They did a better review than ign did. lol, ign talkes shit bout the game. I cant wait till i pick up hot pursuit, that game kicks ass

For all of you calling this guy a dumbass because he compared Most Wanted with this should chill out. First of all, he's not a dumbass. He's a professional game reviewer. Second, by saying "Undercover feels like Most Wanted", he really means that the gameplay is similar such as police pursuits and free roaming. So, you know what you can do? Shut the fuck up.

@janboblarry In my opinion NFS Prostreet (2007) was the worst because I always had problems beating the 1/4 mile drag races, and it demands a lot of precision on shifting. It's a lot easier to shift in NFS Underground for me. The races were still easy for me to beat, but the lousy drag racing always prevented me from getting further in career mode. I traded Prostreet at Gamestop a while back. As far as Undercover was concerned, the racing was fun but the framerate was horrible.

@SiMgUrL1721 IGN always brings the rating down if there are a few problems even if they do not bring down the experience as a whole. Gamespot does take problems into account, but then they weigh out the problems with the good aspects and judge the game from there.

When it comes to Undercover, IGN just went on about the bad features. Gamespot did mention a few bad aspects, but then they followed that with praising another feature(s) of the game, so it doesn't sound so bad after all.

[SiMgUrL1721]

@MyVideoHubOnDell Yea. I noticed that too sometimes. For example, when IGN reviewed Mario Party 8, they gave it a 5.2 (mediocre) rating. On the other hand, Gamespot gave it a 6.5 (fair rating). Both of them mentioned about the outdated graphics and the spotty widescreen support, but IGN was being too harsh on the Wii controls. Gamespot thought that the controls were fine. In that game, I agree with Gamespot a little more because the mini-games don't have a lot of control issues.

hmmm sounds like a good game in this rewiew. too bad. tis is the second worst nfs game ive playd. the worst beeing nfs mw5-1-0 for the psp

[MyVideoHubOnDell]

@SiMgUrL1721 I'd say Gamespot reviews games more fairly than IGN does as they don't focus too much on the negative aspects or issues of games if these issues aren't significant enough to bring the whole experience down. IGN pays too much attention on insignificant issues of games and often times draws the rating from these issues. With Undercover, they complained about things that don't really matter such as closed off roads during races, yet they didn't even praise the new Cops and Robbers mode

[SiMgUrL1721]

@MyVideoHubOnDell That's true. At least Gamespot was being fair at this review because they evaluate the game with its positive and negative aspects. Does that mean Gamespot is better than IGN at reviewing games?

[MyVideoHubOnDell]

@SiMgUrL1721 The AI is generally easy throughout the game, and it doesn't really get more difficult after the beginning of the game.

I don't understand why Gametrailers and IGN complained about the roads being closed off in races in Undercover, but they didn't when they reviewed Most Wanted. They really should consider and appreciate the good aspects of the game instead of complain about the bad ones and then judge the game as a whole from the negative points.

[SiMgUrL1721]

@MyVideoHubOnDell True. I noticed that when I was watching IGN's review of Need for Speed Undercover. I still wonder why the AI was poor in the beginning of the game. Does this game get more difficult later on in the quest mode? I also wonder why the drive events were closed off in the free roam area. There's not much point driving in the free roam area unless cops are chasing me. LOL
