Need For Speed Underground 2

Post by Funkmasterr »

Anyone else playing it? I am having a lot of fun with it. I like the changes they have made from the first one to this one.

Like how you can wander around the city and have to find the different mod shops and stuff, instead of just being menu based like the first one.

The only downside I found was the online play- First off the UI for online play is terrible. But two days after the game came out I tried an online game, and I got kicked from the race, because the people had by the looks of their cars, been playing non stop since it was released.

I like it, but it seems that the cars are harder to control than in NFSU 1. Not harder, but more touchy.. Dunno, can't explain it well.

The free roaming part of it, rocks. A lot of the road layouts don't. You can look at the map and be right on something you're trying to reach, and look around to see it's nowhere in sight.

The graphics are great, the soundtrack is good as usual. Love the Doors song remix. The new customizing is pretty cool also.

Overall worth the download.. err, purchase.

Yeah, the steering is a bit touchy. And I do have the same complaint about the map, it really is irritating, especially when you are being timed to go meet someone for a magazine cover or whatnot and find out you took a wrong loop off the 40 lane highway.
