Side by side comparison between the PC and Playstation 2 version of Need for Speed: Undercover (emulated in HD with PCSX2). Support the channel on Patreon: / neogamertvga
Played through both versions and the ps2 version was just way more fun. The bad framerate didnt help but the way the whole game was just made it more fun.
There was a period of time somewhere between 2005 and 2008 when the game devs were overdoing with bloom effect: NFS Most Wanted 2005, NFS Undercover (only HD versions), Just Cause, Burnout Revenge, Mario Kart Wii, etc. Suprisingly this PS2 port of Undercover looks very good on the emulators, and it's totally free of this overdone bloom effect.
next gen looked so dread and empty somehow (maybe because the lack of street details like lamposts or those random bus stops) with overused bloom effects, last gen is just mw reskin but looks nice in the eyes
@@inaxdee Actually no, the original version doesn't are a poorly made version like the PS2/Wii which have recycled assets and bad graphics compared to previous NFS titles for PS2.
Despite its flaws PS2 version still feels like good old Underground, Most Wanted and Carbon while "next-gen" version was a complete unfinished mess. At least on PC you have mods to improve Undercover to tolerable levels. I remember some gaming journalists in magazine preview were shocked when they saw pre-release version of Undercover and thought it was some unfinished beta version or EA said it was unfinished beta version, but you know... 🤦
Ps2 is better change my mind At least the map was better and had cars from the original nfs And the race entries are much better than the 360 and the cars too
It's more about the fact that the PS2 version is easier to play and the fun factor is simply higher. As far as pure visuals are concerned, the PC version is slightly better.
Because they're just fanboys who never had a good childhood. In other words, they are defending a game that, overall, was a failure. Also, Most Wanted 2005 is better than Undercover for PS2
First I got the game on PS2 and I was disappointed. I was shocked to see that it was different from PC and newer consoles. I liked the PC version more, it looked more modern. The PS2 was weird, a mix of Most Wanted and Carbon, with the story of Undercover. 😵
This game is horrible, the graphics are ugly, the physics are rubbish and what's more, it has little customization. Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005 is better than this shit

I agree. I feel way more nostalgic towards that one. The ps3 and pc versions just felt off and incomplete. The music was so good
This game looks more fun today than when I played as a kid
Played it to completion on ps2 a good year ago, while fairly easy it was fun
PS2 version is great
PS2 version It's full of bugs and it's overrated. Most Wanted 2005 better than Undercrapper
But nobody is even talking about most wanted
@@eliasroflchopper3006 True, mf’s always gotta bring up most wanted 💀

Honestly, I love that effect, it gives more sensation of speed although there are other ways to achieve that sensation without exaggerating the bloom.
Weird to see people calling the PS2/Wii version better because its a Frankstein made with reused assets from Most Wanted 2005 and Carbon.
next gen looked so dread and empty somehow (maybe because the lack of street details like lamposts or those random bus stops) with overused bloom effects, last gen is just mw reskin but looks nice in the eyes
It's still better than the shitass 7th-gen/PC console version.

@@Victor_2000sPSP NFS titles got the worst graphics compared to NFS titles on PS2
@@lilgemini4032 I writed wrong, i mean previous PS2 titles.

So, they sell a beta :,(

It is better because PS2 version is basically a reskinned Most Wanted and Carbon put together, PC version was too rushed
Undercover for PS2 it's horrible, that's why Most Wanted 2005 is better than this crap
Makes me wonder if that BMW GTR is in the ps2 version?
its not unfortunately
late reply, but. the Porsche 911 gt2 actually replaced the preset version of it sadly, doesnt exist in the debug menus
Interestingly, in debug menu there are slightly changed leftovers from Carbon like Cross's Corvette and Toyota Supra from NFSC prologue
You guys in these comments are tweakin 😂 the PC version is the best looking version and smoothest version 🤦🏻♂️

Doesn't look like original ps2 version . More like pcsx2 with hi res .
NFS Undercover = PS2 (and XBOX) 2007 and Undercover 2 = PS3 and XBOX 360 2008.
Ps2 wii vs Ps3/XBOX 360/PC|RPCS3/XENIA/
ps2 version looks like a xbox360 game
Looks like a very early 360 game imo
Ps2 🔥🔥
