EA: ‘Need for Speed Undercover’ Coming to iPhone

As Gamasutra reports, Electronic Arts has announced that Need For Speed Undercover, the twelfth installment of its popular racing series, will be released for the iPhone and other platforms.
According to EA CEO John Riccitiello, Need for Speed Undercover will bring better innovation and gameplay than the series’ previous incarnations.
Also notable is the fact that the game will star Mission Impossible III actress Margaret Quigley.
As a handler, she will recruit and guide players as they go undercover to infiltrate and take down an international crime syndicate. Players will complete dangerous jobs, compete in street races, and take part in cop chases along the way.
Need for Speed Undercover is set to ship to stores in North America on November 18 and in Europe on November 21. It is unclear at this time whether the game’s appearance in the iTunes App Store will occur in that same timeframe.
See the teaser movie released by EA for a loose glimpse of what’s to come.

A popular racing series, but unfortunately completely shit with cheating AI and typical chav-boy racer shitness. Thanks EA, there is a new device on the market that encourages innovation and you release yet another dire NFS installment (and it will be dire, or it’s not NFS and EA isn’t EA).
