Scirwode Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I have just fetched my copy of Need For Speed:Carbon Collector's Edition from the shop. This might very well be the best NFS in the series as I've just noticed that it has Challenge Series similar to Most Wanted :woot: . I've already installed as I'm in Starbucks at the moment so it's time to find out about it. Here are two images of the box cover and the game disk for you to enjoy (or not :shifty: ).

d3nuo Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 i hope its really good.. i didnt even bother with the demo coz of all the issues people were having.. but i do hope that is just something with the demo and that the full final is a lot better coz i'd really like to add Carbon to my collection :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOC Veteran Posted October 31, 2006 Veteran Share Posted October 31, 2006 Damn, lucky you mate. I don't remember when it comes out here in the US, but I sure enjoyed the demo alot for PC. I know people complained about how the handling was horrible and it sucked etc, but I liked it. Always room for a nice non-super-realism-sim racing game I always say!

Chosen One Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 I hope the game is actually better then the demo, demo totally sucked..it is more then just driving styles we dont like...stupid blurryness,people have issues witht he game lagging even when we have highend systems, This game I will not be wasting $59.99 on. Already wasted that on BF2142. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.MULLA Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 if u dont mind me asking- how big is the dvd in gb size on this collectors edition? eg(file total) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scirwode Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 The demo pales in comparison to the full game. The storyline is really, really intriguing - from the start you're asking questions on Nikki, Darius and Cross. It has the movies where it's a combination of real people and the game but the characters are also rendered in 3D. In the online mode, you can become a cop (finally :woot: !) and the way it handles is pretty intriguing. I let you all find out for yourself ;) . There is also quite a lot of new content. For one thing, you can choose your crew. You start out with Neville but you can have a maximum of 3 and can fire them if you don't like them. There are also cop chases and the interface is a bit different than Most Wanted. You can also choose a logo for your new crew, similar to TFK, 21's Street and Bushido. You can even change the colours of the logo to suit your needs though I haven't found out how, I'll get back to you on that. The graphics in the Demo were bad. In the full game, it's much better. My graphic card isn't that good and I haven't yet found a sweet spot in there yet but when I do, I show you a screenshot. Oh, and Elite_graphix, the DVD size is 3.25 GB.

Scirwode Posted October 31, 2006 Author Share Posted October 31, 2006 is there a free-Roam similar to underground 2 and MW? Or is it similar to Underground 1? You can roam the city like Most Wanted but as I've only started playing the game, I haven't yet found out much. One thing I miss is that there is no button to look back. Instead, you have to rely on the rearview mirror so I am a bit peeved at that. You can only be cop in online mode ? That's what the loading screen says :p .

RGSPro Posted October 31, 2006 Share Posted October 31, 2006 The last good need for Speed was High Stakes, and kind-of hot pursuit 2. After that they just lost their European-super car feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
