- General NFS, All Versions
First up, we have a new Producers blog at Need For Speed.com, this time it is written by Mike Upton, and is titled AAA-Synchronous.
Mike describes the nostalgic ways of old arcade-machine from his childhood and its relation to the modern Online Asynchronous Race-Events we will have in Need for Speed ProStreet.
excerpt from article.
I remember pretty clearly living in Markham, Ontario, and going with my brother to the local pizza place to pop a few quarters in to the Asteroids machine. The place was one of those budget pizza joints, cheap slices of grease-dripping goodness of nothing more than cheap cheese and cheap pepperoni. The carpet was shag, and it ran up the walls of the place. And tucked into a cramp corner at the back entrance, next to the john, were the coin ops and a lineup of the local kids, quarters at the ready.

Its actually quite a nice read, I suggest you take a Look.
Next, we have 20 new screenshots posted in the ScreenShot Section, I'd highly advice you to check them out, there are alot of sweet rides, as well as some great action shots, all provided kindly by our Friends at IGN.
and Last but not least.
there are currently 3 new videos posted at gametrailers.com
These Videos include:
"Hatchback Havok" - A two-lap Grip Race on the Nevada Desert Course in a Volkswagon
"Round the Corners" - A three-lap Grip Race.
and
"Tire Fire" - Two Rounds Of Drag racing with Front Wheel Drive cars.
The Embedded video below is "Tire Fire".
I hope you enjoy the new updates, and remember your Community leaders are heading to Vancouver once again in 5 days for one last Community Day before Pro Street is released. Any last minute questions should be asked in the ProStreet forums Titled under the 'Community Day #3 Questions' by whomever makes the thread first.
without further ado, here is the Tire Fire Gameplay Video.

Although I suppose you'd need a Monster PC or a PS3 for it to look as nice as it does in the trailers.
I have to be picky about one detail though: the tiresmoke effects during the VW Golf Race seemed a bit too much; braking or sliding in corners seems to produce such massive smoke clouds that you'd think the cars have blown their engines.
But I'm still eagerly awaiting the demo.
