When EA disappoints gamers, they sure do go all out. Need For Speed: ProStreet is already available for PC, PS2, PS3, 360, DS and Wii. Too bad it was mediocre, at best, on every single one of them.

Now that same sense of disappointment is coming to the PSP. Ummm…yay?

Find out what is different about the PSP version after the jump!

Scoring between a pathetic 61 from MetaCritic on the Wii and peaking with a 74 on the DS, to say this game is shoddy is like saying Jack Thompson “kinda” hates video games. What the hell happened to the great NFS games of the past?

What could EA possibly throw at gamers to make them play this tripe on their PSP? Their answer to that question seems to be the addition of two new game features, the Driver Persona and Driver Intuition. The Driver Personas apparently allow you to customize a race’s difficulty level to your skill set. The Driver Intuition feature guides you around the track, showing you the best course to take.

Basically, not only will you be playing a boring, same old same old racing game, now you won’t even need to think as you cruise around. How exactly is this supposed to wow gamers? It still looks to be the same advertisement infested, repetitive, bad voice acted, piece of junk that appeared on the other platforms.

Seriously, gamers would be better off making a go-cart out of milk cartons to get their racing fix than play this title. I went with a neighbor to trade-in his PS3 copy of the game, but we were told by an EB Clerk they had already accepted too many. I guess we are all going to have to wait until God of War comes out before developers realize PSP gamers expect quality titles too.
