Overview

In Need for Speed Carbon, you and your crew must race in an all out war for the city, risking everything to take over your rivals’ neighbourhoods one block at a time. As the police turn up the heat, the battle ultimately shifts to Carbon Canyon, where territories and reputations can be lost on every perilous curve. Featuring exclusive content including three cars, six races, and a bonus DVD, Need for Speed Carbon Collector’s Edition is a must-have for racing fans everywhere.

Check out the Need for Speed Carbon trailer.

Features

  • Exclusive Collector’s Edition content that features three new cars, ten specially tuned cars, six new races, ten exclusive vinyl kits, and a bonus DVD containing behind the scenes footage on the making of the game.
  • All new Canyon Duel and Drift race modes are the ultimate test of skill and nerve, where one wrong turn could cost you more than the race. Race for control of the city block by block by taking down rival crews on their turf, then defeat their crew leaders in life or death races in Carbon Canyon.
  • Customise your dream cars with the revolutionary new Autosculpt car customisation tool; it gives you the power to design and tweak your crew’s cars in every way imaginable.
  • Align with the Tuner, American Muscle, or Exotic car classes and prove once and for all who makes the best set of wheels. A new physics model makes each class handle and drive differently.
  • Build your crew with strategic choices and then use their skills on the road and in the garage to help you dominate races.
  • Race online with your custom Autosculpted car and challenge other live racers from around the world.

      Need Satisfied

      Written by SW from Oxon

      The the first game I bought for my new iMac and the only one I'll need for a while. I completed Career Mode fairly quickly but there are plenty of other challenges to go, not to mention the endless fun of online races.

      Graphics and camera angles are slick, soundtrack is cool (good to see some UK hip-hop featured) and races varied. I got a bit of RSI using the keyboard but it was easy enough. I'm not sure I could have beat the last boss without the controller though.

      4:3?

      The content and graphics are very realistic and everything you want to see in a good driving game but it only plays in 4:3 Aspect Ratio (almost square)?! It's a good thing all of the mac product line since 2003 have had a Widescreen (16:9/16:10)! More

      Needs a patch

      Written by SB from NORWICH

      15-Jan-2008

      I am running the game on a MacBook Pro with Leopard and the game runs smoothly except the sound glitches (which is annoying) I have read that other people have found this problem. Also the game is not widescreen (4:3 only). More
