"Great game, but gets old fast"
Pros: Great graphics.
Great soundtrack.
Best "underground"-type racing game to date.
A lot of awesome cars and upgrades.
Scenery is beautiful, they really cover Los Angeles very well. Huge map.
Cons: Game gets quite repetitive after a little while.
Last few races in game are very difficult.
AI is pretty stupid, even in the final race.

"a masterpeice in racing simulation!"
Pros: Need for speed underground is the pinnacle of all racing games on the p.c
the graphics are excellent and dont require you to have a top end card,i first ran this with a radeon 9250,which it ran ok on,now i have a geforce 6600gt and it rocks
the carrer mode is brilliant,i like the way you can drive around the city and slip into mini games,and by tweaking the graphics options you can get this looking pretty good
ive also played this on the ps2,but comapred to the p.c version its a non-starter,the ps2 version looks slow and distorted,while the p.c version is clear and runs smooth
you will normally find that with most p.c games,they are far better than any console equivelent
electronic arts should be proud of themselves for a masterpeice in computer games,this will enter the hall of fame of computer games,up there with fear,doom3,quake and far cry
well done E.A
Cons: the higher video settings look shabby if your card dosent support it,to use higher video settings you need a geforce 6600/6800 or higher or a radeon x800 or higher

"They should have kept this Undergound"
Pros: The game has nice GFX, sound and music is OK. The free raoming option is also a nice addition. But it just doesn't feel any different than part 1...
Cons: It's more from the same. Seen that, been there... Spare yourself the trouble and keep playing NFSU 1.
