4 out of 5 stars Need for Speed: Carbon   August 13, 2008
I love playing this game, and I have had a copy previously, however it got scratched and I couldn't race anymore. I bought a new copy and it arrived a few days ago. It took me a total of about 10 hours to beat the campaign. Unfortunately this is generally how it works. If you find the right car and you trick it out corretly, the game becomes incredibly easy. Also, if you have it for the Xbox 360 you can download all of the cars and the performance parts. This makes it even easier because you don't have to pay to buy them in the game, nor do you need to wait to unlock them. This made the game a breeze. It helps for online play, but it takes some of the fun out of the game.
I still had an awesome time, and I haven't played all of the races yet, so I still have some time to play. It also has great replay value if you start a new campaign.
However, the thing I hated most about the game is that when you beat Darius (the last boss), you can't use his car in the campaign. It's a bonus car to be used only in quick races. This made me cry inside.



4 out of 5 stars NFS: Carbon~A fun game!   February 8, 2008

I bought this game for my hubby, but I enjoy it as well. It has lots of great cars, including my favorie classic muscle car, the Chevelle SS. There's plenty of achievements to earn that will keep you busy & interested. I've heard about people having problems with this game malfunctioning, but so far ours has worked fine.

I bought this game, because I previously had it on the XBOX console, so I proceeded to buy this for the 360 console, and it looks way better, really love it.


5 out of 5 stars Love It...   January 9, 2008

i love the open-endedness of choosing a car, customizing it the way you like it and just driving around a realistic city, down city streets, across highways...this is one of those games you can just pick up and drive without worrying about the storyline. the graphics are EXCELLENT, the driving is realistic...the music fits in with the mood of the city...you can customize your car IN SO MANY WAYSSS...everything about this game is just Perfect....especially for those of us who are Casual car gamers...and dont want to be bothered with gruesome and overly challenging point A to B races. racers come up to you and challenge you in the street and you can just race them for money to buy newer cars.

i personally Love that the game only takes 8 hours to beat and its not insanely difficult and Long. its always odd to me to hear people complain about a game being easy..but when its hard, they complain about that too...or when its too long, they get mad about it. stop complaining and just enjoy the game for what it is: a casual and cool driving experience.

i personally didnt like Most Wanted at all...but i also recommend NFS:UG2 for the original xbox. Carbon is a definate recomendation...and the Best game in the series. Thank You EA Sports.

I've played all the NFS games and this one is ok. I liked Most wanted better but I don't regret purchasing Carbon, I really miss the intricate tuning of NFSU2. I like the team concept applied. Buy this game if you like the NFSU2, Most Wanted. Why not? You've already come as far as reading reviews about the gane. Just buy it and you can write your own review! I'm not going to ramble on about my personal opinion or preferences.
