The Need for Speed series is back, and is better than ever!
As you keep winning races your wheelman level increases, and rarely after winning a certain race you get pink slips to a new car to be put into your garage. The cops are back in full swing in Need for Speed Undercover, and are as brutal as ever. As your heat level increases and goes up the cops will try tactics such as ramming you off the road and setting up road blocks. The police also have some sharp new vehicles such as the new 2008 Challenger and the new Corvette.
The games graphics engine is great, the cars and the city itself is stunning to look at, the only problem I had with it is that some places are so dark you can't even see where you are going. As for the controls in the game, the control layout is well put together and is easy to learn and master. The controls also include this new feature called the heroic driver which is to where you can make your car do cool things such as a 360 turn and a burnout as well. The new soundtrack/music featured in the game is great and really fits the game. The music is a mix of everything like rock, techno, and more.
OVERALL 9.5/10: Need for Speed Undercover is a great addition to the series. The return of the cops is great, and the best part of the game. The graphics are a joy to look at, the soundtrack is perfect for the game and gets you pumped lol. All in all, Undercover is a excellent new addition to any racing fan, or any newcomer alike.
