Yes!!! This game would be perfect. Aside from Need for speed Most Wanted 2005, NFS Pro Street was my favorite. While it lacked the open world. It had good racing set in organised races, Best of the bunch being the 'High speed'
My reason for wanting this game on GOG is this:
Imagine a Drag race, but it's not the standard, dead straight, quarter of a mile.
No, this is several miles long. A long smooth right turn, hiding a hill that could very well send you flying off the road.
You are franticly strearing a car going some 400 km/h.
Do you break, slow down, and play it safe? Or do you power through, trusting your skill to land back on the road, hoping to god that there aren't a 45 degree turn in hiding.
This is what made Pro Street stand out. The extreme high speed race, that would test your reflexes.
