Is it still worth playing?

Police pursuits sit at the center of racing exotic sports cars in this 1998 racing game for the PlayStation and Windows. The locations are around North America, with varied settings and climates. The player can race against one opponent, including in split screen, or against seven others in circuits, knockouts or tournaments, which unlock bonus vehicles and a bonus track. In the Hot Pursuit mode the player picks a standard sports car and races a single opponent on a track scattered with police. The PC version has a role reversal in which the player takes a police version of a sports car and has to stop all six racers before they finish. A siren in the mirror still makes a race tense.
