4 out of 5 stars Good game   January 1, 2008
 0 out of 1 found this review helpful

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.

This game is very addicting. By winning races, you take control of the city one block at a time. Customizing your dream car is only part of the fun, there are endless possibilities. This is a must have for racing fans. Perfect gift for the holidays.


4 out of 5 stars I wish the Fast and the Furious had never happened.   October 29, 2007

The racing aspect of the game was fun, but the story was absolutely horrible. It was the lamest thing I have ever seen. The cars were great (especially the Challenger), and the driving was close to realistic. It's an overall fun game. If you like racing games and modifying some cool cars, then this is a great buy.


2 out of 5 stars Not the best of the NFS lineup...   October 15, 2007

There are few other games that have the ability to make me as angry as this game.

1. The graphics are fairly decent but very jumpy. The FPS really suck when you are doing the canyon races, especially the drifts, almost to the point of making them impossible to complete perfectly.

2. The game play is somewhat reminiscent of MW and NFS Underground 2, but never quite meets their standards of greatness.

3. The in game physics are, again, a problem as EA has completely ignored the complaints of so many fans and continued to make the cops more powerful than Sherman tanks, while maintaining the lightning fast speed of an F1 race car. Also, the cops abilities to spawn anywhere they please is a little hokey. In addition the invisible walls still continue to be a hassle like in MW.

4. Lastly, EA has this problem of making racing games with auto catchup on computer cars. Add this to the fact that it is almost impossible to open new faster cars in this game and you have the impossible to win races of Carbon. And I breezed through MW, Pursuit 2 and Underground 2.

- The fact is, this game wouldn't be worth the plastic and foil it was burned into if it didn't have a pretty extensive and fun set of non career accomplishments that allowed you to open new parts and cars without having you territory "attacked" every 5 seconds. I've played the game for maybe 25 - 30 hours and probably won't ever play it again. As a matter of fact, I'm restarting my career on MW just so I can forget Carbon.
