Need for Speed Carbon

Domain Name Com's - : Need for Speed Carbon


  

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fast & Furious 360
While so many people are more interested in the newer systems that are sold out, Playstation 3, and the Nintendo Wii, there is still a lot of action for Xbox 360 gamers, and holiday shoppers. That has also been said well with the Need For Speed franchise too. Since. they've started to thrive going back to the Underground series, many gamers have always wanted more. Last year, the Most Wanted edition of Need For Speed took gamers by surprise, by delivering the thrills of the race, with the pursuits of cops by the chase. Now, a new chapter has risen for Xbox 360 owners, but can it definitely deliver like before?

Need For Speed Carbon for the Xbox 360, tackles the fast and the furious as you battle your way to tackle your way through street racers and crew gang members, inorder to conquer the city with your crew. In the game you have many great and gripping tracks too from classics like the circuits, sprints, and the return of the drift race tracks from the Underground 2 era. You can also unlock great cars like the Didge Viper, exoticas like the McLaren, and muscles cars that have classic style and classic appeal. The graphics for the game have really shined and are truly polished with each control of the car. The control also brings ut the best with each car, and each bit of the chase. Sadly, though there are a couple of disadvantages to the game. One of them is the thrill of the chase against the police. It was more challenging back in Most Wanted, and there was more to challenge your cars with. Another disadvantage is that if you've played earlier versions of Need For Speed, you might have a too easy time beating the underground racers Darius and his crew.

All in all, I was mostly satisfied with Need For Speed Carbon, but I was just expecting a bit more excitement with each thrilling race. Nevertheless, I really recommend this as a must buy for Xbox 360 owners of all kinds, especially if you don't want to get yourself swept in the dust.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Fun but nothing new
Pros:
Awesome graphics (at least for next gen systems)
Long tracks to drive through
tons of events to play through
controls very well
Great car modifications and details for the 'underground' fans
Online play works pretty decent

cons:
You have to pay to unlock additional cars
Lame cutscenes
Nothing too different from other games in the frachise





Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Fun and Exciting
I for one absolutly enjoyed the canyon races. The fact that you can actually fall off the clif forces you to concentrate and not use the guard rails as a bumper. It was a nice touch of realism. The graphics look top notch as far as the cars go and thats mainly what you look at. The environments arnt exactly 360 capable but they arnt ugly, and when your going 120 who cares?

The game is super fun, the real time video acting is a definate plus, i thought it was a great story.



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - This Need for speed title let me down
First of all, I loved the past couple Need for speed titles, I bought this one the day it retailed just because the previous games were impressive. I started playing this game and it made me regret buying it. [...]. to start off with, the crew is an alright idea, except on the race wars races when there are 4 other crews with 4 other people and you are by yourself. Next, The was the races are set up, You can control a crew and then when you win a race after you have an area controlled an attacking crew will attack you, its an alright idea but close to the game when you control almost the entire map it gets annoying to have an attacking crew come in. As for the cars, lots of muscle cars, the cars are a definate plus, but all of the good cars that I was used to from the previous Need for speed games, (Toyota Supra, Mitsibishi Evolution, to name a few) these cars are unlocked at the end of the game when you cant even use them because all of these space ship looking cars the extremely fast cars are all that you are racing. so the cars have some negative and positive elements. The worst part of the game, the canyon races, not sure if this game was modeled around the recent Fast and the Furious Tokyo Drift, but drifting down down in a canyon where you can fall off the edge, why would you put something like that in a game? I can only hope the people that design the next Need For Speed game read this and know that carbon sucks... Take the SUV's from Underground 2 and add a few more besides the escalade and navigator and put more cars in and work in a story something like most wanted, but leave the canyon racing falling off the edge crap out.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Its Need For Speed. Remember this. Its never gonna be GT or Forza!
Gameplay: 8.4
Every car handles differently, every course is linked together in one massive world, and the controls will take you back to the days of arcade racers like Daytona USA. (Actual arcade racers - the ones with $5,000 cabinets all arcade owners dreaded purchasing.) The customization features are a little shallow, and the game is a little easy. Okay, a lot easy. But you'll love the ride while it lasts, and you're going to want to play through this racer more than once.

Graphics: 8
The cars look amazing. Every part of them is packed with realistic detail. Even the interiors are noticeably accurate. The cars reflect the city lights quite beautifully, and will do so differently depending on the type of finish that's been applied (chrome, matte, etc.).

Carbon's environments aren't nearly as memorable. The backgrounds aren't that far beyond what was possible with the old Xbox. Also, the cars, as gorgeous as they are, cannot be damaged. They can crash repeatedly, and abolish generic police vehicles. But your vehicles - which are from licensed manufacturers - are as protected as those in Gran Turismo, save for a few scratches every now and then (that magically disappear after every race).

I know that this is what most, not all, automakers want. But if some manufacturers are on board and others are not, maybe it's the supportive companies you should be focusing on - to give the gamer the most intense experience possible.

Sound: 7.9
Hurray for the return of full-motion video! First you get to see the actors, who look toward the camera when talking to the player's character as if you were actually in the story. The actors also appear in polygon form, with extreme realism to boot. Their polygon expressions are a little better than their real expressions, mainly due to the real actors' lack of believability.

The voices - they're better than most, but have a hint of "video game syndrome." It looks like a bunch of actors were hired to be in a video game. It doesn't look or sound like they were hired to be in a professionally written story. Which isn't too surprising. Carbon's characters only have one theme: "take my city and I'll hate you forever" (an exaggerated but truthful interpretation).

Difficulty: Easy/Medium
Most Career mode races can be won on the first try. The external challenge mode provides additional races to conquer, but they're not enough to boost this game's difficulty.

Concept: 7.5
It's Need For Speed all over again. I'm not about to be one of those crazy people who say the series needs an overhaul to be great again. It doesn't. I love the direction the developers have taken. That said, it's not an original direction, just one of polish. But this series is meant to be a certain way. To make it original again would likely eliminate all the things we love.

Multiplayer: 8
Four for co-op; eight for multiplayer via Xbox Live. Some of the Career mode races are playable online as well for added challenges.

Overall: 8.2
A throwback to the good old, worry-free days of arcade racing. This is the kind of game you'll play after seeing The Fast and the Furious (or any other street racing flick). You might hate that series - you might think the third Furious is the worst movie ever made. But mark my words, if you're flipping through and it's on TV, you will drop the remote, grab your 360 controller, and play this game.
