on patrol, the chopper is near" "He is not stopping, permisson to set a spike strip" "County on the patrol, spike strip is deployed" "46 country, I've stopped the Lotus Elise"
What do you expect the Diablo is rwd yes it could drift and it was the last v12 lambo to be in rwd before its replacement the murcielago into switch to awd
You can give the newer NFS games better graphics, but you can't give them soul like this game had. Being born in 1990, the Diablo is the car that turned me into a car enthusiast. Seeing it along with the Murcielago for the first time was just... wow.
Taw Seef I was born in 1994, and this game was my childhood on PS2. Favorite game of all time. Amazing into also. That diablo cop gave me goosebumps every time I saw it lol
Childhood... If I could, I'd buy a 2001 yellow Murcielago lp580 exactly like this one. I was 6, and this was my first video game ever, and it made me fall in love with the Murci, and with cars in general.
0:52 still gives me goosebumps every time I see it. That moment when you knew you were about to get f'ed because there was a police Lamborghini after you... Ah, man, the good childhood memories!
We will never get games like this, so innocent, so pure, back when developers were pushing both hardware and software while also innovating new gameplay features or improving on what they had. This intro is so simple, just a red and yellow sports car chasing each other with a cop chase and licensed music over it, but so well done
U could just go to the menu screen and wait.. It would take u back to the intro then when u don't play the game and stay there waiting in the menu 🙆🏻♂️...
JohnParkour in 2002, this was light years ahead of it's time compared to other games.. I remember when I was around 4-5 playing this back in 04-05 when I had it..
Its funny how modern NFS games have better graphics during gameplay than this game's intro. Its also funny how with all the technology that EA has these days, they cant create another NFS game that was as fun as Hot Pursuit 2..

***** Haha never "grow up" man. : ) Always keep that tiny bit of your child and cultivate that aspect of your personality, it's important to be able to relax whatever it is you enjoy doing despite your age. I myself play some strategical games still to be honest, even though i've started playing less and less.
This is what you call an intro man, this is something that attracts you to a game, makes you want to do the same moves in the game as you see in the trailer or intro, the rush the chase, man these vehicles used to feel like speed demons. The music sinks in and makes you feel more alive than ever. I miss this.
Goosebumps every time looking at: 1) That Diablo Interceptor drifts around the corner. While the other two cars take the grippy way, the bad-ass officer eats the corner with rear wheels! 2) Closing scene when camera moving around the jumping cars. The law and the outlaws on equal machines. Bad-ass cars, bad-ass music, bad-ass scene!
Cop Lambos (Diablo and Reventón) are always good at entrances: Diablo - Drifting around the corner as he enters into the scene to chase those two cars all by himself. Reventón - Starting off from the distance about to zoom-through as one of the strongest SCPD units came to arrive in heroic way as possible, as he blazes through everything in which that is badass asf as the Diablo's entrance.
@@JeiVron294 For real. HP10s trailer still gives me chills when the Reventón just zooms by the cops and ends the whole thing in a matter of 10 seconds.
The audacity of this trailer for those years is out of this world. The ideea, the cars used, the music, how it was all shot and put together makes it even today one of the greatest racing trailers. Kudos to the people involved.
Jann Chavez I first played NFS Porsche Unleashed and Hot Pursuit 2. But with most repeat with Underground era (UG1-2 ,MW,Carbon,Prostreet and Undercover) You should try with ProStreet. The most underrated and forgetten NFS.
อนิรุตน์ กิจสวัสดิ์ ProStreet is not underrated, I hear everyone talk about it. Go to the NFS subreddit or Discord and mention prostreet, everyone loves that game.
So nostalgic literally brings a tear to my eyes. I used to play this in elementary school when I stayed at my grandparents in the summer cause they had a ps2. I love everything about this game
Márk Rudolf not what I’m saying at all. This industry has greatly expanded and heavily diversified in a very short time. Meaning there a ton of heavily opinionated people who play games then it was during the old days.
Leks I feel you growing up really sucks I wish EA would make a remaster version of this game and add more cars to it like the McLaren P1, the Pagani Zonda R, or even the Bugatti Veyron Supersport
Ah, those were the days. Best Need for Speed game hands down, right before Underground turned away from everything NFS was about in order to jump on the Fast and Furious hype train. The series was never the same after this. Damn shame. I miss the good racing games.
yeah i love/hate Underground. I love that it's a great quality game but i hate how it creates another fanbase (mostly little kids) who had no idea what real NFS was. Before NFS 2015 came out, lots of them were bitching for a real NFS like Underground when the real NFS deals with supercars, cops and beautiful locations.
***** Exactly how I felt. I won't deny that I did enjoy my playthrough of Underground, but there was just no comparing it to the previous NFS titles. Taking the action away from exotic, picturesque locations and putting it in the confines of a generic city felt wrong. Buying your everyday cars and tricking them out with over the top visual customization was never my thing either. I prefer cars who mesmerize you by default, without adding extra visual flare to them because they are already MADE to capture your attention. And, of course, racing through the streets, dodging traffic and not drawing a drop of attention from the police felt wrong as well.
Damn, after all those years this still looks great and hypes you up. Perfect combination of footage and music! I know the game would feel boring and repetitive now, but the memories and the music are still well remembered.
@@kidz4p509 The Bottom line is that games like NFS Hot Pursuit 2 and NFS MW 2005 all have one thing in common. They are absolute masterpieces. The newer NFS games are piles of dog shit and are a complete disgrace the good name of Need for Speed. Btw, I am both a fan of Hot Pursuit 2 and MW 2005. I played both games when I was young, and if I could go back to the time when these games were popular, I would.
Razor Callahan I was 2 when this game first came out and I remember playing this game from 5 til like 10 every day. And even now every once in a while.
Such nostalgia seeing this again 😔 I can’t believe it’s been 20 years already I was just 7 years old when this was out the old NFS games were too good.
You had a good childhood if you recognize this
You are (expletive) right!
No i am from underground
I have the game
You have an excellent childhood if you playes nfs mw
I was six at the moment and played shit out of it, I cherish this game to this day, one of my favourites
“These graphics look so real” said everyone back in early 2000’s.
Haha 😂😂😂
They still hold quite well though. :D
I used to think they were real, until I got a bit wiser, but man, this looks very realistic still.
Gerard honestly they are way ahead of its time, and before my time and yes I’m a kid and yes I know it came out in 2002

