Need for Speed Undercover with new website

Germany — 

EA, still one of the biggest game publishers (directly after Activision-Blizzard), is responsible for the newest Need for Speed title called Undercover. We reported on our first impressions a while ago.

The game, which will be released on November 21 this year, now has its own website. Please note: You need the newest flash-player to be able to enter the site.

Hate the series. I've bought Underground 2, played Most Wanted one year later and decided I won't support this kind of games series any longer.

Well, it's a bit different for me, I'm a big fan of the franchise, but I started with the very first title and have played all 10 titles that came after that intensively. If you include NFS: Motorcity Online, thats 12 games in total, so I do have a different view on NFS. The first game was awesome and Porsche (the fifth) was the best, but Most Wanted was pretty decent.

Your link has one "http" too many. ;)

Regarding the series, I liked NFSU, I liked NFSU2 somewhat less, and I didn't like Carbon or whatever came next very much. I can't even recall the name of the most recent one. Anyway, I'm glad I only borrowed those games from friends. Now Flatout 2, that's a decent racing game. Any game with explosions is a good game. ;)

fixed the link.

Underground 1 and 2 were ok, but nothing more, Carbon and Prostreet were just bad. But EA is changing a lot at the moment for all their franchises, they split the development for Need for Speed into two teams, so the games get a longer development cycle, I hope that Undercover will benefit from that, if it's just a movie with bad acting and some racing in the middle, the franchise will lose my support for good.

EA seems to be changing a lot in generel these days. I read a while ago that some bloke from EA stated that he disagreed with companies mass-suing people who illegaly download their games, because he didn't believe in taking potential customers to court. That's a surprisingly insightful position to take, if you ask me.
The guys at EA seem to be working hard to compensate for at least some of the things they've done wrong these past years.

Yup, the guy is called Peter Moore and among other thing he said smart thing about that topic, like: "It didn't work for the music industry." You can read on about it on 1up if you like or haven't done so already.
