Are we the regular xbox player going to be left out of this new Need For Speed: Pro Street. I sure hope not. I am very addicted to the game. I was just wondering if anyone knew if they were only making it for xbox 360 and leaving xbox users out. thanks.

But yet they have it on Playstation 2? Stupid if you ask me.

Playstation 2's predecessor didnt do so well, so they had to get Sony in it somehow

i just wont buy it on the ps2 due to lack of good physics, graphics and online.

im not sure what that black and gold car is, doesn't look much like a 350z, but i wonder if the integra type r will make it in, it is shown with that cool looking bodykit from underground.

Yabol · Post by **Yabol** » 07 Jun 2007, 21:36

It doesn't look like 350z for me... Its rear seems to be longer imo.

ahmad0410 · Post by **ahmad0410** » 07 Jun 2007, 21:41

Lol.. i thought it was obivous that was a 350Z. Maybe its with a widebody kit.

And also there's skyline shown on the bottom of page 2 along with the RX-7.

BTW.. those buildings and drawings on page 1. One is Infineon, the other one, is it Daikoku Futo? Seems like a street track to me.

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 07 Jun 2007, 22:10

added the integra type r to the unofficial list.

Porsche-AG · Post by **Porsche-AG** » 08 Jun 2007, 00:51

There's also an in-view picture of a newer Porsche. And in that same picture, you can see a Porsche 997 in the background (in black). I'm guessing that they'll at least have a Porsche 997 GT3 in the game

2furio · Post by **2furio** » 08 Jun 2007, 03:43

Not so fast, EA is known for using sounds from one car for totally different models.

yeh, that drawing is a 350z, then you can see the clay of a cg integra, on the 2nd page, there's a inside view with a porsche and a lemans car(you can see it through the porsche's opened door), in the bottom of the page there's the R34 and the RX7 .. on the 1st page at the top there's a RX7 sketch

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 08 Jun 2007, 21:32

i wish they would have showed the screen more

This is all you can see from the game in the video interview.

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 08 Jun 2007, 23:27

Yes it is.

Fishwhiz · Post by **Fishwhiz** » 09 Jun 2007, 03:50

sorry for being obvious, thats just all i could see.

D00MST3R · Post by **D00MST3R** » 09 Jun 2007, 04:44

what the hack... everything is secret with this they're boiling the crowd, look how it would sell when it going to be launch in the market!

yeah! well it looks like they borrow some new artist and animators in the NFSps project!
I think NFSps website have begin to business everyone is heading to site for updates!!?

ahmad0410 · Post by **ahmad0410** » 09 Jun 2007, 05:12

It's all about time. 4-5 months is still a long period of time where they can release more info's about this.

People are heading to the NFS site for updates because of all the hype and impatient attitude.

D00MST3R · Post by **D00MST3R** » 09 Jun 2007, 05:48

yeah you're right!

EA is just making this one too much real world. They should give some drift and drag racing.
But what ever there are some city in the world where underground racing is goin'on.

People are crazy about realism like crashes, physics, and handling not that they giving us... but only we can hope that they could change our thoughts about previous title.
The strategy is that they are taking us far from the underground so then after some year it will be a change. when they will make another underground episode.

They are. Whilst information is sketchy, we've been told that drift racing will use the same physics engine as grip racing, and that drag racing will be much closer to traditional drag racing than it has been in any other NFS title to date.
