I recently had the chance to check out an alpha version of NFS Undercover up at EA. I got word earlier that I am allowed to talk about it briefly, so here goes.

The storyline of NFS Undercover is "a rich, cinematic experience where players are an undercover cop taking jobs and competing in races to prove themselves as they infiltrate and takedown an international crime syndicate." What that means, is that you play as an undercover cop, who is out to bust street racing and car theft rings.

EA has definitely taken a different approach with this year's game, corresponding with Hollywood producers and actors, to create the story for NFS Undercover. In fact, they hired Hollywood writer/director Joseph Hodges (of TV show 24 fame) to be the director for NFS:UC.

Actress Maggie Q (Balls of Fury, Die Hard, Mission Impossible III), plays the lead character this time.

Check back on August 20th when I'm allowed to spill my guts about the rest of the game.

It appears Dodge Boy has re-found the link to NFSAddons... as he has upload a whole bunch of his older cars. Since there are more than 10, you won't see them all listed under "Latest Additions" on the right side over there >

But, as always, you can click the "more" link below that list, and see more new additions.

Or, just click here

So This morning I get an email from Bojan the Webmaster at NFSUnlimited.net with a link to a Youtube video, when I first watched it, it looked like a high budget motion picture with some decent cars, action, etc.



At the end of the trailer you can see the url WhichRoadToTake.com, which is a website showing a video feed from an interrogation room. There are some clickable items in the room which show additional videos and some which will be available on 30. July 2008. The "release" date is set to November 18th.
According to xbox360.ign.com - Undercover is released on November 17th.

Share with us what you find on this website, there seem to be some hidden codes which could mean something.

The site itself is connected to EA, but whether or not it is actually related to Need for Speed Undercover, we'll soon find out.

Update: there seems to be Christina Milian in the video - a while ago it has been said that she will appear in the next NFS game.

Could EA be putting some big money into this release of NFS?
Could NFS be changing its ways?
Is this Video Fact or Fiction?
