NFS 4 is in my oppinion the technically best 32bit racing game. No bugs, and the track is continuously loaded from CD while audio is streamed, too. Every other racing game fades compared to that. Only Daytona CCE (CE) can par up with the GFX, as it is incredibly smooth.
Oh yeah, I have to say that now that I played The King of The Spirits 2 (60Hz fullspeed), this is THE Saturn racing game whoose graphics come closest to NFS4 on PSX.
The textures are really good, there is also an autumn setting (spring, summer, autumn, winter plus morning, noon and night, plus fine weather, rain and fog) which looks very nice and reminds me of Hometown from NFS3 or Kindiak Park from NFS4.
There is gouraud shading all over, either used as lightning, for depth cuing, or fog. The replay feature and the available cameras are great! Controls are much better than in part 1. The only downside is the music, kinda unnerving and though there are a lot of weather, time-of-day, season and driving direction settings, I would like to have more tracks available.
I like racing games so detail rich like KOTS2 or STC.
