Advantages: Super Graphics, Best Customisation Yet!, Canyon Duels Disadvantages: Too Short, Poor Soundtrack, Annoying Format and Voice Overs
...can you say about the Need For Speed series on the Playstation 2 other than it gives by far and away the best racing experience out of all the other racing games. After playing the first, Need for Speed Underground, i have always bought the new installments as soon as they have come out and the games just keep on getting better. Need For Speed Carbon was however, in my opinion a disappointment and i would like to share why this was the case.
The ... ...all similar to the other Need For Speed games. As in Most Wanted you can also get chased by the police if they catch you speeding or being a reckless driver.
This all sounds very familiar to the other games so what is up with it for me to give it a poor score? Firstly and perhaps most importantly for me was the fact that unlike other Need For Speed games the soundtrack included in this one was very poor. Over the years i have found many new and ...

Advantages: Exceptional FMV sequences, loads of customization and a good solid core gameplay Disadvantages: Frustrating boss battles and much weaker police chases
...among you who have played need for speed most wanted will know the story, but for those who haven't here is a quick overview of the ending:
Most wanted ended with you recovering your stolen car from sgt. Cross and bailing out of the city, while sgt. Cross is hot on your tail.
Now, carbon picks up where most wanted finished off. You are making your way to Palmont city when Cross (now a bounty hunter) finally catches up with you and totals your ... ...you, your old friend Darius catches up with you and pays Cross off. Now you have to try and take over turf in Palmont, but it seems you have a history in the town… (I won't ruin the plot for you now, as it would ruin your gaming experience).
Wile most wanted had you racing the most notorious racers in Rockport to climb up the blacklist, Carbon is all about taking over turf. Palmont city is divided into 4 main territories each controlled by a crew. ...

Advantages: Quite addictive Disadvantages: Too short, one annoyingly difficult race
Need for speed carbon is a great street racing game. It is not the best of the need for speed collection, however it is very good as the graphics are excellent and the music choice is ok. One thing need for speed carbon does have is autosculpt which is a revolutionary way of sculpting your car in various ways, if you know how to use it as it is very difficult, annoying and frustrating. The overall game is quite good as the police are still chasing ... ...need for speed most wanted. The idea of carbon is to choose a tier of car whether it be muscle, tuner or exotic, and then win races and take over other peoples territory and therefore dominating the map. There are four "bosses", Angie, Kenji, Wolf and Darius. Darius is the leader of the whole map and controls every aspect of races, money and cars. Kenji is the leader of the tuner cars, Angie is the leader of the muscle cars and Wolf is the leader ...

Advantages: Great graphics, really good fun Disadvantages: Short Lifespan
...has ever been in the Need for Speed series. Everything about the game is so fluid, and smooth, it is sometimes hard to believe that you are playing on a current- gen console!!!
Graphics
The graphics, are as I like to put it "Truly Beans!" If you don't understand my lingo, this means that the graphics are absolutely amazing!!! The graphics really look like that they are being played on a Next Gen console, and if they can get the graphics this good ... ...Need For Speed game on the PS3 or the Xbox 360.
Sound
This is where the game is let down. I really think that when the game is first switched on, it really sounds good, but after a few hours of play, it really becomes repetetive. And also, during a race, if you scrape a wall or barrier gently, it sounds like you have just had a head on collision with another car, I just don't understand why!!!
Lifespan
I think that the game is too short in this ...

Advantages: Good story mode Disadvantages: Too short
This is my first review, so any pointers on making my next review better would be very much appreciated, many thanks in advance.
Well were do i start, hmmm lets see, i thinks il start with the graffics because after all its what makes the NFS games the best racing games out there. Even though the graffics in all the NFS games are absolutly brillant even back to NFS 1, NFS Carbon is by far the best, there smooth, fast, no glitch's and the FMV scenes ... ...as far as to say the people look 100% real. Iv played the game for PS2, PC and just recently Xbox 360, dont even get me started on the Xbox 360 version because it is phenominal and the online mode is excellent.
The whole point to the story mode in the game is to take over different territory's throughout the City, and as always unlocking new cars and new parts as you go along. I dont really want to say to much about the story of the game because ...
