    A decent follow-up to Need For Speed: Most Wanted. 0

    Despite a lot of negative opinions floating around about Need for Speed Carbon, I decided to pick up the game to check it out for myself. That was a decision I won't soon regret. Onto the Gameplay. The customization is great; there is a very large number of parts and accessories to customize your car with. It seems to be second only to Midnight Club: Dub Edition in this aspect. I was also very pleased to see more cars in Carbon than in Most Wanted. Many people disliked the cut scenes in Carbon...

    Great Storyline! 0

    Game play: Need For Speed Carbon is a new game with new cars and you also meet new people. Sergent Cross is back with is corvette and he is the same old crazy person even know in most wanted he scratched your car but now he lost is job as a cop. You have a large map and you beat the boss's in the canyon. And the cops are back in this game i think the pursuits are well made and the new autosculpt is fun. What i hate about the xbox version is that there's no xbox live and that's why you wont spend...

    NFS Carbon is a turn in the right direction for the NFS series 0

    Need for Speed Carbon is a great follow to NFS Most Wanted on the 360, becuase it gives you hours of fun and enlass possibilities, but it's also a very easy game. The gameplay is decent, with the only flaws being with the cars and driving style. Sometimes, when going through shortcuts or pursuit breakers, your car gets slowed down by a gate you knocked you, garbage an, etc. when usually it should keep on going at the same speed, or in some instances slow down one or two mph. Also, I don't like h...

    A slick and stylish racing game. A perfect addition to any racing 0

    As being a new person to the Need for Speed series. I can't say if this is the best or worst game in the series. But I can say this game is completely awesome! The story goes as yourself returning to your local city, only to find it overrun by different car gangs, split up by car type. And what you have to do is reclaim the city block-by-block for yourself. You start by picking your car class. Tuners, who have great handling, but poor speed. Muscles, who have great acceleration, but poor handlin...

    Great game if you like most wanted this game will be satisfying 0

    Gameplay Nfs carbon looks a bit like nfs most wanted because carbon has the same cop cars and same pursuit music but this version is not to avoid just because you played most wanted because this game is better instead of having stricked blacklist rules you just race in the hole map until you get the attention from the ``boss racer``. These bosse`s will challenge you in the city then in the canyon the canyon is a racing duel and you try to get more points to beat your adversary the races are fun ...

    A shorter, streamlined version of Most Wanted 0

    Need for Speed: Carbon continues essentially right where Most Wanted left off, with most of the core mechanics staying pretty much the same. The biggest changes in Carbon aren't so much what it adds, but what it removes. The police chases which have been a large part in Most Wanted and were a required part of the game, are now only a random occurence that can be triggered randomly while racing. There is no longer a need to actively seek out police chases, destroy a given number of police cars, h...
