Who are those people rating this game with 4 or 5/10? Are they ok?
Outdated. PS1 age. Yes, this was a little dissapointment to me in the beggining... Framerate's ok, only sometimes it falls down badly... But who cares? I've heard that Dirt, ProStreet and other games have the same isues on lastgen consoles.
SFX
Great! Car engines, crashes, police communications... Love it!
Soundtrack
Have already heard that it's the best soundtrack over all NFS series. Agree with that.
Gameplay
Highly addictive. It's a mix of Hot Pursuit 2, U2, Carbon and MW elements. Career's not so great like in MW or even Carbon I guess, but it's very interesting. Some missions (races) are like a cold Coke on a hot summer day, not very smart but overall refreshing NFS series routine :) Chases aren't so hard like in MW (medium level) but still remain very challenging, fast. Civil and police cars seem much more lighter and flying all over the track more dynamiclly then in previous series ;)
Overall
You will be disapointed. Why? Because this is not Most Wanted 2. Period. It's a very simple and addictive racing game with many elements from previous NFS series. Can't really say Undercover is better that any other of NFS series games. It's just different. Anyone who's is familiar with NFS series should play it.
