For 2002, these graphics were damn good. I came back here expecting the graphics to be not so hot as I remembered when I was a kid, but no... they’re really good.
It's running on an emulator on PC so the resolution is better and the game is cleaned up a bit. If you played this on a PS2 on a regular TV it would look rough.
@CRTSte I still have an SD CRT tv and PS2 console, but the graphics look much better on the emulator and you can also apply a 60fps patch. The PS2 version isn't even running at 480i, so even on a CRT the picture is somewhat fuzzy. At a higher resolution (PCSX2 emu), car models in particular look much better, as a lot of detail in native PS2 version is lost at lower resolution. But I dont recommend playing this game on some big TV or at very high resolution, becasue at some point you can start seeing more and more imperfections. On my 42 inch panasonic X10 1024x768 plasma the game looks spectacular (wayyyyy better than native PS2 version). On my GT60 1080p plasma the game still look good but I can definitely see more imperfections. As for 1440p and 4K displays I recommend playing at 1080p with 1:1 scaling. The black bars will be quite large, however, the image size should be as large as an average CRT. Even on my 1080p plasma, I sometimes play PS2 games at 720p 1:1 because I find the PS2's assets hold up best at that resolution.
Best racing game I've ever played. Everything about it is so satisfying and perfectly executed. The controls, the handling of the cars, the AI, the police pursuits, the tracks, the action replays, the cars, just perfect.
I think AI drives bad for a good reason. If they are too good at driving players might not able to catch them and game will be almost impossible to beat (unless you start going in reverse)
In my opinion, the PS2 version is the best Need for Speed game ever released, simply because pursuits never seem to be the same as the previous event, and is the first with gender selection.
I grew up with the xbox version and while it was great, the ps2 version is miles ahead actually. The physics in particular is so much better in the ps2 version.
@@stas_fri3124 For me Need For Speed needs the tuning because tuning stands for the need for more speed, it will be wild if after NFS 2021 Ea Games make Hot Pursuit 4 with the options of tuning cars and cop cars with performance and functional body kits. For example swaping in a 5.2 Modular V8 on a Crown Vic with a front guard.
Ahh the early 2000s… you were the best time for everything, games, movies, cartoons, music, i was super small then, but gameplays such as this always help in reminding me of a better, simpler time.
This game best describes my whole entire childhood, I always love to play this when I come home from school on my PS2 and I just enjoyed it so much. It’s even fun playing as the cop as well. I feel nostalgia hitting me so hard.
I spent countless hours on this game. I remember playing this on my ps2 while sitting on the bottom bunk of my bunk bed lol. Sometimes I would even break out the steering wheel I had for the ps2 I was like 9 or 10 y/o at the time so it felt like I was actually a cop😂. Sometimes you just have to appreciate how simple games were, cause this nfs never got old to me and it was a very simple game but I loved it.
Ah, the good old days when I would come home to my PS2 after finishing all my homework and just playing this game and call of duty 2 nonstop. Good days :(
This made me want to play this again. Also I think cop cars can use a nitro/boost, I think it's L3 or R3, will help if you left behind and took too long on one of the racer.
When people ask me what's the best NFS IMO I always go for this but only on PS2. Where else can you immediately go drive a Viper over 200km/h while police drop bombs and missiles at you?
Yeah so cops have quotas they have to meet. Where I'm from quote day is on Thursday. That's when you see an excessive amount of cops on the road more than usual. Well at least that's my understanding of it.
You’re the cop missions no matter which difficulty you place it is easy to get gold. I tried it in both the ps and some of the non ps versions. I believe if you can control the car you can catch the racers with a lot of ease.
I wish the police cars from the other versions were in the ps2 version. TS50, Coupe GTS, Viper, 911, and Diablo. The Diablo is more egregious since it’s in the intro, but is not playable. That must’ve confused some players back in the day
I had it on my PC and it did not have a dedicated graphic card so it used to lag a bit but I cherished every memory of it. It was my second NFS after NFS 2 SE
What region of NTSC U/C Need For Speed Hot Pursuit 2 are you using? SLUS 20362 or SLUS 20362GH? Mine is SLUS 20362GH and from 0:06-0:21, the screen keeps on hanging and hanging. The screen keeps on stopping. Is there any way to stop the hanging on the Hot Pursuit menu or World Challenge menu?
Yea, the PS2 version is what i grew up with. It was weird to see the PC version for the first time, thinking to myself, "This is not what I remembered". I really wish the PS2 version got a port to PC.
how did you manage to make such great graphics in this game? Do you play through an emulator on your computer or? Please explain, thank you in advance.
Why the fuck does the Crown Vic and M5 sound like a 1.6 liter Peugeot Diesel in this goddamn game? Whoever was responsible for that needs to be sucker punched. Same for applying V8 sounds to the Lambos and Viper.

