Summary: Inexperienced drivers need not apply
Comment: First of all, here are the good points for this game:a very nice selection of cars, from a Ford Focus and Mitsubishi Eclipse to a Nissan Skyline GT-R. All are quite customizable, with special hoods, roof scoops, wheel rims, and side skirts. Special decals broadcasting who modified your car can be placed on the doors and windshield. Add your own decals like stripes, flames, etc. on your car as well. Some in my own opinion make the car look worse, not better, but like I said, that's a matter of opinion. Performance modifications like turbos and nitro can be added as well. I got my own car to around 206 mph from these upgrades. If you do well enough, some of the characters in the game will challenge you to a time trial. Win and you get a free body or engine upgrade; lose and you get nothing.
The tracks themselves are a bit interesting as well. There are circuit, point-to-point races, as well as drag and drift events. In the circuit and point-to-point races,you should notice shortcuts along the way. Take them for extra points. Some are simple,like cutting corners, others involve flying (literally) through parking garages under construction. Note: if you use an automatic transmission, practice with a manual before you try this game. The drag races are manual transmission only.
The bad parts are as follows: I know it is called Underground for a reason, but I would like to see some daytime racing instead of only night time. Also, quite often the gap between me and the guy in 2nd was between 0.03 to 0.94 seconds or so, hence the title for this review. That was with the easy level too. Hard can be won, it just takes a few more restarts. One other thing is that the opponents in this game are not afraid of contact with you or the wall, so long as they go faster.
So, this is not a bad game, just be ready to take a few hits and provide some yourself in the later parts of the game, but don't worry, there is no damage in this game.

Summary: Fun for a 17 yr old
Comment: So I bought the game a few weeks ago off the internet. Was it worth the $4 I payed for it? Heck yea!
Easily the best part is modding the cars. There's a pretty big selection of cars, at least big enough for me.
The lack of tracks though kind of irritates me. There's about 5 tracks total for circuit mode, but usually you have to run them in reverse or "mirrored" so it seems like there are tons of tracks. Some tracks are hard though.
The farther you progress in Underground mode, the harder it gets. It's more of an arcade style racing game. I like it better than Project Gotham Racing 2. Probably because PGR2 is very realistic and you have to really get on the brakes in the corners. In NFSU, you can take turns at higher speeds and it's more fun than hitting the breaks all the time.
It's a very deep game and I've probably played it about 20 hours so far and I havent beaten it yet. I would definitely recommend it.

Summary: What is wrong with this game??
Comment: I don't see why some reviews don't like it. It is fun and fast. yOu play DIFFERENT levels in the game. I haven't even finsihed it and i got it last year. That's because this is really competative and fun. You can play in two player mode and go head to head. The songs are sucky though! The are the worst! My dad's heard bad language in some and the beat is stupid. Everythign would have been perfect is it wasn't for the stupid and sucky songs!!!!:(:(:(:(:

Summary: NFS:U
Comment: Well, it's a good game. I've unlocked everything and am working on Underground mode. One thing I looked at though. 2001 Project Gotham Racing with Kudos scoring system. 2003 Need for Speed: Underground Style Points. So I decided to replay my copy of PGR. You can gain Style Points for almost all the same tricks as in PGR too. Very similar, quite unoriginal. Other than that, great!
