Need for Speed: Undercover, Uncovered

Push it EA games has revealed the next charter in the Need For Speed series entitled, Need for Speed: Undercover. By the sound of the game the first thing that may come to mind is that the games about a cop that goes “Undercover” to try and stop a underground racing circuit but, it’s not my place to give details about any games at this point.

Anyway, the game is being developed by one of EA Vancouver’s two Need of Speed teams. The Need for Speed team was split into two teams giving each team more time to give yearly updates for the franchise. Instead of having one team only 12 months to create the next installment, giving each team a full two years to work on the game.

It was hinted that the game could be inspired by movies, somewhat like “The Transporter.” With all these facts in mind this game may turn in to a worthy competitor for the Burnout series?

  9. I believe Pro Street wasnt good because it never had the element of racing on the streets to enjoy n4s i had to go back to ‘most wanted’ i do have carbon but i like to drive in the day time night is good but street racing takes place at all times of the day. so tip for undercover get illegal racing back switch between day and night bring challenge series back as a mini game and more cars to choose from p.s try and get a ferrari in the game

  14. i think that NFS most wanted was the best NFS ever,both undergrounds got boring, carbon took me to days to beat, and prostreet just plain sucked. i’m a big NFS fan overall and i really hope undercover is good

    Posted by john | July 23, 2008, 9:00 pm
  15. with this new need for speed they should get suttin like engine swaps and tuning like in underground 2..(that was reall good detailed tuning) plus make it so we could maybe get out our cars or atleast so we could create a person and bring some uniqueness to the game also free roam is missed trust me ea guys eveyone was disapointed that prostreet there was no type of free roam and one more thing Co Op that would be SUPER co op games bring your friends together and everything get alot more intresting. again these are just suggestions i know its hard as hell to make all this possible.

  16. prostreet sucked…they should just make a n4s like underground 2…free roam…at night….race people on the street…neon lights…..that was hot….carbon is alrite..most wanted is the best one so far….inside course racing games..suk…we are teens thats wat we like real street racing….

    Posted by blinddrsnipa | July 25, 2008, 10:15 am
  17. I checked it out on Wikipedia.com it says the its features are going 2 be “Mostwanted-ish”. It has 2 be better than Prostreet it just sucked.

    Posted by steven | July 28, 2008, 5:46 pm
  21. k NFS undercover should be good, cuz EA has failed with Pro Street, MW was the best and both undergrounds sucked, i think they should have time of the day change in Undecover….

    Posted by your mom | July 29, 2008, 5:49 pm
  22. would there be free rom like in nfsc,nfspmw,and nfsu2?O will there be cops also?

    Posted by steven | July 29, 2008, 10:36 pm
  23. will there be engines that stick out of the classic car like in Need For Speed Carbon?

    Posted by steven | July 29, 2008, 10:41 pm
  24. do you think you can put new cities in it, like can you put tokoy, san deigo,and arazon, in the desert where there is no road and you could slidinng on the sid of clif?that would really be fun, don’t you think!O and maybe can you put like when you beat a race and you get 6,000$ can you beat it agian andget the same money?

  27. It’s going to have the gameplay of carbon and mostwanted and you have 2 choices be an undercover cop or a street racer, you’re choice

    Posted by Nik | August 3, 2008, 2:37 pm
  28. Those are the N4S games i’ve played:
    U2: too long, no history, just racing and nothing else.
    Most Wanted: Hot stuff!!!, this game rocks, the only disanvantage was less tuning.
    Carbon: Good game, i loved autosculpt, but too short
    Prostreet: Piece of shit, no free-roam, this one sucks, i’d rather play the first N4S than this SHIT

  29. What are the systems are it for?????

    Posted by kevin | August 6, 2008, 6:56 am
  30. Heres a list of what i think the new NFS should have.

    1. free roam( a very big city)

    2.a very large selection of real body kits and u can mix them however u like ( and u can pic if u want it fiberglass, urethane, or carbon fiber. with realistic prices)

    3. A very wide selection of body upgrades (interior and exterior parts: as in wheels, fenders, hoods, lights, doors, seats, gauges, harness,steering wheel, etc) with real manufactures

    4.Battles (like the import tuner game, they use to have int in undeerground 2)

    5.More import cars, as in honda, acura, nissan, etc.(most street racers have hondas, so need more of those).

    5.Graphics are good and keep the realistic damage

    6.Online should be great, they should have an online car show with judes and u get prizes if u win(like nopi). They should also have a free roam where u can battle other drivers for money and pink slips whenever u like and u could also have car meets at local places(like what we have in Atlanta. every thursday we have a meet at the varsity, and have a car show and burnout contest)

    7.We should be able to make characters for our cars

    8.We should be able to get out of our cars and do other things.

    9.They dont have to get rid or the tracks and drag strips like they have in need for speed, but u can drive there on certain days and race like race wars or friday night drag at atlanta motor speedway

    10.Make all the cars realistic, not only in there looks but also in the way they drive, and engin specs.

    11.All of the performance upgrades should be realistic, as in engin swaps, and modifieing differnt parts like turbos for your car.

    12. and last but not least, the game should come out on all the big systems, as in Xbox 360 and PS3

    IF NFS MAKES THE GAME LIKE THAT IT WILL BE TH BEST RACING GAME EVER and all of the real racer plus there fans and even people that never played it will love it.

  33. hmm, what will online be like?
    I sure hope its like a big free roam where you can race random people roaming too, and meet-up places. I’ve always wanted a Need For Speed like that, never happened. Hope it happens with this game.

    Posted by stylez. | August 12, 2008, 4:53 am
  34. oh and i hope theres engine swaps!! :O lets chuck a V8 into an S15 and drift it on the track. xD
