Customer Reviews

I am hooked on Need for Speed!
Hubby bought a PS3 a few weeks ago along with the usual warfare games which being female are not for me. Got the free trial download for Prostreet Need for Speed and I decided to have a go and enjoyed it so much we bought the game. Now I am completely hooked. I just love the challenges, trying to win the races, trying not to damage the car. I really feel my adrenalin going and my heart racing.

We also bough Gran Turismo but I cannot get into that yet and find it quite boring.

I need my life back though as I cannot tear myself away from the PS3 and Need for Speed.

Next thing is a wheel as the PS3 controls are quite difficult. Problem with a wheel though is you need a stand?

Average
So, I was dubious about this game as I wasn't sure about the entire concept of the game, I really enjoyed the original need for speed games with the old style of gameplay. I think I was right to be dubious, the difference in style is amazing, its just not the same playing this game. What with it being legal racing and on track instead of street it doesn't seem the same. The whole style of the game has been lost.

The complicated upgrading of the cars is not something I look for in a racing game. I understand that this is probably interesting to the bigger car enthusiasts but this game really isn't about that and as I don't understand most of these concepts I don't like them in a game and I felt that I lost out by not knowing how to set the cars up.

The game does have good graphics which helps it along a bit and it does have reasonable gameplay overall but it doesn't feel like a need for speed game. If anything it just feels like a badly done version of Gran Turismo so to be honest I would probably just go and get that instead. It will have better gameplay and more realistic driving where Need For Speed feels like its lost in between arcade and simulation.

I think EA need to work out where their going with this game before they bring out another one. If they did this they might be on to a winner again but for the time being they don't seem to know where their going which is a shame because this game could have been great where I believe for now it is just average.

Not The Same
Firstly the title, Pro Street. Well it isn't based on streets, it's completely circuits. Everyone enjoyed Need for Speed for high speed street racing not serious track racing. Need for Speed have tried to turn their game into Gran Turismo whixh has disappointed many, including me. Although it is only £15 you just can't get into the game, especially becuase of the time it takes to set u a race. Overall i wouldn't recommend this game, maybe try Race Driver Grid.
