Need for Speed: Underground - PC Demo Released

For those of you who want to try it out, its about 200mb. I think its pretty good. I want to buy it when it comes out now.

You might be able to get it there. Its not mentioned on the US NFSU site because its technically a European demo only apparantly. Try it out anyways! Its good.

You can only race with the 350z in the demo, but you can do drag or circuit racing and play online too. There is several (6-8 i think) different modded 350's that are available in the demo. I think its really good. Drag mode takes a bit to get used to. when you hit left or right, think of it like frogger, you change lanes.. I didnt realize that at first so i was hitting left,right,left,right to counter an insane turn and was always losing. So far im liking the demo, but I want fullversion so I can race some hondas!

Left it to download last night, and installed it today. Great game, looks great on my GeForce 4, I'm addicted to the drag race. Reminds me of 2F2F race, GT3 and Gotham Project Racing put into one game.

Release date, if im not mistaken is... November 20th. Should be good. I love drag racing online. Get 4 good people and have fun. But its gonna be better once you get your own customized car.
