Awesome

This is seriously one of the best games for mac. The graphics are pretty amazing, considering it was made in 2006. Also it works with my logitech controller so thats a plus.
For all u people saying it doesn't work with leopard, I don't know what you're doing, because it works just fine on my imac.

Very Fun

Written by LD from Mississauga

Great, fun game. Lots of so called "missions," places to explore, near countless races to compete in, and plenty of cars and subsequent modifications for said car options. Runs very well (and looks good) on my Mac mini (Early 2009 with Geforce 9400 graphics) once the graphic settings are optimized.

Excellent Game!

I love this game! I have it for my Nintendo Wii and now for my Macbook. The graphics are great, the only problem is that sometimes when i go to exit the program, after I select yes i would like to quit, it freezes. It only happened twice out of 7 times or so but that is the only thing that i would look into. If you like Need for Speed games, then definitely look into buying this one!

EA has come out with many need for speed games but this is the best yet. with hundreds of races to do and lots of cars to choose from, you'll be engaged into the game for hours at a time. plus the short videos in between the races are clearer than ever, its hard to tell if they're real or not. this game is sure to entertain anyone.

Great Racing Game for the Mac

Written by TS from Rittman

Sep 23, 2008

I found this game to be awesome, I was so exited when i found it for mac. Since I've changed over from PC I assumed i would lose the gaming functionality of my mac but not so!

Other people seem to have had problems, but I'm running a Macbook Pro 2.4 with 2 gb of ram and 10.5.5 and have had no problems with it doing anything strange. It heats up the computer a little bit but that is about all. Other than that I love it!

Can't wait for the next NFS installment...

After 10.5.5 screen goes to blank

Written by MH from TAMPERE

Worked very well with 10.5.4 but after 10.5.5 upgrade screen goes to black when games starts. Game runs as "blind"

No support available from Apple or EA. Nice :(

Need for Speed Carbon

Slow and Choppy

Written by KC from Los Angeles

Jun 26, 2008

This game was a bit of a disappointment. After I installed this behemoth of a game (about 5+ gigs) on my brand new Macbook Pro, I began racing immediately using the game's modest default settings. I expected the gameplay to be fluid and responsive, what with the 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and the NVidia 8600M GT supplying the power, but to my disappointment, no, it was still sluggish and even choppy at times.

The default settings were 640x480 resolution and low detail. Should be nothing for my Macbook Pro, right? Wrong. My Macbook Pro still struggled. And as expected, raising the graphics settings yielded poorer performance.

I guess I'll have to wait until Feral Interactive's Total Immersion Racing becomes Universal Binary before I can race again. By the way, I'm running Leopard 10.5.3 with 2GB RAM.

Plenty of fun, and seems to work as it should. I'm using Leopard 10.5.2 and an Imac with 8800GS graphics.

Keep your money

Written by BM from Las Vegas

Does not work with OS X 10.5.2. To many things don't work such as scrolling, menus. can't change default keys, etc. Hope EA comes out with a patch soon fixing this flawed game. Also will not let you play online!

Game is not so bad!!!!

Written by CH

The issue I've experienced with this game is the screen changes from fine, to red glow, then white out then back to fine. This making it very difficult to control the car. One thing I've noticed is on the box the requirements state the following: Video: Nvidia (7300 or better) or ATI (X1600 or better) Note: GMA950 integrated graphics adapter is not supported". After checking my video card, I have the following: ntel GMA 950:

Chipset Model: GMA 950

I guess its not EA's fault for my ignorance or lack of knowledge of my machine before the game was purchased.

The game crashes at the end of every race on my new MacBook Pro. The game is a waste of money for me. There appears to be no support for this game.
