News from N4G Oct 4, 2006
You can be forgiven for cynically thinking "Another year, another Need for Speed." Frankly, that's what we thought when the latest title in the series was announced. After all, the damn good Most Wanted just came out a year ago, so what could Carbon possibly offer so soon afterwards that would get our motors runnin'? It turns out that the answer comes in two parts. First off is the Wingman - not the buddy who'll sit with your hot date's ugly girlfriend at the bar - but a crazy fool who for ...

Cliff-edge racing with next-gen Need for Speed

First, the bad news. Though Carbon's array of autos looks fantastically smooth in 360's mega-sharp hi-def, the rest of Need for Speed's world hasn't been given the same quality finish. The city track we raced was an uninspired experience, with lazy turns and a dull-looking ...   » Read Full Need for Speed Carbon preview

Welcome to lead foot paradise, where all your car-mod dreams come true
Jul 14, 2006
At EA's recent Studio Showcase 06, we got a glimpse of the future of one of the most popular racing franchises in gaming history (next to Gran Turismo, of course). The tricked-out racing rides of Need For Speed are back and even more customizable than ever - with hyper-tense, high stakes tracks to match. To start, EA has added a new feature called Auto Sculpt that blows the doors off of the term "vehicle customization." Instead of simply strapping on pre-formed after-market parts to your sleek ...   » Read Full Need for Speed Carbon preview
