A really addicting and fun game, but the music gets old quickly, the AI is unfair at times, and certain game mods suck.
Sound/Audio:
The tracks are nice when you're racing. But when you're in the garage mode or whatever, I want to kill lil jon. I really do. The sound effects are great.
Graphics:
I was impressed by the graphics. Sure, it wasn't the best game graphics wise, but it was great compared to the last game.
Gameplay:
Highly addicting! The only thing I have to really complain about are random bumps on some of the guard rail that slam my car to a damn-near sudden halt. Little map glitches like that frustrate the crap out of me.
Playing single player is fun until the end of the game where the AI becomes total bull crap. I am so sick of traffic being only in my way and the opponents know exactly how to dodge them perfectly. The catch-up gets to be ridiculous at times.
Overall a great game but it definitely has its frustrating moments!!
