    I was getting tired of the underground racing formula... the success of "Underground" spawned a direct sequel (Underground 2, with story...ha), and then cops were added in "Most Wanted" and then I got frustrated with "Carbon". I wanted something new. I wanted the NFS franchise to be redefined. And it did. With NFS ProStreet. Graphics are photo-realistic. Gameplay is terrific (car handling is ultra realistic, and then damage effect... wow). Sound effects are as good as a racing game can get. Replay value is there if you persevere to "perfect" your racing style... and the Controls in this game are easy. Overall, this game impressed me. It is the best racing game ever made for the Xbox 360. I play the game like 3-4 hours everyday (before jumping into Halo 3.. he he). For NFS fans who want change... this is it. For those who still love underground racing (and free-roam), you might as well keep playing "Carbon". Hey... I'm off to play this game right now...… Expand

    Yes it's different to the underground series, so what! I think this is a welcome change and maybe even one of the most enjoyable racing games out. The critics can be so harsh sometimes and I bet if EA decided to stay with the "underground" series then everyone would’ve criticized them for being boring and out of ideas. Thanks EA for another great installment.

    Kurdt F.....you are a complete idiot!! How can you give this a 0? I think it is a brave direction for the NFS series to take, it is exciting, compelling....and...wait for it......NEW! I really hate it when people say...'well, it's nothing like the other games in the series'.....isn't that called evolution??? Try playing series games from the perspective that it is the first one you have played....and as far as you are concerned Kurdt F....get another TV or Monitor as it is very clear that you have a terrible one or you can't set the one you have got up properly!!… Expand

    Easily broken for cash in the battle machines during career but still a solid game. Low ratings about going legal show how young some gamers are as they've only played from the underground series till now. The cars are done well and having damage come through in NFS really requires you to think about how your driving instead of playing a fast paced, colorful version of pinball like a lot of other racing games. Also the king difficulty can really be a challenge to those expecting to be able to tear around off the track and still win… Expand

    It's like I'm not even playing the same game as most of the reviewers. ProStreet is NFS all grown up. The racing and physics modeling is more sophisticated, the user modifications are more meaningful, and the online componant is profound. The over-the-top announcers and the slightly sluggish feel of the early low powered cars are the only blemishes I notice in this game. This is the NFS game I've been waiting for since my first love, NFS:HS… Expand

    How on earth can anyone like this drastic change. NFS was one of a kind with blur vision, police chases and a great fast paced arcade feel. I really think EA in general this year has been shocking, apart from skate which I have not seen, I really think they have gone backwards. The action is slow, and repetitive, the visuals and the modifications give it a 4 out of 10. I have played about 3 hours of this and that is where it will stay. They are trying to copy Forza, PGR, but too little too late. What a waste of money.… Expand

    Fantastic game, If you like more a real SIM and you are less interested in a mindless arcade clearly ProStreet is the best NFS to date. There is not space for arcade, is like Forza MS, a real driving simulator. In ProStreet you cant turn a 30Mph curve if you go above 50Mph... and If you go at 70 or above be sure you will exit the circuit or crash against the wall... If you like SIM this is the best NFS to date.… Expand

    I dont know why most people apparently dont like this game. I've re-played this game numerous times just to choose different cars to see if i can win with them. And the drag racing alone is worth its weight in gold! Where else can u drag a stock car and upgrade it and see your times get better and better? I love GRID and Forza 2 in one way and ProStreet in another. Its different than straight circut racing type, the best racing game i own!!!… Expand

    These reviewers are out to lunch! NFS has redefined the racing game. PGR, Forza, GT - these are sterile by-the-numbers racers. ProStreet is trying something different - smoke, announcers, rivals, that's what it's all about.

    This game is terrible. If it was just crap graphics (forza 2) it could be forgiven. If it were just the poor framerate, I guess I could overlook it - if the gameplay was any good. But it's not. It's a dull racer that *might* have looked good on the xbox, but that looks really sad here on the 360. I think that NFS is suffering an identity crisis: it isn't an arcade racer, and it surely isn't a sim. The environments are jaggy and terrible looking... I am sorry, I have nothing positive to say about this title. I wish I did, as I just forked over $60 to EA. It's just a forgettable title amongst giants. Buy PGR4 and hope for something better to come along. One more thing: don't buy it unless you are on live. Many cars cannot be purchased unless you have MS points. And I wiish I was on live, b/c then I might have had a chance to demo this piece of garbage.… Expand

    I have played many racing games before, and this one did not impress. That doesn't mean the game is bad though. The controls are a little slow, and the great feeling you get when you race along the road at high speeds isn't really there. I can't completely bash this game though, the cars are great and the environment is pretty interesting also. Overall this game deserves about a 6, in my opinion.

    The outstanding online gameplay is just one item on a long list of reasons to play ProStreet. The great visuals, solid racing mechanics, lengthy career mode and customization options help make this one of the most deep and enjoyable racing titles around.

    It feels more sophisticated, looks great, delivers tons of cars and racing disciplines, and upgrades what was already a solid online component. But far more critical, it's one of the best drives on the 360.

    Sure, it moves fast, and the online options deliver a sweet community aspect, but the 1/4-mile drag events suck, the game at times looks jaggier than a shark's mouth and the drab presentation denies it much needed personality. It's a decent racer, but not sexy enough to rev our engines.
