Need For Speed ProStreet Review (360)

We have just posted our Need For Speed ProStreet review. Find out what Terry Crouch had to say about it.
"I have to give EA a little bit of credit here. It must be a very tough decision to take a proven cash cow franchise like Need for Speed and change its direction. Taking the series that has become well known as a free-roaming, open-ended racing game and turning it into a circuit racer had to have the bean counters at EA nervous, and with good reason—NFS games cater to the largest market available, with the widest audience. When you pigeon hole it into a “legalized” circuit racing scene, you’re going to turn off a lot of people. The flip side is that you’ll find gamers who don’t traditionally enjoy the NFS style of game finding a bit more fun than they’re accustomed to having with the series. I’m definitely the latter. If you’re on the fence, read on."
