Gamespot NFS: Pro Street E3 Coverage
E3 is underway and gamespot has some updates on Need For Speed Pro Street.
Visually, the big story about ProStreet is the smoke. When you burn rubber in ProStreet, the smoke looks absolutely amazing. It circles around the tires realistically and, most importantly, it lingers. If you burn out long enough, the smoke will start to impede even the cockpit view, and the smoke diffuses everything you're trying to see. It's a very neat effect that makes spinning doughnuts pretty exciting. Of course, how often you'll actually be able to get loose while trying to win races remains to be seen.
On top of all this is an improved artificial intelligence system that reacts to your actions and gives each racer its own personality. Racers will make mistakes and display different levels of aggression. We're looking forward to seeing how all this comes together when the game ships to stores later this year.

"If you burn out long enough, the smoke will start to impede even the cockpit view, and the smoke diffuses everything you're trying to see"
Yes, YES I DID! W00T!
"Racers will make mistakes and display different levels of aggression."
Squadra Corsa Alfa Romeo (SCAR) and EvolutionGT had those features two years ago.
BMW!!! I cant wait for this game!
I wanna see if I can paint it up likt the M3 from MW. Still the smoke is so great that u can blind some1 with it and send them in a wall. I also wanna get a corvette and paint it up like cross's and say "guess who's back."
Nice smoke and crashes, this game is gonna be sweet.
Now this is more like it!

The AI,
Like my Scouts in NFS C, Hope they won't get crazy f***in boosts and hope they WON'T be reckless. I hope also they maintain FAIR play.
After having a look at the vid I think this would not be so fun after all that drag thing is boring i hope there will be some trickie corner here
