Title: Need for speed Underground.
Post by: §ôµÏG®ïñD on December 11, 2003, 06:16:23 AM

Anyone played this game?. It\'s quite good, You can customise your car in every aspect, from body kits, neons, Rims, body panels, engine system etc.. You get your car in mags after you get a certain amount of reputation etc.  

Go hire/rent it, car freaks would probably buy this game....

here\'s my car, it\'s a Honda Civic. Stock motor, just the body has been altered.. quite fun. You have to unlock everything, which i haven\'t done yet.

Yeah I have this... graphics are really nice if you have a good video card, the game is sort of fun... has too much of an arcade feel and the unlocking system is sort of sucky... unlock vinyls??? WTF?

NFSU is the most boring arcade racing game I\'ve tried in a long time

Rice-a-roni. ;)

Any reason you guys didn\'t pick it up on PS2?  Can you only play other pc players?

Besides all the ricing out, does it actually play any different than all the other NFS games?

Yea, kind of... You do drag racing, circuit, time trail, power sliding courses etc.. Good fun really. Only thing i don\'t like is you can\'t tweak your engine etc, and they\'ve made it way to arcade style. They should have added a Simulation section to it, realistic damage etc. It\'s a good idea, but it just needs to be expanded more.

I played it at Best Buy and I must say it has the best presntation for any racer out there.  Really gets you psyched to tear it up in your "whip."

i\'m just a little concerned with the gameplay. i\'ve seen some footage of the game and it seems like there is an excessive amount of sliding...i know this was common in ridge racer but it looks really abundant here. is this reflective of the whole game?

There\'s not much sliding, only when you need to etc. One of the types of game play tracks require you to get points from sliding, but during circuit or first there type tracks, you only slide on 90 degree turns etc..  Not every corner.

I\'ve gotten right to the last person. I\'ll finish it tonight. This is what my car is looking like now; my rep is at 5 stars too. I\'ve found a few things besides the realistic issues in this game. What i find completely frustrating is the traffic; it seems to be rendered right in the way of your path a little too much. I found I always hit Vans, Blue car or Taxis. I also found that through most of the tracks, the turns would blend into the background, making it hard to see were to turn. They could have allowed people to have custom plates too. They should have also built the game around more then 1 city.  Anyway Here\'s the car.  It\'s a 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GTR Maxed out, also with a wide body etc.
