Game Review – Need For Speed: Undercover (Nintendo DS) – 2 Stars
A good racing simulator should have a have a suitable learning curve – Need for Speed: Undercover doesn’t. It’s not like Gran Turismo which can take months to get your head around. But rather, you steadily work through the entire game without once having to consciously improve technique or practice. In fact, the only reason you can’t beat the final race the first time you open the game is because it hasn’t been unlocked yet. Previous Need For Speed games (e.g. Carbon) have managed this issue, but it seems in their latest outing, they’ve designed a game for three year olds.