This is still my favourite racing game after all these years. Thanks for making a video on it man. I'd love more if you had the time.
Best racing game I've ever played. Everything about it is so satisfying and perfectly executed. The controls, the handling of the cars, the AI, the police pursuits, the tracks, the action replays, the cars, just perfect.
My all-time fav NFS GAME. Why? No upgrades, no nitro, no tuning, no bullshit. Only manufacter car, your skill against AI. Music was awesome too.
You get the point 🤝

Your videos brings to me some good nostalgia

they only give you the option of male and female. Absolutely disgusting.
@@beastyboogersftw yeah, where is the "Apache Attack Chopper"?
@@stas_fri3124 the fact that toaster isn't an option makes this game unplayable.
One joke.

Playing as the Cop in this Need For Speed Game feels so damn awesome!!
yeah, punish those who break your rules
playing as you in this need for speed games feel so damn awesome!!
Now this was NEED FOR SPEED!
this was Need for Speed & not Need for Street
This was the last need for speed that was based on the original roots of need for speed!

9 years ago, i used to play this game in my ps2 but now i forgot all bou't it, thank u man for givu=ing me insane nostalgia
I forgot about that smokey area with the woods on fire. Excellent touch
Ah, the good old days when I would come home to my PS2 after finishing all my homework and just playing this game and call of duty 2 nonstop. Good days :(
Man I spent hours playing this game and than watching the replays, that mclaren , beautiful!
Is graphics look clean
You made some hard work of the last bust, helped him a couple times lol
That crown vic has best wheels on all games that featured in
Played back in 2008 amazing game still one of my favorites
The good old times with NFSHP2 ;)
The murcielago police car was also the car with the highest top speed in the game (when you used the turbo boost)
This made me want to play this again. Also I think cop cars can use a nitro/boost, I think it's L3 or R3, will help if you left behind and took too long on one of the racer.
Bothered me this guy never used it lol.
I used to love the viper on this game, the way it sounded, drove and everything
The only thing i dislike about the PS2 version is the lack of cop cars compared to PC.
In my opinion the best version ...love this more than the PC one...amazing mate
The mode I always play before I close my PS2. Memories...
Haha I never ever could catch one of the races.
You can use Nitro with Police cars btw.
I didnt know that for like a year until i found out lol
Played PC version only. In comparison PS2 version's graphics looks incredible
Looks like a Need for Speed: Underground.
we’re only getting older 💔
This game has one of the most beautiful looking tracks!
When people ask me what's the best NFS IMO I always go for this but only on PS2.

Gta sa with mods
Just kidding, but you got a point
This is simply the best NFS game out there.
How many millinials enjoying this memorable game❤

@@haseenabadshah5381 said is the more correct
Thank you very much, I feel so nostalgic when I watch this. BTW, I also liked playing as a cop 😅
O melhor da franquia!! Ps2 ❤🎮
Man as a kid I could’ve sworn there were more cop cars than 5 ahaha
You’re the cop missions no matter which difficulty you place it is easy to get gold. I tried it in both the ps and some of the non ps versions. I believe if you can control the car you can catch the racers with a lot of ease.

