    This game is excellent but it wont keep you entertained for that

    Game play: If you`re expecting this game to have corvettes and Lamborghini`s this game is not the case in underground. You start as a rookie racer in the underground racing league and that is how you build up your rep on your car and in your profile you have 111 races to do including the last final race that mean 112 races. You start with cars like dodge neon, Peugeot, Honda civic and slow cars and the more you race the more you`re car gets faster. When you think about 112 races it seems long but its pretty fun when you get into the action of the game. The races are fun but its like racing on the same track 112 times because you will easily notice that you would be driving on the same tracks over and over again i`m not saying on one track i`m saying about 25 racing tracks that will be repeated in your 112 races. That might seem like a boring game but that is the hole problem causing this game to feel rather flat if this game would have been better on the career if would easily give this game a 8.5 to 9.0 score. The Customization is extreme all that you do in the menu is amazing you can apply up to 4 vinyl layers or use unique ones you can change front bumper rear bumper mirrors side skirts window tints neon headlights taillights muffler tips and allot of options that is where the hole fun is. I have played this before and i gave up at 70 something races on the xbox console then i thought i could give this game a chance got it on the game cube console first night got to 38 races 2nd night got to 59 races third night got to 83 and Friday got to 112 races and wow the experience is fun but there is only about 8 cutscenes in all that much more would have been appreciated to keep you going.

    Graphics: Graphics are decent but are not the best the sky looks dull but the clouds and temperature never change the effects of the headlights seen on the road are excellent effect and splashing on the water really makes this game add up.

    Sound: Music is good but more ea trax would have been better because i heard the same songs over and over again that i knew all the lyrics but heart.

    Overall: Instant classic worth the price and this game has minor issues but allot of people like this game and that goes for you too :).

    4.0 out of 5.0 Instant classic
