the Demo is out!

 

Lol. I KNOW! I just got done playing it.
I dl'ed this morn.

What are your thoughts?

The damage seems a bit...forza-ish. I was hoping for more of a 'dirt' effect when it came to crashes. Also, the GT-R...just doesnt seem to fit. Oh well. I'll still buy it.

 

it's cool but it still feels wierd! i'm still 50/50 about buying it or not.

 

Yeah, I was going to re-consider but since Army of two got post-poned...I NEED a new game. So this is gonna be it. I'll risk it.

 

I'm thinking on staying with Forza and Most Wanted and just getting Assasin's Creed which comes out the same day as Pro Street.

 

I'm going to get it, already have it on preorder. I think the demo is pretty good. The smoke is awesome.

I can't wait to try out the Drag and Drift events.

 

I went on gamefaqs' board for AC and heard that it hasnt actually gone 'gold' yet and theres a high possibility that it could be delayed because of...some...memory..thing or something that a developer had mentioned he 'thinks' is fixed. Check it out.

Also, in response to the above post, I cant wait to see drifting, also I heard that in drag mode theres going to be a side mode within it which is a wheelie contest. They mention it in one of the videos. I dont know if its still in there or not but doing a wheelie off the start is going to be amazing.

 

Theres a new Drag video up. The smoke circles the tires as you heat them up before the race. Looks amaza-zing

 

I'm not sure about it yet... I'll dl the demo tonight. The problem is every time I buy a new game, my roommate beats it 2 or 3 times and I never have time to play...

I still haven't beaten GOW, Bioshock or Halo 3. And I've barely even started on Orange Box (Portal rules though)

 

The racing events seem cool but Gosh no free roaming? Gosh what's up with EA. They always leaving something out. after need for speed underground 2 they left out some type if game play.
Need for speed : most wanted left out difting. they cut out a lot custom features ( like puting limbo doors and a the spray in the trunk)
Need for speed : carbon left out Draging racing. They said "no one care about drag racing anymore" they cut out a lot custom features in this one too.
now Need for speed : pro-street left out free-roaming. What if i dont want to race. what if I want just drive around in the game? or get chased by the cops.
Give us the game play people want so we can play the game how we want to play it.
EA is messing up in my eyes

So far I still think underground 2 is still the best.

 

Yeah, I agree that NFS:U2 was the best. Thats the one that really impressed me out of all the 'tuner' Need for speeds. Although I have to admit, Hitting a cop car in Most Wanted and seeing it go flying in the air in slo-mo is pretty entertaining.

Carbon, was weak.

 

GameSpot gave it a Score of
7.0
good ProStreet is a solid racing game, but it's missing most of what made the previous games in the series interesting.

The Good - Nice online options Car damage looks nice and makes totaling your ride fun Solid, albeit unspectacular racing.

The Bad- Ads, sponsored achievements, Missing much of the stuff that made the last few games fun Races start to feel the same after a while Announcers will make your ears bleed.

 

Need for Speed Pro Street with no open world = Fail!!!

 

I'm not too impressed with the demo. The cars just don't feel right.

It's like it's trying to be halfway between a driving sim and an arcade game.

 

exactly! if I wanted to race in a Sim i have Forza 2 for that Need for speed should have stayed with cop pursuits and open world as in Most Wanted! I hope that if there is a next time they do it the right way!

 

Some sites gave it wack reviews. I kind of knew when they took out free roam it's going be wack even if the free-roam is minor to the gameplay but it just added a little bit more to the game. Why would they take out the police chases that was one a the major parts of the gameplay.

 

The cop chases were the best part of NFS. Underground 2 is my favorite, Most Wanted was pretty decent and I gave up on Carbon.

 

played the game minutes ago....pro street...FTL...

 

yea, bought it for the wii...sucks big time...way to drop the ball EA sports

 

^^ the game is like uuuuummmm been there, done that before, They didn't really add anything new but they sure like to take away game play. I don't understand why EA would do something like that. Ever Need for speed game after underground 2 was been missing some type of game play, Underground 2 had everything.
