Electronic Arts announced today that the release date of Need for Speed Carbon will be November 10, 2006, on all consoles (the complete list of platforms below). Developed by EA Black Box in Vancouver, British Columbia, Need for Speed Carbon is EA's next game in the series that will combine Underground and Most Wanted gameplay. The game will be available for the 360, PS3, PS2, Xbox, GameCube, DS, PSP, GBA and PC.

This the first time a Need for Speed game is set in an actual city or location from the real world - Carbon Canyon in California. Another unique thing about this game compared to the other games in the series is that your teammates will have unique characteristics and will help you bring those pesky enemies off the road. All their skills will be very important during the canyon races, especially ramming them off the road.

This story sucks? This story rocks!

Ever since they turned it to the absolutely horrendous idea of "street tuning" the series went to hell. I'm sorry, but I'd rather race cars that don't look like crap. All this crap with body kits and spoilers, etc. etc. etc. just ruins the game. The cars look horrible that way.

Bring back the old Need for Speed.

Fully agree there.

# #10 and #11 — Guest 2006-07-18 12:08

yea in the last couple of NFS series i have never changed anything visually aside from changing colours...(plain colours no those hot wheel colours)

Need for Speed: "Carbon" is a "Carbon Copy" of Need for Speed: Underground

# location? — Guest 2006-07-18 12:27

does this take place in carbon cayon, as in the one next to la cambra and brea?? i live there!!! that'll be crazy!!!

# #10 AND #11 AND #12 — Guest 2006-07-18 12:54

YES I KINDA AGREE WITH YOU THERE......BUT I THINK THEY HAD TO ADD VISUALS TO MAKE THE GAME GO BY ITS NAME "UNDERGROUND"

# still waiting — Guest 2006-07-18 13:14

for the next installment in the midnight club series. to me thats the best of all underground racers.

# At #16 — Guest 2006-07-18 13:17

That's because it's made by Rockstar.

# night shots — Guest 2006-07-18 13:19

is the game going to take place only at night? all have the screenshots so far have been, but i hope thats not the case.

# @#17 — Guest 2006-07-18 16:09

lol. looks like rockstar is better than ea.

# i know what i was saying — Guest 2006-07-18 17:44

the origin nfs-underground was the best out of the underground series but after rockstar came out with dub edition i was sold i never bought any thing nfs from EA again, so like i said am going to wait for rockstars MC.

ps: i feel what you said ruben cause you thought that i meant that ea makes midnight club. ma'bad for the confussion.

# MC series yeah good stuff — Guest 2006-07-18 18:07

nfs was ****ing boring before underground which stepped it up a bit and underground 2 was lame and mw was really better in most things minus the customizing crap selection but other than that it was really enjoyable so i hope carbon lives up to it and surpasses it.

# Wicked Games — Guest 2006-07-18 19:40

I think it was amazing bring the tuning bit into it and the underground series jsut made it bettter.

mw wasa crappy let down and rivals was better. but i hope carbon makes it alot better

# Can't wait — Guest 2006-07-18 20:28

Can't wait to download this ISO!!!

I LOVe ISO's!!!! never buy anything anymore whahah1!!!

# More "Underground"? — gamer007 2006-07-18 20:45

Another Underground-esque NFS? Sigh, when will it end.

I think I'll dig up my old copy of Hot Pursuit to see how the old times were.

# wowsers... — nanoware 2006-07-19 01:47

i swear EA freaks me the hell out with the amount of systems they support! Come on pretty much every platform is getting this game, imagine how many people they have on payroll to make a single game, its nutz!

# :^) — Guest 2006-07-31 03:44

that's cool!!!

# Guest 2006-08-20 06:37

NFS carbon is gonna own

# carbon — Guest 2006-10-20 11:50

oh hell naaaw!! underground 2 and most wanted were waaay better than the original underground. This game is going to be better than underground also.

# carbon — Guest 2006-10-20 11:51
