Need for Speed: ProStreet Message Board  

heyy everyone
i know that everyone is saying that the game is AWESOMEEEE
i just wanna ask if its worth buyin the game?

I know that many more people then me thinks that this is the biggest flop EA has made in the NFS series, i would not buy it and will not...poor graphics even on the best settings and the game/driving feeling is junk.

Woah - one day and EVERYONE says its crap?

I find that hard to believe. I personally am a die-hard NFS fan so no matter how good or bad a NFS game is, I'd buy it.

What I'm trying to say is, take all the NFS games into perspective - every single game was a masterpiece, and when you look at ProStreet on paper (virtually unlimited Autosculpt, advanced damage system etc.), why should this be an exception?

Well play it and see for your self, and the auto-sculpt and car customization is a joke. I also like some of the NFS games, the best they have done is Most Wanted.

THe driving feels like crap. The cars wobble left and right like hell. Almost uncontrollable with a keyboard. Since i sold my steering wheel i can't try else.

The customization i still like though. Interesting features and at interesting cars, like the RS4 or M3 E92. Thats how i want it. I'm more for German cars in games. I still miss the M5 or RS6 in almost every game.

Personally i think its not worth buying it, but renting it is okay. Thats how i do it. Pay 2€ play the game 3 days, make a copy, bring it back, play it to the end, throw it away. Total cost: 2.50€.

Besides that i'm more for open Area driving like in Test Drive Unlimited. I'd like to see a game with plenty of cars (like 100+) and a huge free Island/City/Whatever AND race tracks. Loved the passing on interstates in TDU

Try the demo first before you buy it.

The Demo sucks even more. Idk what they did to that M3, but its wiggling around like Ants up its arse.

Hated the Demo, but the Full seems to be okay although weird physics sometimes. But you can try to "tune away" most stuff and turn off driving helpers like traction control or ESP.

Anyways, I use the Xbox 360. Games like ProStreet are essentially designed for next-gens, so for PS2 and PC (unless you have the best of the best) it's a bit more... undeveloped.

Either that or maybe why the cars wobble is because it's pretty realistic. You dump a loada weight (customization) and power into your car without checking the aerodynamics then of course it's going to roll and wobble. I would know - it applies in the real world as well. Check the suspension, brakes, aerodynamics and downforce before going into races. It's not an arcade racer anymore, where you can drop 100 turbos into your car and everything's okay. By the looks of it this is a very, very realistic game.
