Need for Speed Undercover Review

Need for Speed Undercover returns to its roots with hokey cutscenes, wild cop chases, and solid racing action.

The Good:
* Plenty of cop chases
* Instantly join races with press of a button
* Isn’t long before you’re driving a cool car.

The Bad:
* Lots of quirks and nagging gameplay issues
* Emulates Most Wanted, but doesn’t necessarily improve upon it
* Story isn’t much to get excited about
* Frame rate isn’t great.
