It's incredible how they managed to fit this game on a ps2 disc. It has all the stuff and even the cockpit view with all the details, few racing games had this on the ps2. It's like the PC and the 360 version but with a lower graphics, anyways... It's amazing!

I had this game for PS2 and it's definitely in my Top10 for that console. Huuuge map, tons of different cars, it felt like you had so much freedom... you could even have 1v1 races against other people via internet where you could define the start- and finish-line on the map. Sometimes I had races that were like 50km long, from one side of the island the the other. The fact that I could race online on my PS2 blew my mind at the time. Very fond memories of this game.

This game I look back on fondly (I had it on PS2) and although I thought it had a number of shortcomings, it had some brilliant features and above all a lovely atmosphere. The atmosphere was such a nice place to be.

damn the nostalgia. Played this game everyday until it wore out and stopped working. lasted 3-4 years

It still impresses me tho. Actually I'm playing TDU2 on my Ps3 and I'm impressed more than the previous game, this game deserved more fame

I had this game on PS2 and then got it for my Xbox 360 once I got it for Christmas in 2007. Such an impressive game for the time and this and the second one are two of my favorite racing games of all time. It's amazing how well the PS2 graphics have held up. I think this is one of the best looking PS2 games.

I'm so glad I still have a PS2 and this game.

Test Drive Unlimited, a game that technologically was incredibly advanced for its time and somehow was magically ported flawlessly to the PS2 and nearly flawlessly to the PSP (i remember getting this on the PSP and PC and i was in complete awe on what the developers were capable of doing with the PSP's hardware)

I have been playing this game for a couple good years and managed to finish it and had all the cars in the game. Very good memories now I have a Xbox one S and I play Forza Horizon games

Nostalgia from PC version, i wanted to continue playing the PSP version in my tablet but its hard to play in emulator without problems.

2:35 The OST on this race scene slaps so hard and idk whether it's unreleased track for TDU1 ps2/psp 3:41 btw, the OST playing on the headphone is Neon Jungle.

This version might be better than the 360 and PC versions now since the servers went down. Getting champion rank in those games is a serious grind, however since this version seems to reward you for exploration and stuff like drifts and drafting, along with the racer point system, it looks more single player friendly.
