    Default No More Rice in NFS Games

    They seem to have wised up and dropped the ricer image of their prior games. This IMO will do what NFSU did when it first came out. I recommend you watch the interview video.

    May 31, 2007 - The new Need for Speed is here: Pro Street.

    Don't get confused. This isn't like other EA Street titles with over-the-top arcade slam dunks and impossible maneuvers. This is Pro Street. In fact, EA did the exact opposite and created an entire new genre of racer: the street racing simulation. "The Fast and the Furious" meets Forza.

    Well, don't tell that to producer Michael Mann. His team at EA Black Box, responsible for NFS: Most Wanted, wants to distance Pro Street as far away from "The Fast and the Furious" as possible. Pro Street isn't about a glowing, fluorescent purple underbelly to your car. Pro Street is 100 percent about performance and the culture of street racing.

    And if you didn't know, street racing happens to be illegal. To accommodate, professional race tracks are opening their doors to street racers in unheard of numbers. Pro Street will feature real world locations like Sears Point Raceway (now Infineon Raceway) near Sonoma, Calif. While EA wouldn't go into detail on the other tracks, it did say that you can expect a number of "iconic locations" in Asia, Europe and the States.

    most likely.

    EA milks their games for all they're worth, so i'm guessing they'll capitalize on all the gaming systems, as usual.

    I just hope this doesnt turn intoa juiced game or that old SFS Racing game(the one wher you spent all your money on fixing your car). Becuase from what they say so far sound slike they might be on target for one of the best street racing sims out there!
