When mediocre is mixed with vanilla, it produces Carbon on the DS

Another bummer is the online multiplayer (or lack thereof). The only way to play against your friends is to go DS-to-DS (either download or 4-way), so unless you've got some buddies with the game in tow, there's no online action to be had. Why, oh why, no wi-fi?

So while Carbon won't necessarily offend your street racing senses, it's won't knock your socks off either. One thing's for sure - it beats the hell out of last year's Most Wanted DS title, but since that's not saying much at all, we say take another pass this time around.

  • Lengthy campaign
You'll hate
  • Lame crash animations
  • Awful, repetitive blaring music
  • Convoluted story line
