Need For Speed... Underground Style

This is one of the best racing games of all time. It's way better than the other NFS games, Project Gothem Racing games, and Midnight Club games. I agree with Zaken that this game needs more cars but you can't drive in the day. That's why they call the game undergroung. I do respect you review though.

Fast and Fun

It came time to buy a new simulation racing game and I opted for this as opposed to PGR2 (no particular reason mind you). What I found, is that this game is fast, customizable and gives a ton of variety for any player. There are over 100 goals to be met and since you start out with a stock variety of cars, it seems a rather distance goal of getting to the next levels. Instead, if you are anything like me, you will find yourself playing more and more just so you can unlock new performance parts or body upgrades. Unlocking new vinyls and multicoloring them adds an element of fun and expression almost putting you in movies such as "The Fast And The Furious". I have only had it for a few days and can't stop playing it. The great element, is that theoretically after you complete all the goals (garnering magazine covers and high reputation in the process) you can begin the whole thing over again with a new stock car and have a different experiance as you learn to race with new rules. This is highly reccomended, the lack of a five star rating is only because of a few minor complaints about the realism of the crashes (which are beautiful...but no body damage). The soundtrack is fun and pronounced, but not obnoxious.

Best NFS Game Ever! (so far)

So far, NFSUG is probably one of the best NFS games yet. This is definately a must-have for any NFS fan. Here's why:

First, the graphics are amazing (eventhough if you crash into a wall your car doesn't get smashed up). The cars are put into almost every detail you can think of, that a real car would have. The streets and such are okay in graphics (they could be better)

Next, the sound is is mediocre. They seem to play the same songs over and over again, though. It would be better if you could customize the soundtrack.

Thirdly, the gameplay for "Go Underground" is really great. As you progress on through the game, you unlock new parts to tune up your car. Another thing is, you go up the ranking ladder when you win your races. There are different types of races, which is really great; drag racing, drift, circuit, time trial, lap knockout, tournaments, and sprints. For time trials, if you beat the clock, a person named T.J. (or Samantha) installs a "Unique Performance or Visual upgrade" on your car (you get to choose, of course). The game gets harder and harder as you progress through it, which I like.

Lastly, the multiplayer is also a great feature to the game. The only race that you don't get to do that is in the "Go Underground" mode is the time trial. Overall, NFSUG is a must-have for any NFS fan like myself. And, even if you don't like NFS, NFSUG is at LEAST a must-try.
