    Anyone play the new Need For Speed yet?

    thinking about trading in NHL2004 for it (I have too many sports games right now, so I can do every franchise/dynasty and this is my least fav)

    I'm playing it right now (PS2). I rented it. It's pretty damn fun. Drag racing is AWESOME.

    If you have any questions, feel free to ask me.

          is there any replay and does the "underground" mode seem like it would take a while to complete?

                I would guess the underground mode would take anywhere 30-40hrs to complete. There is a total of 111 events you need to complete and I've completed almost 20 in about 3-4hrs of play, also there are no replays.

                      There is absolutely no kinds of replay. I wish there were because some of the drag racing ends are so close superb you would want to SAVE the replay.

                      The "Go Underground" mode is very fun, and possibly long lasting if you conserve time with this game. Considering I rented this game Saturday, have to return it at 12:00 noon Thursday, and can only play on non-schoolnights (i.e. usually Friday, Saturday, and Sunday), I have been playing consecutive hours with this game, possibly about 18 hours now.

                      I'm not sure exactly what tells how far you've done with the game. You have a reputation rating, with about 5 stars, and 10 bars, each 10 bars equals a star. I'm at about my 3rd star and I've gone about 4 bars.

                      Not to mention you can choose whether you want to play Easy, Medium, or Hard for that race/drift event. Easy is the least rewarding, and Hard is the most rewarding (in terms of money in your bank).

                      It has lots of value as to how you want to upgrade your car also. You can change paints, add decals and vinyls, change rims, all of the body parts, your headlights and taillights, the neon light on the bottom, NOS upgrades, weight reduction upgrades, fuel system, engines, tires, muffler, hoods, trunks, rooftops, and brakes. That's all from memory because I can't play right now.

                      I'm keeping the same car I've had since my first trade-in, and I've unlocked so many cars and hadn't used them yet.

                      I'm going to try to beat it as quick as possible, and I can play it before Thursday because of Thanksgiving break, so I can now play on Wednesday night, but if the reputation thing is what your percentage thing is all about, then I'm just about halfway done.

                      Online play is okay. No lag, that's a plus. However, so many people are already like 100% done or something because they all have their Mitsubishi Skylines with like perfect engines and extreme performance NOS upgrades, so you either need a GameShark or whatever to beat them. Also, you can only race 1 person, not 3 or anything.

                      This game is pretty damn good, and if you want to buy it, and if you get bored with games after completing them, conserve your playing time to about an hour or two in Underground mode a day, and... yeah.

                      I've had a blast with renting it so far... it just depends on how you like these kinds of games.

You can change paints, add decals and vinyls, change rims, all of the body parts, your headlights and taillights, the neon light on the bottom, NOS upgrades, weight reduction upgrades, fuel system, engines, tires, muffler, hoods, trunks, rooftops, and brakes. That's all from memory because I can't play right now.

                              I'm keeping the same car I've had since my first trade-in, and I've unlocked so many cars and hadn't used them yet.

                              I'm going to try to beat it as quick as possible, and I can play it before Thursday because of Thanksgiving break, so I can now play on Wednesday night, but if the reputation thing is what your percentage thing is all about, then I'm just about halfway done.

                              Online play is okay. No lag, that's a plus. However, so many people are already like 100% done or something because they all have their Mitsubishi Skylines with like perfect engines and extreme performance NOS upgrades, so you either need a GameShark or whatever to beat them. Also, you can only race 1 person, not 3 or anything.

                              This game is pretty damn good, and if you want to buy it, and if you get bored with games after completing them, conserve your playing time to about an hour or two in Underground mode a day, and... yeah.

                              I've had a blast with renting it so far... it just depends on how you like these kinds of games.
