This game is awesome. From tuning to displaying to buying cars this
game has got it! Like other reviews, the CUP opponents are sometimes difficult. But they're only like that because it's challenging. I love racing games, and this one tops em' all. I've got the Lamborghini Mercielago, Mercielago R-GT, Gallardo, and Diablo Roadster. I'm aiming for the last Lamborghini, the Diablo GTR. The cars look good and I keep on trying to win championships. The N2O Boosts help me out. You have DS friends who have this game,try the multiplayer mode, I've heard the multiplayer games are a lot of fun.

Good, But...

This game was great. The graphics were great and the gameplay is fun and addicting. However, Need For Speed Underground 2 is coming to the USA April 19. The graphics are better, there are better customizing options and also more tracks. I have the Japanese version and it is longer, harder and much better. However if you really like racing games (like me), then you might want to get both. Asphalt Urban GT is like a midnight club, and Need For Speed Underground 2 is similar to the console versions released this year. Also, Mario Kart comes out in November, but that is not like a real racing game. I will get that too. If you only want one REAL racing game, than I suggest waiting for Underground. Neither play multiplayer with one card but Mario Kart will, just with limited courses and other options.

Great Game!

This game is the first game that I got for my NDS. Overall, the game is a little difficult, but after an hour or so, the game becomes much easier. Unlike the other people, I found the controls very easy to get used to. Also, some of the things that you have to do in this game are pretty tough, but not unbeatable. I also loved the variety and tunability for the cars. If you are not a super hard core racing game fan, I think you would love this game also.

pretty good

this game for me was extremely easy at the beginning but got harder as the cars got faster. The graphics rule and the cars are cool. Cop chase is extremely fun. It is cool how u can upgrade your cars and make then turn sharper, go faster, change color, and change the body style of it. These features kick booty. One thing i hate is when u hit cars from the back u slow down alot and they shoot forward, and when u hit a car that is sitting still the car doesnt flip away it just sits there like a wall and stop and u have to reverse and drive away. This causes the other racers to fly past u as u just sit there. But luckily sometimes they wreck also and u can go past them. the game is 5/5 for fun but 4/5 overall because of hard difficulty and bad wrecks.

Difficult to control

The graphics in this game are fine... pretty advanced for a handheld. The cars look great, the tracks are interesting. I don't love the controls though, I find it difficult to really get the car moving around corners... the placement of the controls makes it difficult to move back and forth between the brakes & gas, and some of the camera movement is disorienting, confusing, and makes it difficult to tell when obsticles are coming up. I'm constantly nailing other cars, and have difficulty moving up through the ranks. I normally LOVE racing games, and I'm normally pretty good at them. This game is difficult, though... Not fun difficult. Irritating difficult.

I would not buy this game again, I'm sure there will be much better racing games available in the near future.
