Game Description
Need for Speed: Nitro is all about risk and reward. If you want to really let it fly, you have to let it ride. Lurk behind opponents, drifting and dragging to build up boost, then use it to blow by at just the right the moment. Customize your choice of 30 licensed rides and watch your style show all over the track: when you're in the lead, the city walls will flash your colors. Try and rule the streets in single player, or travel the globe in a four-player Coop World Tour Campaign. Just don't stop watching that rear-view mirror. If your opponents don't catch you, the cops just might.
