It has been a little over three months since Need for Speed ProStreet hit consoles, and now it has finally made its way to the PlayStation Portable. Sort of. The only thing the two versions have in common is their name. The PSP incarnation, unfortunately, is an uninteresting mishmash of stale events, dodgy controls, and bland presentation. How the driving aids are supposed to help you when they make it harder to see the road is anyone s guess. For starters, ProStreet is light on game modes.

I do like fast cars, but I don t get into all of the engine horsepower, calibers, or any of that other gearhead mumbo-jumbo.
