Need For Speed: Underground - NGC, XB, PS2
Official EA Games, NFS: Underground Website.

This racing title is amazing to say the least! The copious amounts of botty shaking music is probably the lowest point of this title. Though not as indepth as any part of the Gran Turismo series, it's still quite lush in it's own respects. Many OEM car companies to choose from and many more join the lot in the aftermarket scene. Most racing game buffs usually play their games with an "in cockpit" view, but it almost was impossible to find. In the options it was labeled "close" in the camera section. Once that was adjusted, the immediate removal of the Jean-Claude Van Damme-esque chase cam (for the large jumps and crashes ala Burnout) was the next best thing. Once those total continuity breaking, though fun, effects were removed this game it finally gave off one of the greatest feelings of realistic speed like no other title has given to date. Anyone who loves tuning cars, imports, racing or this "night life" should go out right now and buy this title. If not, at least go rent it and build up your late fees. ^_^

How about some pics?
