Need for Speed Underground 2 For PC With Cheats CD Key Cheats Walkthroughs
The sequel to Need for Speed Underground has big shoes to fill, and it
does so admirably, with vastly improved graphics, new gameplay modes,
and an improved interface. The demo also pushes beyond the scope of the
original, offering a "free roam" mode to explore the cityscape and
challenge competitors at will, two types of "quick races" on two
different tracks, and the ability to race other drivers online.
The graphics are the most obvious improvement. We only can describe them
as truly awesome, even on lower settings. Lights on the bridge sparkle
in the night sky, and mannequins in store windows catch your eye as you
blaze past. Little things, such as pumping your hydraulics and bouncing
down the avenue, make the experience even more fun. Racing is arcade
style (it's awfully hard to destroy your car) and easy to learn, yet
power drifting is an acquired skill that keeps the learning curve
gradual, but long. The only knocks on this top-notch driving game are
the ubiquitous product placements (a Cingular messaging system?), high
system requirements, and large download size. Considering the depth and
quality of Need for Speed Underground 2, though, most gamers can forgive
those details.
Speed: Underground 2 (NFSU2 or NFSUG2) is a cross-platform racing video
game and the eighth installment of popular Need for Speed driving game
series published and developed by Electronic Arts. Released in 2004, it
is the direct sequel to Need for Speed: Underground, and is part of the
Need for Speed series, available on Microsoft Windows, PlayStation 2,
Xbox, GameCube, Game Boy Advance and Nintendo DS. Like its predecessor,
it was also commercially successful, and sold four million copies
worldwide.
The game is based around tuning cars for street races, resuming the Need
for Speed: Underground storyline. Need for Speed: Underground 2
provides several new features, such as a broader customization, new
methods of selecting races, the "explore" mode (just driving around
freely, like the Midnight Club series, in a large city known as
"Bayview"). Underground 2 also introduces several SUVs, which could be
customized as extensively as other Underground 2 vehicles and used to
race against other SUV racers. Brooke Burke is the voice of Rachel
Teller, the person who guides the player throughout the game.
On the Nintendo DS installment, users are able to design custom decals
to adorn any vehicle in the game. The PlayStation Portable equivalent is
Need for Speed: Underground Rivals.
In addition to the racing modes included in the previous Underground
game (Circuit, Sprint, Drag and Drift races), four new variations of
races have been provided in Underground 2. One racing mode was dropped,
this being the Knockout competitions. Still, a Lap Knockout option is
available when racing Circuit in non-career races. Underground 2 is
unique among the games in the Need For Speed series in that it requires
players to drive to a certain place in the city in order to begin a race
(other games allow the player to select a race from a menu). Most races
are marked on the in-game radar, but some are hidden and the player
must search for them, should he decide to play them.
A circuit race is a standard race that involves up to four cars driving
around a track that loops back to the start line of itself. A circuit
race is typically a maximum of four laps and minimum of 2 laps. A sprint
race is just like a circuit race except that the track does not loop
back to the start line. It's a race from A to B involving a maximum of
four vehicles, and because of the track design there is only one lap.
Street X races are similar to Circuit races, but they take place on
closed courses similar to Drift races.
As in Need for Speed: Underground, Underground 2 continues to offer
similar vehicles for purchase and modification, most of which consist of
Japanese models, with a sizable number of European and American models.
In addition, Underground 2 is the first game in the Need for Speed
series to offer three SUVs as racing vehicles, which may be modified
more extensively than their compact counterparts. also, it is the second
game in the Need for Speed series after Need for Speed: Underground to
offer a Korean-made car (Hyundai Tiburon as a racing vehicle), A total
of 29 vehicle models are available for both versions of the game plus 2
unique for each of them, the PAL version of the game offers an
additional two cars (Peugeot 106 and Vauxhall Corsa) while the NTSC
version offers two different alternatives (Acura RSX and Honda
Customization in Underground 2 was significantly expanded compared to
previous iterations from the series. Visual customization has expanded
with the ability to customize the car's front and rear bumpers, side
skirts, spoiler, hood, exhaust tips, doors, roof scoop, wheels
(including the ability to put on spinners), headlights and taillights,
side mirrors and paint. Vinyls and decals can also be added, as well as
car stereos (amps and speakers), hydraulics, nitrous bottles and under
glow neon. Most visual modifications to the car have no actual effect on
vehicle performance. The sound systems, for example, could be put in
the trunk of cars, but served no purpose other than visual cues.
Hydraulics can be used in combination with nitrous at a start of a race
which can cause a car to do a wheelie and for some cars get a better
launch. The performance and handling of the car is affected by cosmetic
modifications like spoilers and hoods, which affect the downforce of the
car.
The player races around in his Nissan Skyline GT-R over Olympic City,
the setting of Need for Speed: Underground. He then receives a race
challenge from a rather ominous personality who offers him a spot on his
crew, but "won't take 'no' for an answer". The player races off —
Samantha calls the player to inform him about the party — only to be
ambushed by a mysterious driver in a black Hummer H2, who blinds the
player with his headlights, then totals the player's Skyline, and the
flashback fades out.
Fast forward to the present, the player arrives in Bayview, with the
keys to a Nissan 350Z, which is waiting for him outside the airport. The
Player is able to complete a few number of races before returning it to
Rachel. After he arrives at the car lot in the city core district, he
takes one of the cars for free, as it was paid for his damaged Skyline.
It is then that the player embarks on a quest to become the top racer in
Bayview and eventually take down the man who sabotaged his ride months
ago. After winning many races and getting many sponsorships, the player
runs into a street racing crew called the Street Reapers. After winning
against them, the player progresses until he hears about a street racing
gang called the Wraiths, who have been manipulating sponsor deals in
Bayview their favor (and against both the player and Rachel), before a
URL race. The player challenges them to a series of URL (Underground
Racing League) races and eventually gets to Caleb, who is the man
responsible for him wrecking the Skyline in the prologue. After the
player beats the Wraiths in yet another URL race, an infuriated Caleb
with his modified GTO challenges the player to one final race. After
Caleb is defeated, the player gets his role back as the best driver in
Bayview.
