WP writes: "Based on exceptionally poor reception of Need For Speed: Pro Street, EA determined to make this new title in the franchise, Need for Speed Undercover, a welcome return to the open-world, mostly arcade tone of the series' heyday. Unfortunately, EA is better off claiming this title is merely an errant product of a lengthy rebuilding process. It's a toss-up, which title is indeed the franchise's nadir, Pro Street or Undercover. Pro Street is surely a better game, yet may deserve poorer reception for deviating so very far from the old, winning NFS formula. Sadly, Undercover is not at all what NFS fans were looking for when they heard their favorite series was going back to its roots."
