| NFS UC: The creation of the Porsche GT2 |
Saturday, 27.09.2008 |
 Andy Blackmore, the Senior Vehicle Concept Artist presents at the Speedhunters Blog his works on the Porsche GT2, which also has been used for the cover of Need for Speed Undercover.
Speedhunters is a website from the developers of EA Black Box, which gives an overview of the motor sports happenings around the world, with focus on Need for Speed-like events.
During early production of Need for Speed: Undercover, we started looking at the cars our characters might drive and also which car would end up on the cover. It’s been a while since a Porsche has been featured on a Need for Speed cover, so we decided to use the iconic Porsche 911 for this game.
This called for a unique body kit for the 997 GT2. The brief was to create an ‘aggressive, but tasteful’ kit. Yes, those were the very words! As Senior Vehicle Concept Artist, it was my job to turn that 'brief' into something visual....
Andy Blackmore explains the way from the Body Kit Design, over modelling to the paintworks on the car. In this article you can find some concept drawings, how the Porsche GT2 was created. If you want to know, how the GT2 looks on the NFS Undercover Covers, take a look at our boxart-collection.

| NFS UC: No demo planned! (Update) |
Friday, 19.09.2008 |
According to the onlinemagazine GamingIndians.com there won't be any demo of Need for Speed Undercover. The magazine talked with producer John Doyle at the Games Convention Asia 2008, who supposedly said that "EA would not be releasing a demo of the game since they wanted to concentrate on the game rather than spend time on the demo".
At the moment there is no official confirmation of this statement, but as soon as we know more, you get to know here.
Update:
It's confirmed, there won't be a demo of NFS Undercover! What do you think about that? Is it enough for you to trust reviews, to buy the game? Let us know in the comments.

| NFS UC: 4 new Gameplay-Videos & Interview with Bill Harrison |
Thursday, 18.09.2008 |
IGN published an interview with Bill Harrison, the Executive Producer of Need for Speed Undercover. He talks about the improvements in the game, the cinematic style and the work with Maggie Q.
He also reveils some new information, like for example there will be more than 55 licensed cars or a new multiplayer-mode called Cops N' Robbers!
Bill Harrison: In addition to the classic sprint and circuit race modes, Need for Speed Undercover features an all new exclusive multiplayer mode, Cops N' Robbers. This visceral team-based mode supports up to eight players and pits two teams of four players against each other. Robbers must pick up the money and take it to the drop-off point while the cops attempt to prevent the drop-off. Each game consists of two rounds giving the players the chance to play as the Cops and as the Robbers.
I guess this can be quite interesting. You can read the complete interview under the following links.
Additionally there are 4 new videos of NFS Undercover, which show the Highway Battle and Cop chases.
(Thanks to aaron for the info.)
