When I Need For Speed: Underground played for the first time, I was positively impressed. Finally really cool car, then on again Karieremodus I since NFS: Porsche missing. Even the brilliant graphics and the driving sound made the race to start really well. Only gradually but you noticed the flaws of this game. There would be: - The Karieremodus turns out to be cheap to link the race. Although there are some video snippets that should tell the story, but that's it. - The level of difficulty is not determined by the computer opponents, but by civilian traffic on the roads. You can drive as good even if one in the last round any stupider minibus reinfährt, one can avoid possible frustration is announced. And with the last lap is really so: It feels so often before, as if the program the traffic exactly calculate that the players will inevitably be approached in the last round. If you then for hours on a single 6-lap race Depends, is hard to describe with words ... - In the race, there is the so-called "catch-function", ie when a driver is behind, it automatically moves faster than his opponents, so he is able to catch up again That is meant quite nice, actually makes it. the race but only the more serious, because it can be so fast the car that you can hardly avoid etwaigem oncoming traffic or can cut tight corners! - In the later races, the computer opponents are so strong that a normal player, the race can hardly provide. The opponent cars also are then virtually "invulnerable", which means that they mostly survive accidents to be thrown without hundreds of meters through the air, as it almost always happens with cars. - The graphics are beautiful but the whole game is only in a big city at night. Although initially fascinate even the great lighting effects, but later it's just boring, over and over again to go by the same sections of track that are chained just in a different order each other. - The car can only be "outwardly" tuned Proper tuning, such as the tire pressure, or the grip, as yet in NFS: Porsche is not possible.. - There is no decent multiplayer mode, only via the Internet - Of course there are also positive aspects, which is why I bought the game, too: - At first, make the races really fun, and it still makes sense to adjust the level of difficulty. - The music and graphics with brilliant lighting effects, bringing the feeling of speed on its peak. - The various modes, such as round trip, Sprint, Drag and Drift are varied, unfortunately make later only drag and drift fun, because the inconsistencies described above. Overall the game so do not hold in the longer term, what it promises. Too Big is the frustration that one has to go through at the end ... Because of the good approaches's 2 stars
