I succumbed to temptation and decided to get this...
Initially it was very cool to see my own car in the game (the Honda Civic) - usually it's only the Hatchback that appears - so that was initially exciting... however...
Is it just me, or is it quite difficult to see where you're going? The screen just seems so blurry and hence gives me a headache... I appreciated they're going for a particular effect, but jeez man - compared to the crystal clarity of GT3, NFSU is truly migraine-inducing!
I've got just over a week to see if it grows on me (cos Game have a 10-day returns policy) but at the moment I'm veering towards a thumbs down purely because of the visuals.
I may end up downloading the PC version cos I know that has an option to turn off the blur effect. Oops, did I say download, obviously I meant buy...
Reminds me of GTA: Vice City - the blur put me off til I discovered you could turn it off - so why no option in NFSU??? Grrr!
And on a final moan, why no user-defineable controls? Every NFS game thus far has allowed you to set up you pad in your own way - but not Underground...
It's not all bad though, the music is good, the presentation is good and when it's not moving - it's looks great!
