NFSMW was something that u cant repeat it again, carbon so boring because the drivers where not wanted from the police so we were free to drive as fast as we wanted where we wanted but there was no fun,no enjoy of R A C I N G and pushing it to the limit.So i hope that on NFS UNDERCOVER there will be more fun more furiosity to drive to win and to dominate on race.I hope there will be MITSUBISHI ECLIPSE the old one not the spider.That car is buty and atractive to drive.Try to make something that will be wanted by the drivers,players of NFS and dont remove nothing just add something new.This is accordet to all staf of NFS.All best.

if you are having trouble beating a takedown part of the game or beating someone or something,press the slow motion button and when you hit whoever you are trying to take down,they will TAKE MORE DAMAGE.

EA has killed a once promising and seemingly bountiful series. The flood of tuner culture crap since underground has taken a once respected and pure series into the depths of wasted opportunity for both the developers and fans. EA, here are sure tips to revive NFS. 1. No tuner cars, culture crap, or ghettoness. 2. Bring back exotics and real sports cars. 3. Bring back spike strips, super car Police, and Police helicopters. 4. Bring Back Point to point racing on Euro and scenic locales. 5. Bring back good music, the ghetto crap is getting old. 6. Bring back Day racing, Night Racing, Dusk, Rain, and Fog. 7. Spend a few years developing, and put some pride in the product. Real fans are owed a series encompassing a back to basics approach that will put some class, and pride back into the game. Since underground, this series has been a joke, and what is purely sad is that an awesome and respectable NFS game is possible. Due to greed and the constant caving to the profitable but washed out tuner culture, EA would rather develop and sell sub par tuner games than polish and perfect a gem that would put NFS back on the map. The technology and hardware is there, but the demise of this series ultimately can be placed on EA catering to a market that didn't play NFSIII or Highstakes.

Most Wanted has definitely been the best NFS for a long, long time.

I'm a HUGE fan of Most Wanted. Carbon was disappointing, Pro street was just awful!
From now on, I'm so voting with my Wallet!, Most Wanted I purchased. Carbon I also Paid for as I was that impressed with Most Wanted, and from there I've decided, Rather download Pro street before I buy - Best decision I've made as Pro street is not worth buying! So I've done the same with Undercover!
Overall, All the cars I've driven in Undercover feels just as awful on the road as the cars in Pro street. Wheels screeching, and car actually slows down rather quickly even if its a slight turn or curve in the road which kills the feel of driving the car - this is not how a car preforms on the road!
I liked the Idea of being able to drive to my races, Look on my map and drive to a place to tune up my car, or buy a car, or drive back to my garage. The police chases in Undercover feels sloppy in comparison to Most Wanted, and quite honestly, I would have expected Undercover's cars and the world to have a more Real World look - its a little too fake for my taste. Yes, the graphics are way better than Carbon, and to some degree better than Most Wanted, but common, 3 years along and this is what we get?
Most Wanted, in some aspects felt more realistic, you got a feel for the vehicles! As much as Carbon's graphics sucked, it had the same feel when you're driving the cars - just that the game was full of bugs, game would crash often, and no updates available for my Asian Pacific Edition... the actual graphics was pathetic, and game play was Too easy! But otherwise Most Wanted and Carbon had the same Feel on the road! Whereas Pro street & Undercover has the same sloppy feel on the road!
Won't waste money on Undercover - Will play it a little more, doubt I'll bother playing it to the end! Disappointed, but glad I'm voting with my wallet!
My 2c worth!

Overall the only thing that the fans of NFS wanted was Need For Speed: Most Wanted Remade and updated. Thus the Developers did exactly what the fans wanted ULTIMATE PROPS TO THEM!
You only know if YOU like the game after playing it, so take the reviews with caution. Ive read 7 diffrent reviews most big review sites have bashed this game brutally, but they have been compairing it to other games such as Burnout and Midnight Club, if you want those types of game play BUY THOSE, its like the big reviewers scrutinize every little thing in the game and never mention fun. FUN is the most important in a game!!! THE IGN reviewer said "There isnt even cross traffic", Who the F want cross traffic, Yea i love to wreck in a raging game !WTF! !!! All i wanted was Need For Speed Most Wanted Remade, Thats pretty much what i got. Add in online play with my frinds and im happy, $65.00 game NO, but $40.00 fun YES.
IN the end all reviews should be about PRICE vs FUN. TIME for ENTERTAINMENT.
