Need for speed SE improved on an already impressive game and made the first steps at becoming the well known franchise it is today.

Ahh the memories.

I first saw this game running in a computer shop on a 3DO and thought it looked awesome.

Then later, my regular PC magazine featured a demo on the cover CD. The presentation blew me away and I played it repeatedly. I loved the videos for the cars, the demo featured the videos for the Dodge Viper and I'll never forget the music to this day.

I bought the game pretty quickly once it came out and loved it.

Yeah, this game introduced me to the dodge viper. As a European the dodge is not often seen in the wild. (at least not back then. These days there are a lot of Ram imports, but the roads aren't made for huge american cars here) I loved the look of the viper!
