Need for Speed: Pro Street

Wooo!
PC and Xbox 360 demos out!

What does everyone think about this game? I just played the demo and it's awesome. It looks really nice, even with some stuff turned on low, and it runs really smoothly on my system.
It feels a LOT different from Carbon, that's for sure. Although when I plugged in my 360 controller, it felt a lot easier to drive and was a bit more responsive...

I'll try it out I guess on 360...I hadn't played carbon, the last one was most wanted...

Hopefully there is actually something new in this game

Carbon was so terrible, but from the looks of it pro street will make up for it!

edit*: just played the demo, It met all of my expectations, the new physics are amazing!

Carbon was all right...not completely terrible, but it was a step up from Most Wanted.
Although I LOVED the adjustments you could make to your car, performance-wise, on Underground 2. Hopefully they have a system like that, combined with Autosculpt for visuals, with things that don't make your car look like automatic crap.

I tried it on my 360 the day it came out. Which was a few days ago -- maybe even a week ago.

Although, I didn't like it at all. I felt like the control was as stiff as Gran Turismo games and the camera was waaaaay away from the car.

However, the graphics were amazing.

I think if I had a controller i'd try it. I tried Carbon out awhile ago, but I just hate playing racing games without a controller ( the only good thing for a controller ;oP)

My controller would be useful for beating your face in for saying such blasphemy

It does? Last I heard, they said it was just closed course racing...no cops.

Yeah, I'm pretty sure this title doesn't have cops in it. Downloading the demo now.

Yea this one doesn't, but I was talking about previous NFS games.

It's pretty cool. I like the way it looks inside the tunnel in the GT-R race. Also didn't like how the camera starts so far away from the car though. But, like shadowkhas said just had to push a button and problem solved.

The question is: Did you receive bacon?

I've never liked Need for Speed. They need to stop milking this franchise for every penny it's worth like other games *cough* Tony Hawk.

I'm expecting Tony Hawk series to become much less frequent (that or they'll actually be innovative coz of competition now)... Especially with them realising just how much money they've made from GH3...

Played it a few days ago, it was okay. I think I like Carbon and Most Wanted more, though.

Tony Hawk Pro Skater 2 + Need for Speed 2 = all I need.
