Author's Review
I have recently purchased this game and it is awesome. I spent days playing it and even skipped school the second day I owned this game just to play it. So I thought I would Give you some helpful information on the game.
You start out at the airport in a awesome ride. Then you take off to the garage to begin your career in racing. You can Eventually level up to have your dream car but I'll tell you about it first.
A little about the game
Well for those that don't know what this game is about I will tell you. You are a illegal street racer, but don't worry there are no cops in this game,thank god! You start out with some pretty slow cars but don't worry you can upgrade and get faster cars as the game goes on. You do have a good selection of cars though. Nissan Skyline, H2 Hummer, Ford GTO, and many more,like I said there is a good selection of cars. Then there's the question, how do you find your way around. Well there is a map that you can use. Then(it gets better)you have a GPS system in your car. All you have to do is click on a race or shop you want to go to. After this there will be a big arrow on your screen telling you where to go.
Sound
Music, when it comes to NFSU2 this game does have some pretty awesome songs and sound effects. When you upgrade your car the Engine will eventually whine! The roaring of the engine while you fly bye in the city. Depending on what your doing different songs will come up on the game. When your at the main menu Riders Of The Storm will start playing. But when the story mode is talking to you it is kind of korny with some of the things they say, but at the same time cool. You can be driving down the street people will call you to inform you on secret races and new stuff you unlocked.
Graphics
The graphics in this game is really good, I mean really good. You can be customizing a car and think wow that kicks a**. The graphics when driving around are okay though. The buildings are done pretty good but there's to much advertisement for me. When your driving down a small road or the freeway and your passing cars that you can't race the graphics arn't to great. The only people you can see are the ones standing bye your car in the begening of the race but you can drive through them as if they weren't there. When you crash into buildings it's always cool to see stuff shatter but not much on this game.
Racing
There are a lot of different races on this game. To start out with you have career, single race, 2 player, and online. To get more into it I'll tell you the different types.
First of all my favorite Drag racing. In drag racing you must reb up your engine and drive in manual. Then you must shift and turn into different lanes to avoid collisions.
Next favorite is drifting, in this you must drive on a course or down a hill and skid. Depending on the angle and speed you will get points for drifting.
Then you have circuit, this is when you race laps for a certain amount of time and try to win.
Then comes sprint, this is a long strip of a race course that has no laps so you never know what to expect.
Sometimes you will race URL or Underground Racing League this is when you race the topest racers.
Street x is a small track that has a bunch of small tight turns that you must overcome to win. During this race turning is everything.
Last is outrun races, this is when your driving around the city and you see a racing car driving around and you challenge him. You must then get in front of him for a certain amount of distance to win. This race unlocks unique parts and some cash.
Unlocking things
In this game you can unlock hundreds of items. Ranging anywhere from car body, performance, paint, designs, cars, and specialties.
Unlocking the body parts is like unlocking front or rear bumpers, spoilers, muffler tips headlights and things like that, and even carbon parts as well.
Performance is your cars power messing with the engine, ECU, transmission, suspension, tires, N2O, turbo, and weight reduction.
Paint you can unlock designs or parts of the car to pimp out.
Specialties is the awesome things like split hoods, speakers, spinners and such as that.
Customizing
On this Game you must customize your ride with neon,N2O,hoods,spinners,window tints,rims and so many other things that would take to long to type. But your car is based on a 10 star car look. The cooler the parts you ad the higher your look rating goes up. You have to do this in career to preview on magazine covers and DVD covers, some of these you decide the picture.
Overall this is a really exciting game, racing to unlock
cars and parts and even sponsors this has kept me busy for several weeks this game is worth your time.
