Need for Speed: Carbon is the latest installment in the Need for Speed series, and also borrowing the same engine as its predecessor. It was first shown in EA’s montage at Nintendo’s E³ 2006 conference and booth and was the cover story in the Game Informer magazine issue of July 2006. Carbon is the first in the Need for Speed series to be released for all next-generation consoles. Carbon features a selection of cars from its predecessors; with some omissions as well, but also incorporating many new additions including the Audi Le Mans Quattro, the Chrysler 300C SRT 8, Chevrolet’s Chevelle SS and the Toyota MR2.

You and your crew must race in an all-out war for the city, risking everything to take over your rivals' neighborhoods one block at a time. As the police turn up the heat, the battle shifts to Carbon Canyon, where territories and reputations can be lost on every perilous curve.
