GREAT Racing, But No Music...
I think N.I.C.E. 2 (aka, 'Breakneck') is a very good game for it's time. I had thought of playing it again more than once lately, and wondered about buying something else 'old' on GOG here that I still have on disk or file: I am very pleased with this version. And to those who complained that the 'Expert' application of the game does not work, I don't like this either but it never did work since release: I have the original CD, and exception errors were already there; even included troubleshooting in the original readme detailed these, with no help but "update your graphic drivers". Lol. And as soon as I would click on 'Championship Game' in Expert it always jumped to highlight 'just for fun'; I think it is only for a multiplayer mode I've never set up or played, not what most would call 'Career Mode'. It has an Arcade Game option in Arcade that's more like a career mode; one can win and gain rank. However this may be, it IS the game being sold here; no different, or worse, or better, than the original when it was released. And, since Windows XP at least, when I first owned the game, there's no music. And there appear to be no music files on the orginal cd; I would also appreciate mainly THIS not to be true. It otherwise plays well: hard to win at normal difficulty, but looks great for it's time in 'generic directx' through dgvoodoo's included settings in the root folder. I'm enjoying playing this again, as I have over the years: I give it four stars, mainly because it never had a music soundtrack -- but also at least not a BAD soundtrack, which is WORSE! Lol... I'm playing this on a Win 10 i5, with a nvidia gt1050 display and joystick: If you liked the Need For Speed III era, you should like this -- it has replays, early damage modeling and environmental effects, and no glitches. I point my shortcut to the 'n2_ arc' program after setup in the launcher, and everything works FINE: Tweak a LITTLE, and ENJOY! :-)
