Abstract: Followers of the Need for Speed series will have been relatively unimpressed by the previous few outings of the game as they have not been nearly as good as Need for Speed: Most Wanted. Well rest assured that it this is not the case when it comes to Un...
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...
Good: Cop chases are still fun, Cool customization options, Ample game modes to choose from
Bad: A technical nightmare, God awful voice acting, Terrible story
Bottomline: But like I was saying earlier, there is a small amount of fun to be had in the game since you have a weird variety of events to chose from some of which are old like Sprint, Circuit etc. while some are brand new to this series like Cop Take-Out, Cost t...
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...
Good: Return to Most Wanted style of gameplay; gentle learning curve; online Cops and Robbers mode is great.
Bad: Unsteady frame rate; bland story; frequent load times; generally unpolished; lack of challenge.
Bottomline: 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...
Abstract: For the most part, the reaction to the last few Need for Speed games was the same: "Why arent they more like Need for Speed Most Wanted?" "Where are the cheesy cutscenes and the over-the-top cop chases?" It seems as if EA heard those cries, because fo...
Good: Plenty of cop chases, Instantly join races with press of a button, Isnt long before youre driving a cool car.
Bad: Lots of quirks and nagging gameplay issues, Emulates Most Wanted, but doesnt necessarily improve upon it, Story isnt much to get excited about, Frame rate isnt great.
Bottomline: Need for Speed returns to its roots with hokey cutscenes, wild cop chases, and solid racing action. ...
