Featured Game- NFS Pro Street

It can't be easy to be a game developer in charge of releasing a new game in a series every year. People don't want the same game over and over, yet they're unhappy if the game strays too far from the established formula. EA deserves credit for trying something different with Need for Speed ProStreet, but the new direction of the series fails to live up to the level of the previous games. There's still a solid racing experience here, and the online component of the Xbox 360 is quite good; but the game's premise is uninteresting and the in-game advertising is over the top. In the end, ProStreet is just another decent but uninspired racing game.

The racing is solid, but nothing special.
Unlike the last two Need for Speed games, which told the story of an underground street racer through campy yet entertaining cutscenes, ProStreet follows the legal street racing career of Ryan Cooper. The game still uses cutscenes to try to instill some story into the proceedings--something about Ryan getting dissed by a big-time street racer--bu ' uninteresting thanks to terrible voice acting and unlikable characters. Ignoring the story, it's your goal to head to different events, te them, challenge the best of the best, and then take on Ryo, the man who disrespected you after your first race.

I think its a good game but i didnt like the idea of orginised street racing. Thats what street racing's about anyway, unorginised, on the streets. I also think its too hard and the tracks are quite shitty