La verdad esque el juego entra por los ojos desde el principio los efectos graficos todo brilla a un gran. Nivel y el aspecto grafico es bueno
Id be interested in seeing the cockpit view of the last few missions in this sexy vm. Looks awesome
My entire childhood, masterpiece

NFS most wanted & Hot pursuit 2
And that's it
one of the 1st games i got for my ps2, playing it again while being fully aware of its rubberband AI makes my mouth foam
It had the best RB AI ever, I actually enjoyed it
I had it on my PC and it did not have a dedicated graphic card so it used to lag a bit but I cherished every memory of it. It was my second NFS after NFS 2 SE
Mantap juga nih game buat nambah keseruan

Don't forget you have a nitrous boost when you play as the cops. It's L3 or R3 I think.
I know it's subjective, but i prefer the PS2 version of HP2 rather than the PC version
Yea, the PS2 version is what i grew up with.
It was weird to see the PC version for the first time, thinking to myself, "This is not what I remembered".
I really wish the PS2 version got a port to PC.
Everyone does. It was one of those rare games where the console version looked better than PC, most because the PC port dev did a crap job.
They need to bring this back in modern nfs games.
Every police car have boost by pressing R3 button
In case you don't know it
Miss the old days 💔☹️
These were the days.
Just a question btw, how did you fix the Busted cam sequences on Emulator?
From my experience, they only work properly on software mode.
Press F9 (change to Software Mode) before the busted cutscene bro.
can someone upload the wav files of the PS2 Police sirens? I cant find them anywhere!
I used to love this game
I think I had as much fun in You're the Cop mode as I did in racing mode.
5:35 sorry 46, Chief walked in the room and saw this, you’re suspended and will be sent to a drug test
wow you are a pro cop! clean catch!

I didn't know that sergeant 6 was voiced by Brent Miller when I played this game 😳
Nitro (R3) 😎😎 Epic bro 💪
Was this game being played with the 60 fps pnach hack?
yep.
How did you get the Busted cutscene to render properly?
I love this game so much
Wow, I am really surprised how well the graphics hold up!
Crown vick got a lambo engine?
I used to ignore racers and cross the speed over 400 kmph by using nitros of the cop car
For content is far better the PC/game cube version, but the PS2 is better made
the last good game of the classic nfs era.
how did you manage to make such great graphics in this game? Do you play through an emulator on your computer or? Please explain, thank you in advance.
Obvious he its using emulator, you can see in the description.
Is there any need for speed games out there that are like this I miss this game so much
Hot Pursuit 2010 and Rivals.
the police cars in this game have nitro, right? long time ago no game
18 YEARS!!!
Why the fuck does the Crown Vic and M5 sound like a 1.6 liter Peugeot Diesel in this goddamn game? Whoever was responsible for that needs to be sucker punched. Same for applying V8 sounds to the Lambos and Viper.

This is the undisputed best Need for Speed ever made. I will ignore all replies to this comment.
Lindo juego graficamente exelente diseño grafico
Damn in order to bust racers , you have to literally stop them for few seconds , they should be wrecked rather than be stopped
Amusingly enough, you wreck them in all other versions of HP2.
They should remake the game completely
Nostalgic game...
You should have used the boost! Press in L3
R3
the greatest NFS of all time then they fucked up the remaster lmao
The remaster its from Hot Pursuit 2010, not from the game from 2002.
Is there a cheat for psx2 to unlock everything and can u list all settings I'm getting glitches
omg I love the police car's 🚔🚓 I wish the law in America made like these beautiful cars 😫😩
Why were the GameCube and PS2 versions different. Does anyone know
PS2 version was made by Black Box Studios, while the others versions was made by EA Seattle.

But still fun to play.
