AddSubDie, "shtreet" racing sims, DIE!

The Fast and the Furious culture has killed the racing sims, although Test Drive Unlimited was a breath of fresh air. Eh, there is always the NFS modding community, although it aint what it used to be.

it has even effed up streetracing too ..

I knew this was too good to be true...

And tbh.. the Fast and the Furious culture rules!

fast andnthe furious brought up a whole new generation of ricers with big wings and neons ... NAWZZZZZ

So, the demo will be released!
12am pacific time. weeee!

//EDIT Demo will be delayed till 9th of november, because the installation-file is damaged - what a bad joke... one of the biggest game developer needs a week to fix a broken install-file, sounds more like a pointless excuse...

Thank you Electronic ARTS...

The company that can't DO ANYTHING right....

WTF, broken installation file?! Even stupid americans won`t fall for that bullcrap :laugh::banghead::wtf::mad::eek::shadedshu

I wouldn't put it past them that it actually is broken, EA breaks everything...

And come on, it's EA, they take a week to fix the simplest of things.

yea, that is disappointing. now-a days you just have to figure that whatever any of these companies says about the release of a game add atleast 2-3 weeks.

I'm installing demo right now.check various mirrors for file.......gotta go!;)

so psot teh link

agreed.

vaperstylzI'm installing demo right now.check various mirrors for file.......gotta go!;)

Dah, How you gonna tell us that your installing the demo and not give us a link to the download?:confused:

edit: w00t!

I have the demo on my PS3 and the graphics don't impress too much. Now I'm thinkin of canceling my preorder for the PS3 version and buying the PC version.

Game sucks balls, GFX are joke for today's games, gameplay is so boring i literally found myself falling to sleep at the wheel, which in this games case, ain't a bad thing. Its basically another EA unoptimised direct console to PC port, don't feed them your cash, this is just more crap, generic pish.:banghead:

i dont like the name pro street seems too plain but surely the game wont be plain

They actually released it :D
great news, telling everybody the installation file is broken. this was actually true, but for the EU demo - seperate EU-Demo?! wtf... who cares, dling now.

1280x1024 all maxed (except shadown medium) and some anistropic action.

Gamershell ftw!

God I hope they don't ever turn into another vileplanet.

EDIT:

Well, the UI is leaving a lot to be desired, especially with the irony of the message that encourages people to stop 'street racing,' but then proceeds to show you a cinematic of street racing :)

The controls are awful, standard, has a clutch (though doesn't require it..pointless) and extremely jerky/sensitive.

Visuals, not bad, best thing was probably the updated smoke and damage of cars.


The two lap race on the small circut was much better than the desert run.



5/10 from me. Looks like it's shaping up to be another 'underground' and I just can't face that again.

its ok i suppose, crow, did you actually try turning the graphics up?

and the desert track reminded me of the original nfs on ps1 + 3do

its up on the newsgroups too and the GH link is slow slow slow :D

Damn I woulda got this if I knew it was out.
