Need For Speed: Hot Pursuit 2 (PCSX2) | Trying out a pre-release Build! (March 6, 2002 Prototype)

I'm pretty sure people have already done videos on this (and shown off more features than I have), but I only heard about this pre-release build yesterday!

Overall, it was a fun experience, and you can see the foundations of what would turn out to be one of the best arcade racers of all time (in my opinion).

Features different from the final build that I didn't touch on much/at all in the video:
• Some of the cars have different colours available. The NFS version of the BMW M5 has a totally different (and better in my opinion) design.
• Police will use cardinal directions in their radio chatter (e.g. "he's going southwest, past the lighthouse)
• The busted screens are different
• The in-race UI is different
• The "You're the Cop" mode hadn't been implemented
• The unlockable video in the final game (the one from winning all the events) is the main intro for this build
• There is a slo-mo mode, which you can activate by pressing DOWN+O

I'll probably play around with this build a bit more and see what else it has to offer.
