Avis sur le produitNeed for Speed: Carbon (Microsoft Xbox, 2006)

Need for Speed Carbon

I would class this game as a must play although Need for Speed Carbon isn’t that different when compared to Underground or Most Wanted. It draws the two games’ elements together while adding a few new features. The graphical improvements are minor but welcome, such as the improved speed blurring which is more of a defined speed blur now. The musical tracks don’t quite live up to the same standard as the other games in the series as they’re quite easily forgettable, but on the upside there has been major improvements to the sounds of the car engines and the other racing sound effects. Likewise, the addition of crew members talking to you during the race can be both helpful and informative; if you haven’t already played Need for Speed Underground 2 and Most Wanted then give them a try; Underground 1 isn’t quite up to the same level and you aren’t missing much by skipping it. This isn’t a difficult game by any means, but it is good fun. The storyline is predictable, the FMVs can be annoying after a while, the new content is limited and the game could have been longer, but the good points of having a crew, the continuation of the quality of gameplay and the improved graphics and physics make it a good game. This game is sure to please die hard fans and new players alike, but may be a disappointing to those who expect a completely new game or much of a change from previous ventures.Lire l'avis complet...

Not as good as NFS Most Wanted - Still good though

NFS Carbon has its good points (3 styles of cars: Tuner, Exotic and Muscle) but it lacks some of the game points that NFS Most Wanted brought to the table. There are no real penalties for losing races, it's easy to elude the cops and it's very hard to earn any "extra" money for buying additional cars. Once you've won a race you have the option to run it again but it'll only be worth $500 if you win, this makes it tough to bankroll cash.

The graphics are very nice but it would be better if some of the races were during the daylight hours install of "all dark, all the time". Career mode goes by much quicker than in NFS Most Wanted, I played last night for about 4 hours and I've alread completed about 20% of my career.

Good game, just lacks a little of the character in Most Wanted. Still worth buying but expect for the novelty to wear off quick.Lire l'avis complet...

Great Racing Game

This is another one of those Electronic Arts Need for Speed Releases. This game has nice story, the videos in there are excellent quality. The only thing is that the graphics are not as good as expected. It is actually less graphic then the previous release. The cars in there are nice and hooked up. Races and handling are great. Great Game, Recommended!Lire l'avis complet...

A healthy blend from the last three NFS that kicks butt

After playing the last three Need for Speed games (Underground 1 & 2 & Most Wanted) they took the best aspects and blended it into a fun and challanging title. I played it on the original Xbox and the graphics are alrigth. But the game play is the part that I enjoy the most. It's responisve and unique. The drift part of the game is different than underground 1 & 2 but makes for a more realist play. Overall, it's hard yet yielding a great sense of accomploisment after each race.Lire l'avis complet...

Could have been better, but not bad.

The whole new driving engine seemed like your car was lagging behind whenever you omved the joystick, but for drifting it was great. If you wanted to stop playing but the AI "challenged your territory" then you must race agaisnt them, instead of leaving. This got really annoying after awhile because if you didnt challenege them they won the race automatically and you would lose your territory. The graphics were as expected, good quality for the xbox but in no way measuring up to the 360. All in all a good game, but its not enitrely worth the price. Save your money, snag the xbox 360, then choose a different game.Lire l'avis complet...

Game Disk Stopped Reading

Game worked up until it would no longer read the disk on one specific race over and over again. Got another copy from a nearby game store and passed it without a freeze.

Need for Speed Carbon

Excellent game for people who love to trick out your cars. Body kits, turbo, nitrous, neon, goes on and on as far as upgrades. Great racing game, not so realistic as far as driving, but a great game and not one that you can beat in just a few hours. 5 Stars in my book. I loved and still play the game today and i've owned it for years now. Bought this one as a gift for my nephew.Lire l'avis complet...

Need for Speed carbon xbox

Great arcade racing style game at a good price. Graphics are the best compared to NFS most wanted & underground. But it has it's limits when it comes to customizing your car. Exhaust notes are accurate & good; not like gran turismo (where all the cars even V8s sound like 4 cylinder hondas).Lire l'avis complet...

even your girlfriend will want to play this game ;x

great graphics, music and multiplayer game.... one of the best games in the need for speed series. even though this game is from 2006 the graphics looks crisp. the music is very techno club oriented and all the different modes keep this game interesting... especially all of the customizations you can do to your ride.Lire l'avis complet...
