Epic fail
 Reviewed by Scott on October 15th, 2008
There was absolutley nothing I enjoyed about this game.. AT ALL.
Nothing like what I would expect from a game in the NFS series.
I wish I had rented this first... it was so boring
Boring

I really regret buying this game. I've only played it once and I don't want to play it again.
Disappointing
 Reviewed by Josiah from Gisborne, NZ on December 8th, 2007
The game is alright nice graphics on the cars but that's really it's only high point in my eyes.
Story - Not much of a story you play Ryan Cooper (made very clear by the annoying announcers at every event, Turn the voice sound off if you have anger issues) Your character where’s a helmet and you only ever see him if you win a big race day. You’re trying to be race king by beating some slow idiot.
Drag - Pretty plain, easy and short not much skill is really required (just for shifting). Basically faster car wins. Having to heat you tires before every race just gets annoying over time. (ive clocked better times with poor burnouts)
Drift - Pretty decent, nice smoke. Nothing to challenge Canyon drifting.
Grip - Easy, all you need is good breaking and turning ability, a fast take off and a car that gets through gears flawlessly and you cant lose. Taking NFS of the streets was a bad idea the fun thing about NFS is that it's illegal racing and police will be a factor + traffic. 2 big obstacles in previous titles taken away.
Speed Challenge's - Love em but still not challenging and lame air.
Wheelie Comps - WASTE OF TIME!
Wait for Burnout Paridise or Midnight Club LA

NFS???
Reviewed by Richard from Auckland, NZ on November 23rd, 2007
The gameplay in ProStreet although can be fun is repetetive. What really got me is the fact that the trailer shows two cars drifting side by side. So far I haven't come across any race where you can do this. After starting career mode I was anticipating great drifting only to find you don't actually get to drift in the first few teirs. Its all Grip and Drag races (for at least a few hours of playing).
The control of the cars is poor. A rear wheel drive does not drive like a RWD. I have come into many corners expecting to make it only the find the turning circle of my 180SX is like a Mac truck, forcing me into a wall. Although it is a "Grip" race you'd expect to be able to drift/powerslide the corners like in the previous NFS's unfortunately it a no-show in this one.
I haven't yet figured out how to upgrade any of my cars. This seems way too confusing.
A blueprint theme has been enforced yet when ever I win parts for the life of me I can't find how to install them. This should have been simplified.
The drifting in this game is very realistic and the smoke system does work well with it. The handling for Drift races has been done very well. And the graphics are well done. The car detailing is very smooth either in the show room and on the track. I did notice though a very poor framerate. So poor you can actually time your blinking with it.
Bad things aside this is an average game probably best played when are hung-over out of you mind on a Sat/sun Arvo or if you have just bought a PS3 and this is your only game.

Looks & Sounds Great
 Reviewed by Mark from Palmerston North, NZ on August 20th, 2007
BUT... Will it be? Carbon was ment to be awesome, i found it boring and tedious, Not to mention it only takes a day or two of playtime to finish carbon, NFS Most Wanted was better, being set in the daytime.
But it does get 5 Stars from me in advance anyway, because the graphics are bound to be great, and they tend to get the sounds of the cars right.
