Need For Speed: Underground 2 (NFSUG2) is an action racing driving game developed by EA Black Box and published by Electronic Arts. It is the eighth installment in the popular Need for Speed driving game series.

Need for Speed Underground 2 is an arcade-style racing game that improves upon the original with more race modes and competitive drifting. NFSU2 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.

Gameplay / Walhthrough:

In the fictitious world ofNFSU2 pc game , the player drives along the roads. The modes have been borrowed from the last installment, Underground game (Circuit, Sprint, Drag, and Drift races). Furthermore, four latest races have been included in NFSU2. The stark fact in this game which is different from the previous versions is that it requires the driver to go to a certain point to start the face. As most of the races are marked by the radar, but some are unseen and it requires the player to search for them.

A circuit race consists of only 4 laps and minimum of 2 laps, looping back to the start line of itself. NFSU2 free game also features Street X which is quite similar to circuit race, but it restricted the driver to go out of closed courses similar to Drift races. In Drifting, the driver can drift the car with the other drivers at the same time. Another interesting feature is that there are special drift races in which the driver drifts from top to bottom, which is quite similar to sprint race. In these races, there is only traffic with no other races, so that the driver earns the points, sliding past city cars. Drag racing simple urges the driver to take the car at its finish line manually. NFSU2 also features the Underground Racing League (URL) which is a tournament on closed tracks outside city streets. URL consists of one to three races with the player against 5 opponents.

The player can challenge the other drivers while cruising on the roads on one-on-one (called ‘Outrun Races’). It is up to the leader which racing route he selects. He will be declared winner if he leaves the opponent behind as much as 300 meters.
