what are you looking for? Every NFS ends up being a different mix of things, and that often dictates which ones people like versus others.

Personally, I really enjoy this one. Even though it's older. I like the tone, and while it's cheesy at times it is enjoyable. It took me a bit to figure out how to tune a car to my liking. But once I got that sorted I find the driving to be good.

But I like night driving, and long highways and the city styling. If you want offroading, other games do that.

If you want more difficult cops, or a stronger police presence then NFS Heat is better there. Overall there are things in Heat that are better than this one, but I still prefer this one. Heat looks a bit better, has a better variation in the map and more cars to choose from. I just never connected with the setting or anything else in that game even after about 50 hours.

But if you want something that isn't street racing, there are other racing games that may be good. It ultimately depends on what you are looking for.

Street racing, drifting, open world cruising, cops, what do you want most?

And after the end of game just drive cars (for graphics) and hear the sounds

Ok. IMO, I would play this for a bit and appreciate what is unique here. Play the story, see your car in the FMV scenes and if you like, you can stick around a bit for more challenges or MP. One thing that is cool here is that the FMV sequences often show off your in game car, in the FMV sequence. And it looks pretty good too.

Once you get bored, move on.

Having 2 cars work well here. I would pick a drift/gymkhana car, and a more tight race car. But you can use one for both, if you want.

Since you already own this, it would be a shame not to do the story and drift around town a bit. The group drift events are still somewhat unique. You can play with AI, or invite players and half the time real players still show up to join.

I don't see this game as being the type to really be about playing a ton of cars, just a few are going to be needed. You pick which ones and for what. But I'd say 3-4 cars are plenty. Honestly 1-2.

Do the story, have fun. Then decide if you are ready to move.

EDIT: I did the story twice, so I could grab videos of my car in the movies...

i finish many of nfs games like oryginal trylogy:underground,2,most wanted,carbon,prostreet,undercover,hot pursuit,the run,shift in 50%,nfs 2015.
worth playing is oryginal nfs trylogy: nfs underground,underground 2,most wanted 2005,carboon one of the best nfs games ever made.
don't expect from underground open world becouse mainly you choosing races from menu.

Underground 2 have this chill racing againts others across cities without worrying about cops. where you need make progress to unlock more regions,also drifts races have special tracks.
Most wanted 2005 with god carbon is where nfs series gets most of her popularity. illegal races, tuning cars, running from cops, destroying them etc. eliminating people from black list where to figh them you must become more ''wanted'' person by cops, story is also fine like typical story about becoming most wanted person in country, after that you have also challenges from main menu. Cops can give you hard times later ;)
Carbon oh next great game with story more about taking back your city where you litterally take control of certain parts of the region to then kick the ass of the leaders who control them. you also must defend your controlled regions also nfs adds in carbon races in canyons where you can even fall from them on most on corners :'D. on ps2 cops was more easy/harder becouse of power limits of console.

Prostreet- less ilegall racing more racing on racetracks with tuning cars, tuning cars earning money,buying new ones,destroying cars (yea prostreet have car destroying system) main objective is to become new king of the wheel but first you must win against: drag king,grip king,drift king,speed king to be able fight with king of the wheel. fun time but can be a little annoying with this entire destroying system.

nfs 2015 + nfs heat - next nfs worth playing. cops in nfs 2015 are i think most easiest one in nfs series becouse of their low numbers. nfs heat little come back to old times nfs where cops was deadly with car destroying mechanics they are even more deadly especially if you car can be one shoted by them :'D. in heat you unlocking new parts for cars driving illegal races in night with cops your progress is saving only when you come back to garage from nights races but remember if cops gets you, you will lose entire progress from this night.

From non nfs racing games best ones are Forza horizon series <3
more racing simulators: dirt series,project cars (but there is setting for totally newbies)
also burnout paradise remastered on steam fun racing game about destroying other oponents, crashing car for points etc. just fun.
