The Latest Need For Speed Game

The newest ‘Need For Speed’ title has got some pretty poor reviews so far, but I can’t see the problem with the game.

I got the game yesterday and haven’t stopped playing it since, it’s great! With the great ‘Most Wanted’ title and then the downhill slide that was the ‘ProStreet’ title, the Need For Speed range needed a lift. And I think that this new ‘Need For Speed’ title is that lift.

The game throws you into the action rather suddenly, the opening movie chase scene cuts you into the action part way through, so make sure you’re not drinking like I was.

Overall, the game is alot like ‘Need For Speed: Most Wanted’ with many high speed cop chases and the action packed street races.

However, the thing that makes ‘Undercover’ better than ‘Most Wanted’ is the brilliant graphics and new cars. With a new range of cars including the Pagani Zonda F, Mclaren F1 and the Bugatti Veyron, you can race at high speeds through the streets.

Although the storyline and graphics of the game are brilliant, there are a few downsides to it. Firstly, the AI not great, within every race there are some fast drivers that aim for the win and wille stop at nothing to beat you, and then there are the annoying slow ones that all they try and do is hold you up or take you out by pushing you into a wall. Most of the time when you restart a race, it will be caused by the AI, which will be followed by some cursing.

Even though the game has it’s downsides, the overall play of the game is brilliant, it’s a mix of ‘Most Wanted’ and ‘Burnout Paradise’, and both of those games were great fun to play. The only thing I can advise is that when EA come to making their next ‘Need For Speed’ title, they spend a little bit more time on their AI. Overall I would rate this game 8.5/10
