Graphic are better than Gamecube days

I'm a graphics maniac and I tell the truth.
To me there are 3 levels of graphics
first level is the detail and quantity of items on the screen
second level is just plain textures and bulk effects
third level is lighting, transparencies, shadows and stuff.
NFSPS first level can get muddy sometimes, expecially when speed kicks in. Sometimes you have no idea where you are going and it hard to locate turns. Signs are low quality, no people cheering you on, nothing but your car, rival cars, signs, road, sky, and boundaries.
Second Level is pretty good. The cars paint jobs are plain no matter what finish you have but the second level shines when I noticed the bump mapping of the road, the smoke effects, the tire marks, the cracks in the road, the dirt kicked up from the tire look fantastic to me based on earler NFSs on Gamecube.
Third level is eye candy. Whatever is above, beside the car is projected on the car. Wow, much better than GC. The sun glistens on the road, chrome looks like chrome, shadows are true. Its nice.
The game is good until you realize how much you miss pimping out one ride to win all like the ole skool NFS.
I gave it a 7 because there more work to be done.
