    If there are such problems, then patches will be released by either EA or NVIDIA and ATI if it's hardware related.

    Well, I don't have this yet. I enjoyed all the NFS games except for ProStreet so I might actually pick this up. It's very cheap on PC and I don't mind paying R300 for it.

    I must be missing something guys and gals? What do you guys who have it not like about it? I played a MC: LA and I think this trumps it hands down.
    I must agree with you , I'm loving this NFS , its awesome . Like a few other members stated of being a lil worried about this title due to carbon and prostreet and then all the bad reviews . But I must give credit to my lil bro forcing me to try it , I really was not disappointed at all.

    Care to explain? Saying it's crap doesn't explain much

    Yup, been playing this the last 2 days and its quite cool.

    It has elements of:
    1) Hot Pursuit
    2) Underground
    3) Most Wanted

    What I didnt enjoy too much was more technical issues such as drop in framerates, aliasing and tearing. But overall definitely worth jamming.

    Spot on Exact same thing I have been telling ppl when they ask for my feedback. Prostreet is really on its own within the NFS brand. I do believe it was our first taste of NFS Racing simulation for the future. Lots of work that still needs doing before it holds par with GranTurismo or Forza. But, just to recap: If the Old Hot Pursuit style gaming and Most Wanted story line racing sat well with you, then UnderCover will be right up your alley

    The sweet acrid scent of high octane racing fuel and burnt rubber lingering in the air - the only sign that xeroboxer was here... Vrooom vrooom! [#racing#]

    I skipped Carbon and ProStreet, so I decided it was time to try another Need for Speed game. I got Undercover and started it the other night.

    I must say, it's a LOT like like Most Wanted - but i loved Most Wanted - and i am really enjoying Undercover.

    I love the fact that i can just get into a car and drive fast...without worrying about racing lines and braking!!

    That being said....the suddenly got really hard last night. I think i made some wrong choices with my cars. I took the Lotus from the start and it rocked....however it's just too slow now. I cant win the races. The higher Teer cars which i chose completely suck!! So i am struggling now somewhat.... :(
