:Read the announcement, it's ProStreet. REDWOOD CITY, Calif. - May 31, 2007 - Electronic Arts Inc. (NASDAQ:ERTS) announced today that the blockbuster Need for Speed™ franchise is introducing a new version that drives the series in a new direction. Need for Speed™ ProStreet is a ground-breaking Need for Speed experience where you're thrust to compete head to head against the best street racers in a multitude of racing showdowns. The game is being developed by EA Black Box in Vancouver, B.C., and is slated to ship this fall. --MrStalker talk 08:44, 1 June 2007 (UTC)

text: So any confirmations about 31.10.2007? If no, it going to be removed. Elk Salmon 22:14, 5 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oh well, as it turns out the official release date actually is 31 October, for the american market. Europe is still November 07. The American trailer and website have been changed since launch, but the European (UK) hasn't. This should have been mentioned and discussed on this talk page before reverting, which this user failed to do. Hence he or she has failed to follow the guidelines of Wikipedia which was shown to the user, multiple times, on the user's talk page. --MrStalker talk 22:26, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Official cover? 

message: Does anyone at EA actually know what Pro Street means in the context of street racing? From what I've seen so far, none of the in-game cars are Pro Street cars. Pro Street is defined as a street-legal version of a Pro Mod drag car.. ie RWD, narrowed rear axle to accomodate huge rear-wheel tubs (I mean huge- Mickey Thompson 33x21 in. tyres), large V8 etc, often running 8 sec and under quarter-mile times. It'd be interesting to see if the Camaro etc in the game are actually true Pro Street cars; I'd be pleasantly surprised if they were.--Truetillbrew 21:20, 5 July 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I'm fully aware what the header says, but the above post was made here specifically to avoid adding such comment to the main article. The product title is a very important part of the product, and may possibly be construed as misleading. I may add any instance of further discussion in this context to the main article if required, but would rather it remained here.--Truetillbrew 14:20, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nobody here knows what somebody at EA does or does not know. You will have to ask them the get an answer on that. If I would guess, I'd say the title ProStreet refers to Professional Street-racing, and has nothing whatsoever to do with Pro Mod cars. --MrStalker talk 14:30, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Pro Street is a style of street racing car- that's my point. This is a street racing game of the same name. Hence the not-unreasonable question.--Truetillbrew 15:41, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps, but most people don't even know what a Pro Mod/Pro Street car is. But this has nothing to to with the article itself. If one wants to know what cars there will be in the game one just got to take a look at the included carlist, it speaks it's clear language and there is no confusion. Regarding the use of a title that conflicts with a car type, you'll have to take it with EA representatives in the official forums. --MrStalker talk 18:49, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

message: in the past NFS the camera or the views were about 5 , whit no cockpit view
in NFS:PS the views will be basically the same , except for the hood view (it will be slightly to the left rather than central) AND (not verified) a kind of 360° view around the car , as in GTA: San Andreas. I only saw this in a vid on gametrailers (E3 2007 Developer Walkthrough , at 1:48) http://www.gametrailers.com/player/21919.html . I haven't tried the demo yet , does anyone know if there's gonna be this kind of view ?

message: The new ProStreet will also feature an advanced damage system, which will directly impact on your car's performance, unlike previous Need for Speed titles. This is especially significant in the Speed racing mode, as you can easily "total" your car.
There actually was a Damage system very like this in Need for Speed: Porsche Unleashed (Porsche 2000 in Europe)

message: [...] all racing in ProStreet takes place on closed tracks, thus making it the first game in the series not animating illegal racing behaviour, as a result there aren't any police in the game.
This is just wrong, there were NFS games before ProStreet without any police in them - Porsche Unleashed for example. Stealthbg (talk) 05:19, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Porsche Unleashed factory driver mode included "delivery" events, that included traffic and cops, but the cops could only interfere with a players car, not stop or ticket the car. Jeffareid (talk) 14:08, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

message: There is a diffrence in the wii version and xbox or whatever version this information came from
  Grip Class races take 8 racers and divide them into two even groups. The racers are placed into the groups based on their vehicles performance potential. Group A starts about 10 seconds ahead of group B, both groups race on the same course but are only competing against the 3 drivers in their group. 
 In the wii version there are no groups. The race starts at the same time for all 8 cars. No matter what your proformance you alwasy start in last, making it very difficult if you start with a fast excellerating car because all the other cars tend to bunch up untill the first turn.