same
The audacity of this trailer for those years is out of this world. The ideea, the cars used, the music, how it was all shot and put together makes it even today one of the greatest racing trailers. Kudos to the people involved.
You gotta love how Hot Action Cop changed the lyrics of the song to fit the game
@johan wendell - original music Why I can't get it on iTunes is beyond me.
They didn't. The songs are covers.
@@Elektr0hazard I was living a lie.
They changed the lyrics
@@Elektr0hazardrespectfully, you are wrong
NFS Heat: im the best NFS
Hot Pursuit 2: hold my Lamborghini
Nfs heat ain't even good as NFS Carbon
dude NFS Most Wanted 2005 : Hold my BMW M3 GTR
@@อนิรุตน์กิจสวัสดิ์ You've probably never played the pre-underground era.
Jann Chavez I first played NFS Porsche Unleashed and Hot Pursuit 2. But with most repeat with Underground era (UG1-2 ,MW,Carbon,Prostreet and Undercover) You should try with ProStreet. The most underrated and forgetten NFS.
อนิรุตน์ กิจสวัสดิ์ ProStreet is not underrated, I hear everyone talk about it. Go to the NFS subreddit or Discord and mention prostreet, everyone loves that game.
This intro NEVER gets old! I when i play this game now i get the same adrenaline rush from this intro as i got when i first played this!
RodriguezRacer 456 My head hurts after each time I watch this. It never gets old.
+RodriguezRacer 456 Playing it on PS2, or something else?
Issa Beganovic PS2
RodriguezRacer 456 Just checking if you're in "the rejects" stables. The game was rushed faster than "Sonic in Bonneville" for Xbox, GC and PC.
This nostalgy is just unbelievable. Happy birthday 20yo as of today, to the game that marked my childhood. Thank you EA for such a masterpiece.
So nostalgic literally brings a tear to my eyes. I used to play this in elementary school when I stayed at my grandparents in the summer cause they had a ps2. I love everything about this game
Same way I feel
I Want to cry when I see this my childhood was beautiful .
Those old days when “Need For Speed” was a great brand.... sooo sad :(
Funny cause everyone slammed this game that went from NFS High Stakes. This just tells you that "gamers" know nothing when they criticize games today.
Back when EA wasn’t pure evil.
@@projectfreedom9510 so you are that ABSOLUTE GAMER :D ok........
Márk Rudolf not what I’m saying at all. This industry has greatly expanded and heavily diversified in a very short time. Meaning there a ton of heavily opinionated people who play games then it was during the old days.
@@projectfreedom9510 I don't remember anyone slamming this game.
0:30 this escaping part is so good i loved it
“I got him again! In pursuit, vehicle is a silver Mercedes CLK GTR!”
I copy 28. County local patrols in pursuit, vehicle is a silver Mercedes CLK GTR.
This is getting too dangerous, I am ending this pursuit in the interest of public safety.
I dont think people will recognise this to be honest. Clk gtr was best car in that game.
I hit 200 mph in the clk gtr
I get goosebumps when im watching this, i miss old times
Leks I feel you growing up really sucks I wish EA would make a remaster version of this game and add more cars to it like the McLaren P1, the Pagani Zonda R, or even the Bugatti Veyron Supersport
@@jasonjones8038 i was like 10 years old when that was my first game in my pc haha
Back in the days where rock and rap were the shit... i miss those days
FreakingTweety Same man, same. I was lucky to be born in 2000 to experience this epic game when I was 5
Dude the choppers dropping bombs from the air the spike strips this game was fucking awesome
Ah, those were the days. Best Need for Speed game hands down, right before Underground turned away from everything NFS was about in order to jump on the Fast and Furious hype train. The series was never the same after this. Damn shame. I miss the good racing games.

