not as good as the firstFeb 07, 2005
By john bob sam van johnson
"sunny"
this game, while having some great improvements added, is not as good as the first. Its a great game but it just isnt as addicting as the first. need for speed underground 1 is still the best racing game for the gba in my opinion although its not as advanced as this. However it is still a very good game, although somewhat short.

the game rocks!!!!!!Jul 22, 2006
This is a great game, the car selection is awesome even though you have to race alot to get diffrent ones i say its worth it. Also after you win a track you open a new one and theres about 15 tracks to every thing like drift,drag,circuit,etc. Theres also alot of shortcuts in the tracks its cool. This game is awesome!!!!!!

Part 2 of the UndergroundDec 27, 2004
When I got this game, I found that it was pretty much the same as Underground 1, except the graphics were a bit different. But as I got farther on, I noticed new things. The drags are much more involved this time, with jumps and traffic. The drift is the same. The circuit levels get better as you go. There are 3 parts of circuit racing. Part one of Circuit takes place in the outskirts of the city, part 2 takes place in twilight on the outskirts, and part 3 takes place at night in the dead of the city. The levels that are the best to play are Financial, Docks, and Freeway. In this game, you don't get money when you win, you get points, which are the same as money. The cars are the same, but the twist is that when you win a certain number of races, you get one of the cars again, but his time it's already pimped out for you. Say you have a regular Skyline. If you win a certain amount of races, you get another Skyline that's pimped out EA GAMES style. The parts for the cars are better, too. There's neon lights to put under the car this time. The game is pretty good. I've had it for 2 days and I'm already 86% done with it.

Need for Speed Underground 2: It's AddictiveApr 05, 2005
By Andrew Bogert Note: Please read bottom of review before reading!
NFS Underground 2 is a very good game. It has 4 modes and 2 are good that I know of. I'll explain everything in the main menu. They are Race Now which lets you have quick race (that shouldn't make you that mad if you lose), Go Underground, in other words, the campaign, which you go to to unlock cars, upgrades, and tracks for play in the Race Now mode, Mini Games which really isn't worth doing, Garage where you work on your cars, Profile where you can look at how much of the game you completed, your personal stats, high scores, and go to options, and Multiplayer which I haven't done yet so I can't tell anything else than you do stuff with others (by linking!). There are 10 different things for upgrading and there is a section where you can change your cars looks to make it attractive. Before I end, I would like to share a few things. When you have driven over 500 miles, you get a Nissan Skyline NFS style. And the best cars are Mitshubishi Lancer EVO VIII (all-around) and Nissan Skyline (speed). If you like rock you'll love this music, if not you'll need to turn the sound off!
**WARNING**
If you do not like short games, please go find
another game!

This game blowsJun 07, 2005
By Theringbearer14 If you've ever played need for speed on other consoles than yeah its a good game but on game boy this game sucks. All you do is press a button for the car to go forward and thats basically it. No fun what-so-ever and gives need for speed a bad name...
