Undercover is the continuing addition to the "Need for Speed" series, however this one in my opinion, seems to offer a mixed bag of goodies.
The cops are back (which were last seen in "Most Wanted"/"Most Wanted 5-1-0 (PSP)", and this time there's a big storyline behind the game.
The cut scenes are good and get you involved in the story, but I was frustrated to find a few spelling mistakes and verb confusions on the on-screen instructions! Its almost as if the game was made in a hurry to get it out.

The graphics, for the most part look good; but there's several technical glitches (sometimes the underside of the road shows, objects suddenly disappear etc.). The gameplay is fairly easy. Actually in comparison with the other NFS games, I found it VERY easy and almost no trouble beating the AI.

What I didn't like was some of the great gametypes from NFS-Underground were missing - namely the drift and drag modes. If you're not a fan of these, then you won't miss it.

Wireless multiplayer is a pain. I tried only the ad-hoc mode with my roommate and found that the game considerably slows down, and sometimes simply didn't work.

If you're a fan of the NFS series, then I guess you won't be disappointed much. But if you're not, you might not like it.
