Need for speed undercover has some bad flaws.
We all loved most wanted it was exciting and a solid effort by EA and after the letdowns that are carbon and prostreet i was hoping EA had finally manage to make a solid racer but sadly they have only managed to make a decent racer read on.
Story
Not really a story cutscenes galore with no reason for them half the time but with that said they are real people in these cutscenes and they are cheesy yet pretty good at the same time. The game has some fun races like highway battle or cost to slate so your getting a good varied choice of events however all your doing is an event then at some point a cutscene pops up and there was no reason for this but it still does and thats about it but if this had been a movie i could see car freaks actually liking it.
This game has some flaws i would like to mention first of all i decided to waste 250 microsoft points on a bugatti veyron thinking i was getting the 253mph W16 car instead i got a very quick car that topped out around 225mph or something not 253 and even after wasting massive in game money i achieved 246mph still 8mph off the real thing this is a joke not only because i used points but because the fastest car in the game does not do its real world speed and thats not mentioning how all cars top speed are staged none top out realistic like the needle slightly pushing a bit on nop it just tops out at the same speed constantly. The other problem is the police suvs yes thats SUV can actually and im not joking out pace a 1001bhp veyron i had a whole highway of space to get the powerdown and within seconds my speedo was at 215mph and all of a sudden a police suv blasts by like a rocket no SUV on the planet can achieve 215 not even porsches cayenne turbo and thats forgetting that they still keep up even 230+ its pointless unbalalanced fake silly and frustrating.
The games car list is great you get a great selections of cars to choose from and its very varied unlike midnight clubs and theres a great choice of modifications you can do to your car.
Multiplayer
This is good fun actually if you do buy this game play the MP for a while it gave me a good bit of fun.
FRAMERATE
This game has the worst Framerate of any racer i have played on the 360 its terrible and to think the 360 has the best framerate cant imagine the other consoles.
Pros
movie like cutscenes work ( kinda)
Varied car choice
Great sense of speed ( when the framerate works)
Cons
Terrible framerate
unbalanced chases
No real story just cutscenes with you racing in between
Visuals have too much bloom to them it looks bad actually
Verdict
NFU undercover is GOOD at best but it has some serious flaws that better never touch another another NFS game so heres hoping the next NFS has a better development time so buy if you adored most wanted and rent if your having doubts.
