Need For Speed: Carbon

This is so good i love this, i prefer this over prostreet anyday as that let me down its not even on the street so how can it be called that anyway yes this is really good adition to the series and the canyon duels are also cool but if your a nfs fan buy it !

I have never been a big fann of the NFS series, so upon getting Carbon I was thoroughly surprised to find that it has taken up most of my spare time the past two weeks.
The gameplay is great, its an arcade style racer with alot of depth and customization options. The cars handle well and you never really feel like you are not in control of your car. As you progress through the carear mode you unlock different parts for your cars, from performance modifiers to decals.
Accessability, Anyone can play this game, as I write this my wife, who is not much of a gamer, is playing it and doing well.

A great game for newcomers to the NFS series but enough depth for veterans aswell.

Looking at other reviews given it looks like I'm in the minority here but I didn't really enjoy Carbon and for me it was a real let down. I loved NFSMW and spent in excess of 60 hours playing it so it was superb value for money and Carbon had alot to live upto. First of all, I much prefer playing MW in the light rather than Carbon where the game is always played in the dark, but that's just me. I liked the "canyon" runs, I thought it was good to see something abit different and it worked.
My main complaint is that the game is just too short and easy, it only took around 9-10 hours to complete which compared to Most Wanted was a major let down and there's only 3 main bosses to beat and then that's it (on single player campaign). I didn't like the "autosculpt" feature, but that again could just be me.
Basically I much, much prefered Most Wanted and really can't understand why Carbon has such fantastic reviews, I honestly think it's an average racer which may have been good 2 years ago but now that there's so many good titles out there, this just doesn't make the standard. I had high hopes but the game did't deliver.

such a good game i would give it a 5 star all the way must buy it may have been out for a while but it still a good game. defanlty buy this 5*****.

i like this game but why does the only colour that goes on this game is purple
