Quick News - Whilst trawling through the listings at EBGames.com, a place where many games are listed before ever being announced, it was quite pleasing to find that Electronic Arts is apparently bringing its new racer Need for Speed: Carbon to the Nintendo Wii on 1st November, 2006. The date will be a placeholder, but the game's existence is very likely.

Stay tuned for more updates...

BOO! NFS titles are always huge over here, cars are ned heaven.

Plus my brother got the DS version of one, and it was quite possibly the worst game I have ever played. It actually hurt to play Smilie

never played the new NFS:Underground. Is it worth playing? Is it good?
Nevertheless: Another 'hardcore gamer's game'. Good for Wii.

Chavs are just one reason why I despise Sony..(lets not go into the rest for now)...I apoligise if anyone here considers themselves one but....GOD I hate Chavs Smilie

Its basically Sony's main market...well over here in the UK anyway. Perhaps if we finally rid the world of Sony..the chavs will all fuck off with them.

I can't help but agree.
My mental picture of Playstation as a brand is smelly chav/5-10 year old, surrounded by scratched discss and smashed plastic cases, playing the weekly shit-fest release on his sticky controller with a clogged up D-pad. I can't help it, that's just what the PS1 and PS2 (to a slightly lesser extent) are, that is Playstation's core market in the UK.

Smilie ah if I had the stars...

I've been to countless houses with PSs and seen pile upon pile of crappy gamediscs that they picked up in the bargin bin 'cause they were cheap and only played once.

Topic-wise, I actually picked up Most Wanted a few months back. To be fair it was a decent racer, speedy and good to knock about with. For some reason she kept freezing up on me on the very final getaway mission though. Took her back and got RE4. Now she's a classy bird...

But the disks are usally green and blue copies with crap scanned covers printed on toilet paper.

Yeah, the last couple of years of the PS1 was just a floor scattered with CDRs labelled "THPS2".

In Hong Kong PS2s are the same now.

NFS1 was great, then EA sacked the Pioneer team behind it, took it in house and ruined it.

It took until NFS:MW to get the series up to anything like the quality its success should merit

^Getting pretty disturbing now... And that's coming from ME...Smilie

Anyway, I'm definitely not looking forward to this. I hated NFS: Underground from the bottom of my heart, with all the crappy programming bugs in it. Surprises me I still played that game for so long cuz I just HAD to get to the end of the Underground mode... Never did though, crappy crap game... NFS used to be so much fun...

If they got some insane developer to make it again it might be pretty good. The best thing about the old ones were the cheats. You can't possibly imagine how awesome driving around in big T-Rex is until you've done it. Or an outhouse. Or a log. Or a rock... Or that insanely fast car that was impossible to control... Ah good times...
