The "We Have NFS Underground At Home!" Knock-off - Overspeed

Oh dear, dear Overspeed ... Even if I have fond and nostalgic memories of this game from my teenage years (may not sense this during my review), I still have to be honest and as objective as possible when I make reviews. Young Zs, Overspeed is what we would call back then "a cash grab" - lighter version of a scam. The USA knows it as "L.A Street Racing", the rest of the world knows it as "Overspeed - High Performance Street Racing". Despite the names, it's the same game - a bottom of the bargain bin budget title, imo made to fool loving grandparents who just wanted to make their favorite grandchild happy for Christmas/B-day. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Contents: 0:00 Intro 1:06 Bottom of the Bargain bin 1:38 Public announcement This is MY opinion 1:58 Story/Premise 2:31 Storytelling limitations 3:33 Like n Subscribe CTA 3:46 Gameplay 4:03 Overspeed Car brands explained 4:47 Car handling is a mixed bag 5:10 Neighborhoods explained 5:38 The game wants you to be fair! 5:55 When and how to race 6:38 Bets and what are you racing for? 7:22 Bets scary plot twist 7:43 Car specs paradox 8:03 Car upgrades explained 8:45 Only one type of race 9:37 Dangerous unfun AI 11:10 Don't rebel against the AI 11:30 Car Customization is laughable 12:35 Design 13:21 Buggy animations 13:48 Camera options 14:07 One original thing about Overspeed 14:34 First time playing Overspeed 14:48 Illegal Street Racing Simulator identity 15:18 Gamepad limitations 16:07 Graphics 16:21 Audio and Soundtrack 16:56 Final Thoughts/Final Score --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Social media links: X (Twitter) : x.com/SaltyKal -------------------------------- Support the channel: Buy Me a Coffee :) buymeacoffee.com/saltykal Patreon:   / saltykalreviews
