Obviously the next step was to have a massive ruck online, with roadblocks and EMPs going everywhere, and Hot Pursuit allowed that to happen with ease.
This proved so exciting that my colleagues and I were soon swapping times at work, with photographic evidence being needed to prove the claim and bragging rights. I remember my very first time in loading Need for Speed Hot Pursuit up, instantly being blown away by the sheer speed of the game as I blazed through the countryside as a police car in the Interceptor mode, which tasked you with getting to a certain place in a tight time scale. The gameplay was fast and massively furious, with racers and cops trying to outdo each other unlocking new cars and more gadgets as progress was made.

My overriding memories of the drift races were that the handling model was a mess, however, and that impression still lives with me now, as the counter steering seemed to be counter intuitive (see what I did there?).ĭrag racing was fun though, what with the need to warm the tires and so on, but ultimately whilst ProStreet wasn’t necessarily a bad game, it just wasn’t a good NFS game. A drift car needed to be set up very differently to a drag car, for instance, and this level of realism actually attracted me at first. With different disciplines to compete in, including Drift, Drag and Grip racing and Speed Challenges, the hook was that one car couldn’t be good at everything. With all the events taking place on closed circuits, the free roam element was removed, and made for a much tighter experience.

In an attempt to make the series feel a little more legitimate, and possibly to remove the stigma attached to the series’ connotations of Midnight Club racing, ProStreet saw us take on the world of professional motorsport.
