    Hi

    I've found this. Those are execuables to play Need For Speed III - Hot Pursuit and Need For Speed IV - High Stakes on newer PC and OS, even in x64 systems (those games are from 1998 and 1999 respectly). Sadly you need to figure out how to get the CD to extract some necessary files to play. You can buy the game from Amazon, Ebay, or you can put a patch in the eye and......... go fishing :grin

    Maybe you need some tweaking to get the best gameplay, for me I didn't do anything after install everything. Also there's a good force feedback response. I've played with a Logitech Driving Force GT wheel, a bit surprising for me even from a 90's game.

    For NFS IV the author ask for some donations in order to keep the development.

    PD: In the website there are some links to download a pre-installed game with the modern patch. These games are not free, so it's illegal to download that without EA permission. If the admins of xsimulator doesn't allow that, feel free to delete this post.

    There's no patch (like the ones for nfs 3 and 4) for NFS Porsche Unleashed. There are a lot of patches like nocd, graphics fix, widescreen, and it's a pain install it, for me I suffered random crashed when I play it. But like in the previous games, there's a good force feedback response.
