need for speed carbon


Movies and TV shows have spawned some pretty weird fashion trends. Just ask your mom about her Annie Hall clothes. Sure, she'll deny it but they're somewhere at the back of her closet. Then there's your Dad's Miami Vice pastel wardrobe. It's the one he wore with his five o' clock shadow. If your folks used to turn to the big and small screens for fashion cues, guess where you will be looking? In your video games!

EA and fashion street wear brand 55DSL are teaming up to create fashion wear inspired by the upcoming Need for Speed Carbon (out this November). The game will feature characters wearing clothes and items designed by 55DDSL exclusively for the game. They didn't say what kind of street wear will be available for fashion-conscious gamers but you can get them only through local EA events and pre-order campaigns.

Andrea Rosso, creative director of 55DSL says, "I'm a gamer and I'm going to play this game for sure so to see characters wearing our exclusively designed t-shirts and other items, is really amazing for me." According to EA, wearing the NDS: Carbon clothes will bring players closer to the action.

"According to EA, wearing the NDS: Carbon clothes will bring players closer to the action."



it should read "According to EA, wearing the NDS: Carbon clothes will bring us closer to players wallets" lol.

God anyone can make their own t-shirt for free and legally if they don't sell it. It's called iron-on transfers. How "CooL" can these clothes be? Not very IMO.

» How?

How exactly does wearing this *****e bring us closer to the action?

It's a GAME people, and nothing more. If the clothes are cool, I'd buy 'em anyway, not because they're linked to the game (in fact, if anything it'll DETER me from buying them as the last thing I want is to be seen and though of as being one of those idiots who would wear it to be "closer to the action").
