Need for Speed: Underground featured something nobody
ever thought a Need for Speed game would: a storyline.
Also new was the ability for players to completely
customize their cars with name-brand upgrades to the
exterior or under the hood. Another new feature was
that all races took place at night in an anonymous
city that looked like a composite of several major
American locales. New game modes included Drag,
Circuit, and Drifting, a challenge that didn't involve
getting the best lap time.

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.
