360, PS3, PS2, PSP, Wii, DS, PC, iPhone: Need For Speed Undercover

I've always loved the NFS series, ever since I had NFS:3 on my Windows98 PC sometime back in middle school. They never let me down; they always have buck-nasty cars, sweet maps, and now even the 'drive around to get to the next race feature' which really helps [me] get used to the mods I've done to my car.

I'm sure this one won't dissapoint. Heres a few PrntScrn's I took from the needforspeed website. At first glance, I thought the car in this first pic was a TSX, but I'm leaning towards new Lancer/Evo:



and when hovering over the cop cars, it says they are Nissan GT-R's, but it doesn't look like that to me, they kind of look like Rustangs

Nov 17th i recall from memory. I hope this is a great buy, cuz prostreet sucked!

most wanted was great but carbon eh.

The physics is cool if you check out the video of them doing donuts and crashing into things.

Yeah, it's been downhill since Most Wanted. Carbon was meh and i didn't even get pro street. I hope this one is good cause i've held off on MCLA after reading some of the reviews. I'm enjoying Pure so it's no biggy.

How's it going so far? Worth picking up? I'm enjoying Pure so far, like it better than MotorStorm.

I wont get be getting this. It looks like the same game they have been making since Unleashed. I loved the original NFS SE on the PC years ago and Hot Pursuit was good as well. Unleashed was ok but thats when it got kind of fake and Pro Street sucked. I wished they would make it like the original again when it looked realistic. You would drive on a realistic highway and you had a radar detector where the cops were and race from point A to B. I always drove the NSX. What a fun game that was.

I still haven't beat that guy either. Fawk. I gave up after countless trys. I figured my galardo maxed out wasnt enough, so I was gonna try the whole damn game over and build something else...

Im so damn excited for this game. I'm a NFS solder though, I have played and beat every need for speed since Hot P on the game cube. I thought carbon was a good game, but most wanted was most definitely my favorite. This game looks a lot like most wanted, so maybe that's why I'm so excited. Ive got it on pre-order and ill be giving a full review after a long day of gaming on the 17th for those on the fence.

I beat him with my Lancer, that last race is all about handling, there's one spot in the course where you can pass him and its all over from there Sell the Galardo and build a Lancer, that will do it.

ya so i found out that some of the bad graphics is due to people using a loader crack. Reloaded came out with a new crack and things are running smoother.

I wonder how many people dled it before it came out haha...

I'll give it a chance, but to be honest, I haven't really gone crazy over any of the NFS series since Underground came out. I loved both underground games.
