Need for Speed: Underground 2 real life environments

Note : layout of this entry is still a work in progress

Note 2 : this page might take some time to load fully

If you're a millenial or early gen Z, you might remember these legendary games that were NFSU or NFSU2 (the 2nd one was even more popular in my experience, and in fact I never played to the 1st one (except the demo)).

I took some night pics around my city (Toulouse) that definitely remind the feeling of these games (at least the 2nd one) and its urban motorways lit with sodium lamps, car parks with high lighting and dark vegetation.

Order of the pics : the more they have the vibe (to me), the higher they are

Car park of the Arènes subway station

Bridge of the A61 motorway above metropolitan road 2 in Toulouse (exit 18)

Northbound exit of A61's exit 18

Southbound entrance of A61's exit 18


End of the A64 motorway to the inner ring road.

Raynal rail yard's northern entrance.

Burger King of Labège (close suburb of Toulouse)
This one was mandatory, considering the amount of BK product placement in NFSU2 xD

Westbound Yves Brunaud Avenue, just before the subway's bridge.

Pech-David

Western ring road (A620 motorway) between exits 23 (Rangueil) and 24 (Empalot).

Saint-Exupéry Avenue
A
A68 motorway exit 1, east side Toulouse

Zoom over the entrance ramp

Access to the Colomiers train station, near Toulouse

Bordeaux-bound A62 motorway, just before the interchange with the A620 motorway (Toulouse's western ring road) and the Toulouse-North's toll booth.

Same place but zoomed

Latécoère Avenue, Ramonville and Toulouse (the cities' limit being weird, it's technically in both) ; previously known as the A623 motorway and now as the metropolitan road 113a.

Cépière Roundabout

Reynerie Avenue

Blagnac airport's car park number 6

Note that I might add more pics on this entry in a very-near future :D

My goal here was to do pics that feel like the exact NFSU2's ambience, not suggesting a base for new maps (but I'm okay to do that if someone decides to remake a NFSU2-like game xD)
