I liked this game. I don't like uber realistic car racing games like the gran turismo thing, not really my bag.

If you haven't played, its good, but only good for about a weeks worth of casual gaming. You could probably get it finished in about a weekend if you worked out hard on it. Around 8/9 hours.

Good cars, fun cars (more importantly) decent new additions to an old title and again a nice little city with some variety (though not as much as previous games) to race around in.


I really enjoyed the muscle car choice in this one, but I didn't like that they took out a lot of the aesthetic mods, and I thought that some of the characters were really annoying to the point where I'd want to send them off a cliff on the canyon races instead of just trying to take them over.

Not a bad game but fucking short. You do about 20 races and its all over.

"OOOOH THAT'S GOOD! YOU GAWTS TEH LEEEED!" (repeat about 30 times each race)

Sometimes I want Samsom to smack into a concrete divider at max speed.

Yeah, the team members were fairly annoying, especially because you couldn't force the women to lez out.

I'm stuck at the first boss race, that chick with the Camaro I think.

Basically, at the beginning, she accelerates to 1000mph and gets a mile infront of me and I can never catch up. So I stopped playing. I gave my copy of NFS: Most Wanted to my little neighbor, I might do the same with this pos. In the last 4 games they made, Carbon is the one I dislike the less.

Gfg.

Starting with the Camaro is a bit hard but once you learn how to use it it's about as good as the other two starter cars, until you get to that Angie bitch, then it becomes one hell of a challenge. The tuner is the best and can pretty much take on all of the races at the start but it's almost necessary to get Kenji's car or one of the other types since tuners seem to struggle in passing or keeping their lead. I have to say though, when you get to the Viper and the Corvette and properly set either of them up, you can pretty much blow past any canyon match at the start. Makes them feel utterly badass until you slam into a curve or off the edge of the canyon.
