THE GOOD: Engine sounds are still big beefy roars Cool box-art The name Need for speed Prostreet is an anagram of Deed ReefersTHE BAD: Car models Car physics Controls are somewhat awkward and clunky So many freaking advertisements! The back of the box has some of the biggest lies ever written. Over hyped.
SUMMARY: Firstly I would like to say right off the bat, that this is indeed one of the worst racing games ever made. But before I point out all the flaws I'd like to say that the cars in the game still have great engine sounds.. But that?s where the all the goodness stops sadly. Need for speed Pro Street tries (and fails miserably) To use the remote in a fun and intuitive manner that will draw you into an amazing world of gorgeous cars and high stakes races.. This is not the case at all. The remote is turned sideways and the 1 and 2 buttons are used to Brake and accelerate respectively. While this may sound somewhat bearable it is in fact quite frustrating considering that the slightest twitch of the Wii remote sends you and your car careening into a wall (And out of the race).Car models look like really early ps2 graphics and the supposed "most advanced damage modeling In a NFS game ever!" (on the back of the box) Looks really, truly terrible. Were you annoyed by the ridiculous amount of advertising in the previous games in the series? Then you may as well Go buy McDonald's, Burger king, Mountain dew and New rims and tires because nothing has changed in this installment (Its actually quite worse). It really is astounding how many companies and products they attempt to get you to purchase in this title. It's a racing game, I get it! In reality cars and race tracks are sponsored by different corporations...THAT DOESN'T MEAN IT HAS TO BE IN A GAME! Seriously, if I wanted Mcdonald's I'd go outside and buy some! But perhaps the most annoying thing about this game is the car physics and handling.. A simple way to put how terrible the physics are is to say that the BMW E90 (one of the best cars in the game) handles like my Mums 1989 Suzuki Swift that was owned by my best friend's older sister (and even she got it second hand) And has cigarette burns everywhere.. Overall I would rather shoot myself in the face with an arrow dipped in Hiv/AIDS than pay the full $100 (Australian) for this steaming pile of filthy garbage. The only reason I even had this game is because it came with my Wii console deal and it was $10 bucks cheaper than the regular package. |
