Hurray! Another DS game that is good but not great. This is a pretty fun game for those people who are racing fans and this is the perfect game for the DS because it is so easy to pick up and to put down. I say easy to pick up because you can do one race and then finish, and easy to put down because the career mode will most definitely make you want to throw your DS at the wall sometimes. Graphics wise this is a very good-looking DS game. The cars look smooth and there is not too much pop-up to worry about. The main thing here though that you do not get in a lot of handheld games is an actually sense of speed, which this game does actually have. That really did surprise me especially during the drag races. This game has all the modes of the console and GBA versions except one. That would be the most fun mode in the entire game Drift racing. The one thing that surprised me the most was that this mode was available in the Gameboy Advance version of the game but is for some reason missing in the superior Nintendo DS game. Other than that though this game is a pretty fun game. There is the EA Trax missing so really all that there is, is the sound of the cars and things of that sort, which do not sound bad. However makes me less likely to actually play the game with the sound on then just having the sound off and just playing the game. That is the only real complaint that I had about this game. So Need For Speed Underground 2 for the Nintendo DS, is the best racing game on the console as of right now. This game looks very good and even though the touch screen is rarely used the controls are nice. This is a must have for any racer fan with the system that does not feel like waiting for Mario Kart DS. My only complaint is that this is the most expensive game on the DS right now so, its up to you to decide.
