4 Stars The best 360 racing title for customization purposes…
Arguements can certainly be made as to whether or not Carbon (2006) is less “thrilling” than Most Wanted (2005). You could also argue that the shorter story line and all night time driving leaves Carbon at a disadvantage when compared with Most Wanted. BUT, one thing that simply cannot be argued is that Carbon is superior to Most Wanted in customizations. In fact, I’d go so far as to say it’s the best racing title yet, even here two years and some odd months later. The possiblities of making yourself a unique ride are endless thanks to autosculpt, a system which allows you to modify parts to your exact specs.
To give you an example, one of the first cars you’ll unlock is a mustang gt (bottom tier). Once you have enough cash and unlocks, you can literally take this thing into the garage and customize it for top tier races, and win! The custom paint graph allows you to get just the right shade of pinks, yellows, purples, whatever; And the chrome wheel selection is expansive both in style and sizes (17-21 inches).
When I started playing racing games, I was strictly an Arcade guy. Give me a Burnout or Midnight Club any day and I was happy. But Carbon completely changed my racing habits, and now customization is the first and foremost thing I check for when picking a title.
Unfortunatly, nothing EA, or anyone else for that matter, has done since is quite as good, although Undercover comes pretty close.
EDIT: I’ve yet to play Midnight Club LA, but if it’s more expansive in the customizations than Carbon, I’d be surprised.
4 Stars Very Fun
This is my opinion is the best need for speed game out. Carbon is very fun and very addictive. The only thing that I didn’t like about it was that all the acheivements are very hard to get but the game in general is very fun.
4 Stars Fun but dark
Actually, it is fun drving in the darkness but the graphic I think is not as good as the previous one.