NFS HP 2010 got many things right but they should have left out burnout paradise out of it to give it more of an nfs feeling
+A. Yalama Yup, it did indeed get many things right and was overall a very enjoyable game. But the driving mechanics felt alien in a NFS landscape.
yeah i love/hate Underground. I love that it's a great quality game but i hate how it creates another fanbase (mostly little kids) who had no idea what real NFS was. Before NFS 2015 came out, lots of them were bitching for a real NFS like Underground when the real NFS deals with supercars, cops and beautiful locations.
***** Exactly how I felt. I won't deny that I did enjoy my playthrough of Underground, but there was just no comparing it to the previous NFS titles. Taking the action away from exotic, picturesque locations and putting it in the confines of a generic city felt wrong. Buying your everyday cars and tricking them out with over the top visual customization was never my thing either. I prefer cars who mesmerize you by default, without adding extra visual flare to them because they are already MADE to capture your attention. And, of course, racing through the streets, dodging traffic and not drawing a drop of attention from the police felt wrong as well.
Veloziraptor111 that's why Most Wanted was better than Underground, at least in my opinion.
That Lambo scene just epic
holy shit this does not get old my god
coming here on new years day at 1 am DJ just played this in a club and my childhood flew by
"EA...chalenge everything" sounded so much better then what they have now
What do they have now?
siloPIRATE "EA...it's in the game"
EA Sports. It's in the game
EA Sports! BIG! Big!
@The God Emperor Himself this joke is getting old.
@The God Emperor Himself nice one. EA Games, MONETISE everything!
Damn, after all those years this still looks great and hypes you up. Perfect combination of footage and music!
I know the game would feel boring and repetitive now, but the memories and the music are still well remembered.
That Diablo scene...just amazing *-*
Still get goosebumps everytime i watch this..... times flies
God that lambo flashing the lights is so iconic to me! I love this game soooooo much!
Legend has it, their still racing and trying to lose that one cop..........
In reality, that's kind of imposible considering the fact that they'd all eventually stop for gas.. I'm jussayin! XD
It's a joke. I know cars need gas. It could just be a hamster on a wheel inside the hood for all we know.....

If Criterion make a Hot Pursuit 2, they could resurrect this chase :P
0:52, best scene in nfs history?
Videogame history*
Definitively!!!!💪🚗🔥🚓🚓🚓🚓🚓🚓🚠
Chills broo
The new hot pursuit intro is nearly as good as this one though
that was the most "oh shit" moment of my childhood
This video randomly crossed my mind today, I was so happy to find it on youtube. The memories just flow back😭
ALI ARE YOU A NFS FAN TOO? OMG OMG OMG
Ali being an NFS fan is definitely not in my 2024 bingo card
0:52 Favorite Part As A Kid, Its So Epic :D
Xactly! :D
Too bad there was never a Diablo cop car :(

atleast for the PC version
i remember turning my ps2 on and off just to watch the intro again
This was written on 10/6/19 I want to know if anybody watches this still

+Razor Callahan Except for NFSMW fans.
@@kidz4p509 The Bottom line is that games like NFS Hot Pursuit 2 and NFS MW 2005 all have one thing in common. They are absolute masterpieces. The newer NFS games are piles of dog shit and are a complete disgrace the good name of Need for Speed. Btw, I am both a fan of Hot Pursuit 2 and MW 2005. I played both games when I was young, and if I could go back to the time when these games were popular, I would.
@@NobleGamer0117 anyway you said the newer games are piece of dog shit please go back in time
Razor Callahan I was 2 when this game first came out and I remember playing this game from 5 til like 10 every day. And even now every once in a while.

Nowhere NEAR as good as the PS2 version.
Such nostalgia seeing this again 😔 I can’t believe it’s been 20 years already I was just 7 years old when this was out the old NFS games were too good.
Same here. I appreciate my dad
I am so grateful that I got to experience this masterpiece of a game (imo) this intro still gets me hyped to this day!

До сих пор люблю эту игру 😍
Когда ее играю, вспоминаю детство счастливое
А ещё и до сих пор в неё играю. Играю за копа и закидываю поддержкой гонщиков.
Я сейчас в неё играю. 😅 И она так же прекрасна.

Damn it.We need remastered this game.Pleaseeeee EA.
They might do it no joke but am not to sure but there work on a remaster for hot pursuit number one
They will just increase brightness, add shadows to posts and will put it out as remastered.
Childhood memories ;)
