Story:
Need For Speed Carbon picks up right from where the player left off in nfs most wanted. He enters palmont city which is seen ruled by several gangs,player then drives his BMW m3 GTR which he recieved in his Need For Speed Most Wanted. Driving through Carbon Canyon route to Palmont City, a flashback of what seems to be a race against Kenji, Angie, and Wolf comes to the player's mind. A police incident at the end of the race forces the player to make a hasty escape from Palmont. In present day, former Police Sergeant now turned bounty hunter Cross in his Chevrolet Corvette chases the player down the canyon leading to his BMW M3 GTR being totaled. Shortly before Cross can arrest the player, Darius and his crew arrive. Darius compensates Cross, and the player meets up with Nikki, an ex-girlfriend, on bad terms. Now the player beats the three different bosses and finally show off with darius. He then realies that darius was responsible for the player's downfall and defeats him in the final canyon race
Game Play:
The gameplay is based upon rival street racing crews. In career mode, players have to race tracks to conquer territories and face off against bosses to conquer districts.There are four types of Canyon Races: Canyon Duel, Canyon Race, Canyon Checkpoint and Canyon Drift. Canyon Duels consists of two stages. In the first stage the follower gains points contingent on how tight and aggressive he/she can follow the leader. In the second stage the follower takes the lead and loses points depending on how good the first stage leader follows the follower. The follower wins the duel by reaching the finish line with the most points. The leader loses the race if the follower passes the leader for ten seconds. The follower loses the race if he/she falls behind for ten seconds. Either car will lose the race if one falls off the cliff. Checkpoint races works the same way Tollbooth races worked in Most Wanted — players must get from one point to another within the allotted time.
Reception:
PC Format gave it a score of 7.8, saying that it was "engaging enough," but lacked innovation. IGN gave it a 7.9 and 8.2 for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360 versions respectively, out of 10 possible points.Gamespot gave praise for adding more movie clips, customization and solid gameplay but was critical about frustrating boss battles and under utilizing police chases. Wii is also praised for its motion controls but lacks online play.
Rating:7.8/10
