I know this is Hitman forum but i just heard that EA is devoleping new Need For Speed ProStreet.I played all Need For Speed from Underground to Carbon.What you think what is gonna be this year NFSPR?

[Bafford]

well, "most wanted" was the best one. carbon was just utter crap.
and with prostreet most likely not having free roam, IMO its gonna be crap as well.

[TrAnE]

I think it will have free roam becuase of police.But is gonna be stupid if you not driving in street.

Underground 3

stuff Carbon

I miss the old NfS before Underground even though it sort of revitalised the series, it went all urban and lost the wanker-y aspect of running away from the police in fast cars.

I may check the new one out anyway though, just because I crave any driving game after discovering PGR3.

i sure hope so, coz the official website makes it sound like semi-nascar with "racing tracks around the world". nothing about free roam and good old street racing.

[MrMagic]

Removing free roam would be taking 10 steps back. I'm pretty sure free roam will still be there.

Talk for yourself.


Buying stock regular cars and tuning them > Buying exotics and leave them stock.

Porsche Unleashed was the best of the series, everything else pales

Speaking of Autoscuplt... It sucked balls on Carbon.

[TrAnE]

I like the way the threadstarter says he's played ALL the NFS from underground to carbon!

What about Hot Pursuit 1? What about Road Challenge??

CLassics! Classics I tell you.

Also, carbon sucks balls. The best ones were underground 1 and most wanted (of the tuner series that is)

If they get rid of free roam and tuning they're shooting themselves in the foot.

I wanted to play Porsche unleashed and Hot Pursuit but i couldnt find them anywhere.

What story is gonna be in this NFS?

wots the difference of Porsche Unleashed and Porsche Challenge?

just wondering.....

[MrMagic]

Two different games?

[Riprie]

I hope they bring back the neon lights.

[Pulp]

Yay another shitty urban racing game.

[Henrick]

i'm probably going to buy/download it even if it is shit. Something about the need for speed games just draws me in, i never seem to get really bored with them. Favorite nfs game would have to be either Road and track SE, or porsche unleashed.

[stüart]

The free-roam in it sucked, thats why I liked Underground one the best. Seriously, I bought the game to race, not to fanny about driving around a city to the race places, it was damn boring. Tuning was ok though, shame the body kits all looked worse than the original car.

[Terror Risk]

I liked NFS2. with the tracks that had traps an shit.

I miss it.
