EA, why hasn't there been an underground 3 yet? NFS Underground and Underground 2 are the best and probably most succesful NFS games ever created so why stop at number 2? To be fair, after Underground 2 the NFS games after that went downhill. The storylines were pretty good but the game itself was rubbish and now EA are making track games! Thats not what need for speed is about! Need for speed is about being able to modify your car to the max and then go out on the streets free roaming and then doing every race there is (drag, drift, sprint, circuit and street x) After Underground 2 they got rid of being able to have neon and all the other fantastic mods you could put on your car and replaced it with one shop that sold engine parts, body kits and paint! I mean what's the point in that! It was much better when there were 4 or 5 shops that you could go and find in a section of the map and then mod your car to the max! Also why have they started putting supercars into the games. You can't mod supercars! Why can't we just have the toyota supras and the evos and the cars that can actually be proparly moded! And why can't we have all the proper mods back like neon and sound systems! There are millions of people asking the same question. Why hasn't the been a need for speed underground 3 yet? If your one of those people please post your thoughts.
The NFS series started taking a nosedive with the Underground series. The first Underground is probably one of the most repetitive, underwhelming and tasteless racing games I've ever played.
Also, storylines? I never understood why a racing game should have a storyline. Let alone if the story is cringeworthy cheese.
I loved underground 2, most wanted might has well have been called underground 3 though, and carbon underground 4 respectively with how little the game changed from that point forward.
@punkpunker however NFS Most Wanted is the indirect sequel to NFS Underground 2 and Carbon being the direct sequel to Most Wanted they are linked but nothing like underground customization wise

a nose dive? need for speed underground 1 and 2 sold more than any other need for speed what are you talking about those games are great and who really cars about a story line as long as you have fun now i realize everyone has different opinions but dont trash it because you didnt like it a lot of people did
Apparently Criterion is making another NFS title, and that it is said to be looking into the past, like they did with Hot Pursuit. Underground racing, high stakes racing, drags and drifting would definitely be most welcome, so a Underground 3 or another game with thos elements would be most welcome. As for what is currently available and similar, I recommend Juiced 2 and Midnight Club: LA.

I agree, if they released an Underground 3 that would be so cool, the NFS games seem a little all over these days, one year its track racing on circuits then its back to streets then circuits, I gave up at Most Wanted, actually I lie, I gave Pro Street a chance but found that too awful to bare and since never bothered to sit and play another NFS game through. I think EA should leave the track racing to games like Gran Turismo & Forza Motorsport and instead aim their focuses on the underground street racing that we all love and want back.

i had pro street as well and that pretty much swore me off the rest of the new NFS games. i only bought hot pursiut witch is alright not as good at the original hot pursuit or hot pursuit 2 but its alright. also i completely agree with you ,let GT and Forza do the track stuff ,next thing you know midnight club will start makeing track games. xd NFS should go back to their roots ,what got them big what got them fans. its either they are complete geniuses by takeing away underground then bringing it back and it sells like crazy or they are idiots :/.

really i had no clue thanks for the hope lol and i have LA and had Juiced 2 both good games i personally just dont like the handling in both :P
Doubt it'll happen. The whole underground import street racing scene isn't as mainstream as it was back when the likes of Fast & Furious made it extremely popular. One of the reason why the Underground games sold so well, they were extremely marketable at the time. But the games market has changed and like others have stated, Most Wanted and Carbon was essentially sequel without the Underground name tacked on. Midnight Club: LA is a great substitute and honestly, the better series.
I thought there was a crackdown on street racing games and that the only reason that the last NFS was released was because cops were playable characters. I'm not sure if that's why there was no Midnightclub 5 or there was some issue at one of Rockstar's studios.
I do really miss totally decking out a virtual honda civic... i bought midnight club LA like 3 months ago, but was disappointed when i realized there were even less cars than there was on midnight club 3 DUB edition for the ps2....

yes there was a "crackdown" some kids though this would be cool to do in real life did it and got themselfs hurt or killed and need for speed was promoteing street racing :/
Uh, the reason we haven't got Underground 3 is because EA blackbox(technically EA Canada) don't make games or even remotely exist anymore and as much as I would like to see it, I don't see it being very good to be quite honest. Don't get me wrong, Underground 2 as well as some others like MW, HP and HS were good, but I think it should be left alone, they already created 2 really good games for the short trilogy but what else can they really add? But U2 was a really fantastic game i have to admit, it would just be so weird having the game coming back with a storyline that no one cares about anymore and with no cops(which is what the nfs series is focusing on right now), the game would drag and adding cops would make the NFSU series something else. :(
Underground 3 is one of my most wanted (probably my most wanted) racing games. I have Mario Kart 7 for my party type atmosphere and Shift (could use a better sim, but its good) for my sim type racer, but I really want Underground 3 for my free-roaming, car pimping, street racing stuff and F-Zero for the wacky, fast paced, intense course racing.

If you like underground 2 so much then play it again, still feel the need Underground 3 ? Then theres something you're not willing to admit to yourself.
