Poor graphics.:
I'm surprised to see worse graphics in this than in NFS Underground. You'd think that a newer game would have better graphics...not so. The first thing I did was turn off the blurring that occurred when you started going at a decent speed. That's really distracting.
Very Nice:
Graphix are much better than N4SMW. I really like the 3 different types of teammates. However, the cops aren't nearly as aggressive as they are in N4SMW. I didn't really care for the drifting stages, although it's a good addition for those that like that sort of thing. Nice job!
No way an Audi R8 is faster than a Koenigsegg:
This game kept my attention, but that is about all I can say. The driving is quite unrealistic. The Audi R8 is faster than a Koenigsegg, and a dump truck has a quicker acceleration than a Porsche Carrera GT. The last boss race was so incredibly difficult that I had to play it on the highest resolution and best quality, slowing my laptop down so much that I could play the game frame by frame. If you are a NFS fan, then go ahead and get it, but I think I am a Test Drive Unlimited fan, and this did not satisfy... more info
UGH...:
This game is a decent game but there are some depressingly horrible parts about the PC version.
The system requirements are too harsh for most normal people who have a computer. not one of those "took my salary for 3 years to pay it off" computers. one of those "I got this on Wal-Mart rollback special!" kinds.
It takes way too much space even though you may never be able to play it.
AND, there have been so many issues with the CD-Key not working or working then no longer being operational.
