What’d you think?: This game opens with a tutorial. You’re in a cramped parking garage with a list of objectives, ranging from driving fast and braking, to slaloming around some pillars. It was hard and I decided to skip it after crashing. The games story mode opens with this same tutorial, under the justification that you, an experienced race car driver turned cop are going undercover to infiltrate a gang looking for a driver. I crashed again and failed before the game started. Luckily, I had played this game in my youth, and remember that the main game itself is also rather difficult, but was ahead of its time as a free-roaming GTA3+ predecessor. There were also a handful of non-story driving games and modes available that were fine I guess.
