Product Description

Manufacturer's Description

What starts in the city is settled in the canyons as Need for Speed Carbon immerses you in the world's most dangerous and adrenaline-filled form of street racing. 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. Represent your car class, your crew, and your turf in Need for Speed Carbon, the next revolution in racing games.

Key Features:
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.

The revolutionary new Autosculpt car customisation tool gives you the power to design and tweak your crew's cars in every way imaginable.

Affiliate 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.

Strategically choose your crew members and then use their skills on the road and in the garage to help you win races and customise your cars.

4.0 out of 5 stars Need for Speed Carbon: Own The City, 29 Dec 2006
Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
I decided not to buy any of the previous Need for Speed games on the PSP, simply because they looked rubbish on the back of their box! But I thought I would risk it with this one, and I've been quite happy. Unlike other Need for Speed games, there are a great selection of 'beautiful' cars, unlike the usual 'pimp mobiles,' of which there still are a few for that kind of racer.
The visual is great. The frame rate keeps up to speed without any jolts, which is very handy when you're doing 200+mph down-town! The odd glitch appears where the road vanishes for a second, but this has only happened to me a few times, and I've finished the game.
The good: nice selection of cars. You can customise all your cars. The story line is quite good, and has an interesting suprise for you at the end. The controls are very good for a PSP racer, and it's just great!
Complaints are: it's too easy for keen racing gamers. Your crew members don't drive some of the real nice cars, and occasionally get in your way which is very frustrating.

Here is a list of the cars, for those interested:
Mazda Speed 3
Nissan 240 SX
Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution IX
Chevrolet Cobalt SS
VW Golf GTI
Pontiac Solstice
Mitsubishi Eclipse GT
Pontiac Firebird
Toyota MR2
1967 Ford Mustang
Mazda RX-8
Toyota Supra
Audi TT 3.2 Quattro
Chrysler 300C SRT8
Pontiac GTO
Lotus Elise
Ford Mustang GT
Mazda RX-7
1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GTR
Subaru WRX STI
Nissan 350Z
Aston Martin DB9
Porsche 911 Carrera S
Mercedes-Benz SL65 AMG
Chevrolet Corvette Z06
Ford GT
Porsche Carrera GT
Lamborghini Gallardo
Lamborghini Murcielago

Happy racing!

5.0 out of 5 stars Awesome, 22 Dec 2006

Fun:5.0 out of 5 stars 
Great game, I bought this for the online aspect at the same time as a mate and I have to say it is great fun. As it is EA you can use the same online account that you use for FIFA.

The single player mode is okay but what I have done so far seems a little easy. Online is the clincher for this game. I have never had so much fun on my own!

Buy It!

4.0 out of 5 stars Great game!!!! I loved it, 28 Nov 2007
Fun:4.0 out of 5 stars 
this is the first need for speed game ive ever bought on any console. I dont normally buy racing games because i dont think they are all that fun but this oe was bril!
For a start the choice of cars is pretty good and the actual 'team' racing is so much fun.
I would reccomend this game to anyone as the graphics and sound are good for a psp game and it is just fun in general.

Although i do have one problem. There seems to be a glitch were the road dissappears for a couple of seconds but it doesnt happen very often.

Overall this is a great game. Well worth buying it!
