Actually - "spending a lot of time cruising the city before getting on the actual race." is not so bad. You just have to figure out how to use GPS to eliminate needless cruising. The actual race really sucks. The same "kindergarten driving" we used to drive in previus versions of NFS. No matter how many accidents you've made just keep mantain your speed and you'll be first. Graphics are pretty good thou. All of the races except drag race are ridiculously simple and in the same time you could spend whole night just to win one of the drag races. It seems a little bit inconsistent with whole idea of this game. In drag race you rely mostly on your luck instead of skill. I mean you should avoid bumping into incoming cars to avoid become totaled (after that race is over). When you use oxygen to boost speed (the only chance to win the drag race) the steering wheel seems to be unresponsive and it means you 100% dead because of numerous obstacles you should avoid during this time. So you have either lose the race because of crash or lose it because of insufficient speed. In the same time all others races as simple as "the french fries", you can complete them in five min with no competition at all, just keep it floored. Another fact - It's absolutely no matter for your car, in terms of handling, what speed it got when you trying to make a sharp turn. It could be 20 miles per hour or 150 if you don't use brakes you will bump into some wall anyway. Something wrong with AI.

Better Graphics

Than PlayStation 2, Nice price, Very customizied controller, But wait! you must have a high quality Video Card, I have MSI 9700 256 MB and no use, looks like the game graphics is bad not video card.

Any way better than PlayStation 2.

I thought it'd just be more of the first one, but it's very different. You have added race tracks, and small dirt tracks. You also have SUV races, but only visible when driving an SUV.
The physics are more realistic than the first one, but the overall graphics are a small notch down. It's well worth playing if you like racing games. I do wish there was a little bit more added realism.

Excitement Rev's up initially but dosent last long..

This is a very cool game. Beginning with the fact that the graphics and the city in the background look so real, and the races that you make with other drivers in the middle of the highway are very fun too. I spent like 5 hours playing this game until I figured I was a human being and I had to sleep, but I couldn't stop playing it. The missions are very cool and you can win money to leave the car they way you want. I strongly recommend this game to all the car games lovers, you won't regret of buying this game at all.

PS: if you have a fast Internet connection, play it online, because it's cool playing with other real players, just like you.

One of the best...

This game rocks. I was kind of skeptical at first about buying it but after playing it, I can't get enough!

The best Need for Speed so far....by a country mile

I now have both the original and this second instalment and while the first one is a great game, it pales in comparison to this. The main thing which has been vastly improved is the freedom to explore an entire city while not on the racing circuit.

Visit body shops, graphic shops, car speciality shops and upgrade your car. Go search for all types of racing, from drift to U.R.L and hook up with various sponsors as you build up your reputation. With more cars to choose from (including more European and American manufacturers) this game is almost limitless in it's playability when you take into account the amount of modifications you can do to your car.

While I found the non-Underground Need for Speeds to be entertaining for a short while, they never really lasted beyond a few weeks. EA have hit the nail right on the head with these. I just hope that NFS: Most Wanted will go down a similar route.
