With PSP ports being obviously inferior to the main versions in gameplay and graphics, it is very important how well they're able to convey the general style and spirit of the game.
I've never been a huge fan of ProStreet, as I prefer Underground-Carbon and the subsequent Undercover, but I always appreciated what it went for. Most of its greater qualities though are very subtle. And that subtlety is completely lost in this port. I do like what they did with graphics, but that's about it.
That's not to say the other NFS titles on PSP are great games, but at least some of them they carry over the excellent presentation of the original. With ProStreet already being one of my less favorite entries, I see very little value in this port. Even though it's not such a bad game in vacuum.
