This game you will be playing for a long time.
Gameplay is also very well done. It plays and drives the perfect looseness that you would want and not too arcady like other tuner games *cough* dub edition *cough*. Unlike the first Underground, Its free roaming which is a nice feature. What else would you want to do when you have just freshly tricked out a ride but go test it out on the streets? Some people dislike the free-roaming feature but i love it. It makes the game last longer and that is a good thing. You drive to each of your destinations and find various hidden shops throughought the map. You also unlock new areas that can be explored.
The sounds in this game are unreal. I mean when you get a souped up GTO with all the trimmings that thing sounds like a Mack truck its awesome. The NOS sounds good and has a nice blurring effect.
Once you get this game im sure that you will put as many hours into it as i have. It takes about 40 hours to beat if you do a lot of cruising around like i do. But what this game has is AWESOME replayability. You go through this game using cars and you can always just keep restarting the career mode and use different cars. Each car is so different that it makes it feel like a whole new game. I actually just picked this back up and im playing it again. Ive putten a lot of hours that are well worth the time. I recommend if you dont have this game and you are a car fanatic or just someone who loves racing games get this.
