All I have to say is Uugghh! This game is not what I imagined. If you want a NFS game, buy Most Wanted, not this one. This game didn't have much effort put into it. The graphics are horrible, and most every turn looks the same. The story is mediocre, but most everything else is Uugghh! :( NFS creators put hardly any effort into this one. Once again, get NFS: Most Wanted, or wait for the next version, NFS: Pro Street. This game is a waste of money. It is a pathetic effort by the game designers' part. I am extremely disappointed. I had expected better, way better.
Rating: - Great game for the collection
But is not the best game, I don't like the engaging feature, I don't like the game at all, it seem too easy, and to simple; I dare to say that Need for Speed Underground is a lot better.
Rating: - Good, but not as good as NFS Most Wanted.
This is a good game with a fine concept, but Need for Speed Most Wanted was, in my opinion a much better game. The car selection is complete, the settings are tight. Overall, it's a very good game.
Rating: - Need For Speed Just Gets Better And Better
The "Need For Speed" series just keeps getting better and better with NFS "Carbon".
What a GREAT game. And totally addictive.
Adults and teens love the cars (they've outdone themselves this time with the Ford GT,
Porsche Carrera GT, Lamborghini and Lotus exotics - plus a McLaren Mercedes that will BLOW your mind).
Also includes classic muscle cars and more.
The racing action is excellent, with an clever story line.
If you have small kids, even the youngest gamer can spend hours designing cars - changing paint,
graphics, wheels, body parts, etc.
Truly a game for everyone.
5 ***** stars and HIGHLY recommended.
Rating: - Most wanted is better
Ok where can i start. First off the game is being based on fast n furious drift. So they put the canyon drift IN THERE. Most of the series has still got the same in it. Sprint, drift, speedtrap, circut. And as usual you start out with the slowest cars of the game and work your way up to the top of the carbon canyon. The only problem in the game is that its way too easy. If your new to the need for speed franchise then you would love it how it compares to the FnF movie. But for the Need for speed players it dissapoints. First of all i beat the entire game in about 7 hours. so what i actually did is play the challenges and try to get the reward cars just to make the game longer. Theres only 4 bosses (4 bosses, is this a miniseries?) second of all on the gamecube you still have the mirror on the top to see whats behind, however there is no button to see behind you. To those thats into the speed this relates to the RICER/young age group; the reason im saying this is that on most wanted you feel like your actually doing 200mph where in this game it takes forever to to 200 since there is hardly no straights until the last race with the audi R8 which is on the highway. and most of the things you unlock are bodykit and spoiler parts other than performance parts.
SO the good: The graphics, Carbon racing, the addition of muscle cars, more exotics that you cant get on the other games, autosculpting bodykits, last bosses are 10 times as hard as most wanted.
THE bad: takes less than a day to beat the game, in the races when your way ahead of the computer he will make up the time and pass you in the end of the race no matter how fast your going, your wingman will sometimes get in the way and make you loose, sometimes in the canyon the camera wont move faster than the car so you cant see where your going.
So all in all its a good street racing game. But for the Need for speed fans. Most wanted is 10 times as good
