Debug Menu#

Unused Videos#
Stage 1 Intro Watch on YouTube
This was supposed to play after you escape San Francisco but it doesn't for some reason, maybe the developers just forgot to add it or it was cut because it's too short, since there is only one race and time trial in this stage.
Unused Music#
Judge from the filename, MX_FE_TEMP, this was likely used as placeholder menu music during development. It's actually a snippet from "Infinite White" from Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen OST. What appears to be an alternate ending theme for the helicopter chase in Chicago.

Porsche Cayenne TurboHidden Demo on PC#
To play a hidden demo on PC version, you have to set a command -NfsGame.IsDemo 1 in the game executable file and make sure to set the date as before November 2011. However, this demo is a bit buggy and unfinished unlike the console version demo. Watch on YouTube
Oddities#
The Organizer's Identity#
If you take the camera out of bounds during Chinatown restaurant cutscene in the elevator, you can see a man floating in the air. This man is Calvin Garret. 
Additional Police Porsche Cayenne Turbo Variant(?)#
Within the Red Mountain Pass race on Stage 4, a police Porsche Cayenne can be seen pursuing the player from the start, but the model used is the civilian variant of the vehicle with the police livery and cop AI applied. It does not blare any siren sounds that are commonly heard from other police cars, a normal car horn sound will be produced instead. Whatever form of error to cause this discrepancy is unknown. 
Hidden "Suicidal !!!" Achievement#
If you pass through falling rocks in the Avalanche Race, you will get a hidden "Suicidal !!!" achievement. However, it is impossible to do this by using Tier 4 cars.
Secret Shortcut in Stage 10#
If you go through the barrier before entering the subway tunnels, you will skip the cutscene where Marcus Blackwell shoots at you (at 2:57). Watch on YouTube
