While EA is a powerful company, with a famous name, powerful connections and an oversupply of advertisement funds, it still is unlikely that Need for Speed Pro Street will be saved as a game on the PSP system. The problem with the PSP is that games can not be patched thus there is not much hope for this game.

White in itself, Need for speed is plum packed with content, that content however is ruined by the blur effects of the game. While the cars are rendered beautifully, the only way to take advantage of that is by looking at them in your garage. The second you hit the tracks, the blur takes over. If you are a racing fanatic like me, maybe then this game is worth it. If you are a car collector, this game offers a decent variety, so this game might be fun, but if you are the average Joe looking for a fun game to purchase, then you may want to look elsewhere. This really should be a lesson to future racing games: give us the option to turn settings on or off. By my standards, this is a no-buy; not until it hits the $20 shelf anyhow.

Note: As much as I do not like to or want to compare a PC version of a game with its PSP counterpart, in this case I feel obligated to. When this NFS came out, everybody made a big deal about the new modes: drift and drag race. Well the PSP version does NOT include these game modes. The PSP version also took out over half the vehicles from the PC version; so if you think you're getting the same content on a portable system, you are mistaken.
