After reading Gamespots review i was a little wary of buying this game, but as i needed a new game for my holiday and in the UK theres very little choice in DS games. Im a fan of this game on PS2 so decided to try it out. Im not sure what game Gamespot were playing because this one is brilliant! The controls seem fine to me, press lightly you move slowly, hammer the button and you powerslide. Simple! as for these "muddy undefined" graphics, i was blown away by the detail cramed in. I havnt experienced the pop up yet, but i only have slow cars at the moment. Car customisation is understandibly more restricted than the console versions, but you can still get bodykits, spoilers, hoods, roof scoops, rims, neons, vinals, paints and window tints. The one disapointment i have is the custom decals, because theyre too small and only take up a small section of the car and dont really look like they should be there, but its a nice concept. If like me your DS collection is simply Star Wars and Mario then youl be blown away by NFSU2
