PGR2 or NFS underground?

Re: PGR2 or NFS underground?

PGR 2, hands down.

PGR 2 has incredibly fun online racing on XBL; NFSU does not. 'Nuff said.

Plus PGR 2 is deeper, has a very strong driving model for an arcade-sim game, has a fine collection of cars, has tracks in real cities and has the Nurburgring, the most amazing track you'll ever race on in a video game.

PGR 2, in a first-round KO.

Take care,
PK

I was wondering the same thing. I decided on PGR2 based on the outstanding reviews it got from every site plus it sounds like it is a game that takes xbox live to its full potential. I hope to be getting pgr2 for christmas

You won't regret your decision!

NFSU has some serious catch-up AI, as well. I hate that in a racing game. If I'm losing by 10 seconds, then I should lose by 10 seconds. If I'm winning by 30 seconds, I don't want the computer to create artificial competition for me by pushing the CPU car closer. I should be rewarded with a romp for my effort and skill and, conversely, should be penalized for sucking.

Take care,

For a guy without LIVE, is the single experience on PGR2 worth it?

The game is more addictive offline. I have played this game more than any other game this year except for NCAA FB.

Re: PGR2 or NFS underground?

As someone who owns both of them and loves both of them, I can honestly say that I've been playing NFSU more. They are both excellent games, but they are also very different games. PGR centers around Kudos and a lot of different race types. There are races and then there are timed laps and cone challenges. I think the thing that bugs me the most about PGR2 is that even in the cone challenges you have to do a lot of needless power sliding to build up enough kudos to pass the challenge. So more often than not, you find yourself powersliding for the hell of it. I really like PGR2, but some of the needless tire spinning just gets monotonous to me.

NFSU is far from perfect and anyone will immediately notice the slowdown in framerate, but it doesn't cripple the game. If you're able to overlook the slowdown, you will experience the best sense of speed in any racing game. Even though the tracks are very repetitive, it's a great feeling racing through the streets of the various cities.

Both games are excellent and if you can afford both, buy both. If you can only get one, I can't help you because I wouldn't be without either one of them.
