Manufacturer's Description
You never thought it would turn out like this an all-out chase where you're the hunted. And the hunter. Now you must get behind the wheel and risk everything to infiltrate a ruthless international crime syndicate and take them down. The man you're after is a maniac behind the wheel, and he's driving like his life depends on escape, which maybe it does. He's the one with all the answers you need, you will track him down. Needless to say, that fleet of police cruisers in your rearview mirror won't make things any easier. It will take all of your experience and every ounce of skill to outrun the law, take down the enemy, and unlock the truth that puts an end to this chase once and for all.

Fun:
EA have taken a long shot with Undercover, taking the leap from street racing to undercover cops, but it's certainly paid off. For once there's actually a story, placing you in the position of an undercover cop who's working up the ranks, trying to uncover an import smuggling operation. Don't worry if this puts you off, because it doesn't take over the gameplay because the normal police don't know you're one of them. There's still the classic cruiser smashing and bashing and, oh yes, the holy nitrous oxide. :D
The customization is good, and there's a good range of cars. All the classic NFS, such as Nissan Skylines, Mazda RX7s and Toyota Supras, along with the retro muscle cars such as Dodge Chargers, Plymouth Hemi Cudas and Chevrolet Stingrays and modern supercars, such as Aston Marting DB9s, Koenigsegg CCXs and Porsche Caymans.
The graphics are decent for the wii. Yes, they're pants compared to the XBox and PS3 but don't let it put you off because it's worth it for the wii's unique capabilities.
I've got one big complaint though. The city is almost identical to Rockport from NFS Most Wanted. I know it isn't meant to be Rockport, because when you're somewhere you recognise, you go round a corner and you're somewhere different. But if you've played Most Wanted, you'll know what I mean and I think you'll be disappointed, but if you haven't don't let it put you off.
Despite this little glitch, it's still easily a four star game.
Recommended.

Fun:
Although I haven't played for very long, within the first half hour of playing I was very impressed. Ok so the graphics aren't as flashy or brilliant as the 360 or PS3 but the game play is brilliant because the remote is very responsive and the ways in which you can customize your ride are staggering for instance when you buy suspension, you can choose whether you want more or less oversteer/understeer which is covered in three simple options(which is much better than the complicated tuning options you got in pro street). You can also change the vinyles to your liking and to an extent create your own body work by using the front and rear bumper options.
As for the plot, you take up the role as an undercover street racer working with the cops (but they don't know that) and it is your task to infiltrate and take out street racing organisations. The missions you take will vary a lot for instance there are missions which require you to deliver cars with little damage and others where you have to outrun your opponent before a certain time limit runs out.
Pursuit wise you'll be running for your life because all those who have played most wanted would be chased be 2-4 cars at one time, in this game, you'll be chased by an average of 6+ cars from the beginning and pursuits can last for ages (my longest pursuit time so far is about half an hour). As a bonus there are also pursuit missions similar to the ones in most wanted such as trade paint but has a bit of a twist to it (I'll let you figure that one out). However there are pursuit breakers along the way but they are limited so watch your step.
On the down side, apart from the less impressive graphics, sections of the world you drive in are very similar to areas found in most wanted which is a little disappointing but overall a great game.
I would strongly promote this game to those who like to drive like crazy and have some fun but if your one of those types who like to tune your cars and have more of an organised racing game, then I would promote pro street.

Need For Speed: Undercover (Wii)
This is good fun. The graphics are as one expects in a racing game - but the branches of the trees move with the breeze, and shiny cars clearly show good reflections as they move! Not to mention burnt tyres on the roads!
I think the criticism about the controls needs a little perseverance - like learning most games; I found the best way to control the Wii remote was to rest my wrists on my legs - then it was Vroom and away without crashing by accident.
This game has the fun factors that were in NFS Hot Pursuit, Underground and Most Wanted. I'm off to continue playing.........

Undercover is okay, if you have friends round and play in multilayer mode, but if you are just playing by yourself after 1 hour of playing the game you get bored off it! Read more
