Is it me or do i hear a street car? Yeah, you know what i'm talkin' about. NFSU2 truely leaves other games in the dust. Come on, I read other reviews and a guy killing his grandma? That's just sick! Now that's out, i want to discuss things about the game. ONE: who hates a game with street racing? TWO: The music is perfect but they should had Metallica's Fuel.That song fits perfect. THREE: the cars, are... PERFECT!!! the cars can be upgraded to "Kickin' *** and taken' names" cars. Take that car for example, do a little this and that, and you got a car that can kill, murder and maul other cars. I just hope NFSU 3 has motorcycles in it. Ya' hear me EA? You know what I said. One final thing to talk abut is the city, races and Brooke Burke. The city is BIG and i mean BIG!!!! The races are sweet. Drag forever. Brooke Burke is HOTT! Dang! Just buy the game before i go crazy. I'm known to go crazy. Overall Rating: 10,000 out of 10. I recommend it.

Fun Game....Useless Story Line

Overall, NFSU2 is a fun game. This game packs plenty of customization, open ended game play, decent soundtrack, and good graphics. Oh yeah, there is aslo some racing, which there are various types of racing. Also there is a range of difficulty; some races are easy to win, while others may take a few attempts to win. This could have easily been a five star game, but for some unknown reason, NFSU2 also includes several cut scenes that features a comic book style story line that does nothing to enhance the game in anyway at all. In fact, I thought the story line took away from the overall enjoyment of the game. The good news about the story line is that you can skip it with a press of a button. I would suggest using the button very strongly, unless you have a dissapointment fetish, skip it, because there is no payoff for sitting through it. I learned that the hard way. One other flaw of the game, there is a ton of product placement, but unlike the story line, it doesn't really have an imact on the gameplay.

its pimped ooo-ut!!

Now I am not trying to go against everyone here and just say this game is useless, because its not. But the truth is ever since the 3DO version of need for speed came out and was great, the need for speed titles have been up and down, some good and some a waste of time. Its come a long way since 1995. But hasn't exactly reached perfection or a high standard of a solid quality title as yet. The last underground was ok for an arcade racer, and this is quite similar. The graphics have improved and there is millions of customising possibilities for your cars looks and so on, but this does not make up for the gameplay which is at the best of times half decent. The handling is not solid or very reliable and your car feels like its lacking what the real tuned up version would be like. It really does'nt feel like you are driving a racing tuned car as it always just floats around on the road swaying and smashing into scenery and cars around all corners so easily. The other bad thing is the sense of speed which is a real let down. The fact that you have free roaming in a city is very good, but does the poor handling mean free roaming is any fun as much as the game. NO!. Its like a chore you don't like after half way through the game, ''theres a race on the other side of town, get down there or miss out'' is what you hear on your messages inside your ride, then you have to drive all the way to find a race with your GPS on to rinse everyone out. Sound fun? yes! is it fun? no!. This could have been a really good game if they spent more time on it, but it just lacks a lot of things. If you have recently played Burnout 3 I would expect you to be let down like me too. Or even since this is on the Xbox, Project gotham 2 is just superior in every way possible and you would be in complete depression if you went on to this as I thought it would compliment Project gotham 2 as i completed it and wanted another racer, now I have just gone back to PGR2. EA has fast become a money hungry company that robs 1000's and 1000's every year by just adding an extra couple of useless features that aren't as fun as they make out to be to a game that really is quite shallow already, and what do you know, we fall for it. From today I have had it with EA for maybe like ten years, until Need for speed underground 9 is out and has more of a chance in being a decent game for the money I spend on it. Its easy to see how people like this game, They are more than likely to be newer gamers or just casual gamers. But for people like me, it disturbs me this goes on. But anyways, if you have it and like it or tried it and want it, go for it its half decent. But if you are like me and want your moneys worth, I suggest getting the untouchable Project gotham 2 which is half price now, the excellent Burnout 3, the great Toca race driver 2 or wait for Forza racing out very soon like me :-) which is a bit like Gran turismo but exclusive for the Xbox which will hopefully be a classic too, With top graphics and car physics It lets you tune up your cars(over 200) properly, exterior decorating as much as possible, engine tweaking as much as possible and a REAL racing game altogether with a good career mode unlike Need for speed underground 2. But anyways, for now I hope I helped you to make good use of your money so you can make a wise decision, unlike I did. Laters!

Good Clean Fun

If you are a classic XBox owner, this game is a must have. From the drift races to the drag races to the sprints and circuits, this game (other than graphics) is much better than any Need For Speed game since. Pick it up here on Amazon, you can get it cheap. Hours and hours of fun!!

Bought this for my son, he loves it.

The Gamestop store in Boston was giving this away for free, and now I know why. This NFS game is a complete letdown. Why, you ask? Here's why:

1. Graphics are third-rate You can go crash into a wall, but your car doesnt show as much as a scratch. So much for believable racing.

2. Multi-player option is a big letdown. For namesake you can play multiplayer, but wait till you play to see how far the game goes. Crashes everytime I play it.

3. Tracks: the music tracks are horrible. Nothing novel.

If you really want a good experience, I would highly recommend Burnout Revenge. Way better than this nonsense.

Late.

this game kinda blows. There must be like six songs that play throughout the entire game and none of them are good. Gameplay is kinda weak, but I'm not really into that whole fast and furious crap. I didn't keep this one for long.
