Wow its the umpteenth Need For Speed game...MEH

Seriously though they pump out this franchise at a rate nearly one per year, talk about milking a franchise.

After last NFS I haven't even tried the demo for NFS Pro Street.
My first reaction when read the news about a leaked version was "who gives a shit".
So much potential, so much crap.

I try and demand more than a mere updated sequel. What seperates this iteration from the several before it aside form minorly better graphics?

well its certainly not a warez forum. however it is a game discussion forum and as long as there arent links posted or discussion on how to get software illegally there are no rules being broken. bit of a grey area here, and while I agree in the fact we dont want "leaked" or "get it on warez now!" threads popping up everywhere, I don't want to vet every word from the forum or it gets oppressive really fast... you should be all old enough and ugly enough (I know I am, check the avatar)

Game all maxed out 8xaa16xaf plays great, performance has improved since the demo release...

there is a slight hitching when driving like little minor stutters here and there but of the first track i tryed it works great...

i have a problem though being this game is an arcady ect i tryed to use my 360 controller and it seems to be having the same problem that the demo had... where by my cars are pulling to the left for some reason

its like the calibration is off ingame and needs fixed.

You know Virus, for a guy that doesn't download warez games you sure post a lot about them

I wouldn't even use the term "leaked" as all games get released to warez (regardless of platform) sometimes it's before release date sometimes after. Leaked, to me, implies an unusual early release or a stolen copy like Half Life 2.

I wasn't trying to be ugly. Just giving my 2¢. There was another thread just the other day stating that Crysis had leaked. Not the type of content I expect to see on my favorite site.

I believe if a major game is leaked it news worthy for this site, but if a game is just available as warez, I don't see the point announcing it here. All major releases are available at some point.

Its called *freedom of speech*
Driver heaven is a *Community Board*

If you dont like some of the content then dont post in the contents thread.

You have got to remember man that threads on these boards and any board on the net for that matter there is going to be threads that some people like or somepeople find informative or funny or rude or down right annoying but no one on the planet can find any board that is completely to there tastes.

everyone in the world doesnt just have the same tastes. lol

Look...Warez is a part of everyday computerlife. You can't ignore it. As long as there are no actual laws broken here, why not have a little discussion about it? It's the part of "ze intarnetz".

Anyways....I heard that Pro Street was pretty bad. I went over to a friend's place who had it already and I tried it. Totally uninspired, awfully full of commercials and to be honest...very sucky. A lot of graphical glitches and some bugs in gameplay. I wont be getting that myself.

Perhaps the title of this thread was meant to warn you about it.
Like, to stay away from this game etc.
