  • Abstract:  I’m not quite sure where to begin this review; the extremely ridiculous and laughable story line, the astounding frame rate that leave you wondering if there was a QA team at EA for this game, the graphics that look the same as (or worse than) NFS Most...

  • Abstract:  You, a largely unidentified Caucasian male, work for an investigative agency that needs a “deniable asset”: That’s essentially somebody that the agency can send deep undercover with no ties to the agency itself. If the asset – that’s you – is discovere...

  • Abstract:  The classic Need for Speed series from EA shifts into high gear with the release of the latest chapter, Need for Speed Undercover. Players are given a plethora of gaming options ranging from but not limited to the story mode such as beat the clock, ra...

  • Abstract:  Need for Speed games have always been strong in the visuals department and Undercover is no different. The opening sequence and overall presentation has a modern day Miami Vice feel to it. Bottom line, the results are outstanding and the graphics stand...

  • Abstract:  I can't quite put my finger on it, but there's a definite jarring sensation permeating the air in Tri-City. Something, somewhere, is not quite right. It's throwing the whole Need for Speed Undercover experience off-balance. On paper, everything looks s...

  • Abstract:  Need for Speed goes back to its roots with Undercover after last year’s ProStreet experiment failed pretty miserably. Undercover brings back the police chases, open world city, and arcade-style gameplay that made previous titles in the series, and in p...

  • Return to Most Wanted style of gameplay; gentle learning curve; online Cops and Robbers mode is great.
  • Unsteady frame rate; bland story; frequent load times; generally unpolished; lack of challenge.
  • If theres one thing that Need For Speed fans have been clamoring for, its a return to the race-from-the-cops gameplay of NFS: Most Wanted, arguably the high water mark of the franchise. Undercover delivers that, with plenty of overenthusiastic police...
