Recently, the head of EA Risitello John (John Riccitiello) made a sharp criticism of EA Vancouver and the recent Need For Speed: Pro Street. He thought that was reached as a result the game was not very good. Perhaps it is too influenced by short term development, limited to 12 months. Manager assures that since then the situation has improved considerably.

In the near future (2009 year) Electronic Arts produces Need For Speed: Undercover. The project will be equipped with a very rigid structure of missions, which makes it a bit like a feature film The Transporter. Risitello (Riccitiello) liked this version, so that we can hope for the emergence of truly standing Productions.
