Feeling annoyed that I used nitrous because you're pretty much forced to use it constantly in Extreme Difficulty? Well, I made a revision of this run called Need for Speed: The Run: The Anime. Click on the link below to check it out:

⬆️That run is so much better! Minimal nitrous usage this time around.⬆️

Honestly I really like The Run's idea. It's basically a Cannon Ball Run, what's not to like about that? It fits the style of the overall NFS series in general... excluding those dumb quick time events and the weird "enemy encounters".

[Alex-ogoe]

Beautiful graphics, excitement competition, spectacular long distance, I respect developers and love this game.

[andreschusty]

one of the best nfs ... it's a shame that it's underestimated, but the idea of crossing the country with those endless freeways with gigantic mountains in the background ... and all kinds of landscapes, with those graphics .., I would have liked a "real" scale (of the whole journey), as much as possible without loading screens, (or at least only in a service station to recharge gasoline etc) but the idea of the game itself is excellent, (beyond its physical or graphics, or gameplay etc), a pity that a second title has not come out

[niallleonard]

This was literally one of my favourite games of my childhood

[OneTeeGlory]

I just wanna point out this one thing. In San Francisco, one of the cops says he’s chasing an “orange Zonda.” So people started this race with supercars. Jack did not hit 200 until he was on the East Coast. Those guys deserve to lose lmao 😂😂

[easportsforever]

I miss this game. It had what all the other NFS games lack - a proper and interesting setting. Exploring real life locations is so much more interesting than some repetitive made-up setting.

[princevinny]

i love this game idk why people hate it so much ?

[thatdude]

In Las Vegas i came in a GTR, switched to a 911 GT3 RS 4.0, once it crashed at the end of the chapter, i chose it again


That's how the run works

[ClearanceCollector]

My favorite in the series. Everything is good, music, story, voice, etc. Gotta love the music. Definitely feel the intensity there.

[bsciencearts]

The sound in this game was next level for ea not alone everything else. One of the best nfs ever put together. Not due for a remake, perhaps a run sequel on the next gen consoles.

[RiteshAcharya]

Not ashamed to say the first scene scared me as a kid when I played it😂

[Thatcardude]

The thing that really stood for me about this game was the sound track and also the realistic graphic of those cities.

[BarrelsPolesandJack]

This game has some truly GORGEOUS scenery!

[racingmhf]

1:54 this scene is part of my childhood, oh man it feels so nostalgic

[deputywreckmeister]

This game its part of my childhood... I no longer have it so... It's good to watch this gameplay

[dragonclaw]

I dunno about y'all, but I like it better when there's no music, just pure engine sounds and whatnot

[victorhugotl]

Deadass I’m glad my uncle got this game on ps3 and I’m still playing it till this day these games will always be a memory to never forget.

[CrispyMuffin]

when i first played it in 2012, it was so damn hard for me to complete the game that it took months to finish it. me and my brother utterly LOVED the run. that shot of adrenaline we got at the final few miles was nuts, and we screamed our lungs out when we won the final race xD

[UnknownGamer-cwuo]

They should’ve made a second game! They set it up so perfectly at the end!!
