me2!!! my dad has the old is300 and i actually tried the new one and the old engine is way more quiet than the new one... and as u sed more tuney looks better higher potential for body moddin

Just would like to let everyone know that the Need for Speed Carbon wiki has been compiled with the most updated information.

The wiki is free to anyone to edit, but please only add or remove information you're 98% sure about. Also, please don't change the markup and the layout, GT and I worked for a while to get it right.

The wiki can be edited by anyone. The front page can only be edited by a select few. If those people have time, the front page will be updated. But the wiki will usually contain the latest info.

EA_smoothie mentioned in passing that IGN would have new info by this Tuesday.

The Camaro Concept has not been confirmed at all. The Brazillian EA website has 3 cars listed as exclusive for the Collector's Edition. Check out the wiki for more.

I looged onto NFSU expecting a demo and found nothing . What the +#*% are EA doing ? The game comes out in like two weeks and us PC gamers STILL haven't been able to play it on the PC .

It will probably be just like MW, something like one week before release, if there is a demo at all. Just have to be patient. But I will say I feel dissed by EA being a PC user. I know consoles are more popular, but come on. But I am happy that the PC version is cheaper than any of the console versions, so that kind of makes up for it.

Haha, i have never seen people getting addicted for a DEMO. But you guys are close.

Its like you havent got your pills today.

What I wonder is : Will Carbon work on new Windows Vista??

Cento_1307 · Post by **Cento_1307** » 16 Oct 2006, 21:10

no cause EA don't like VISTA...

of course it will VISTA should run anything that XP will

Kid Cro · Post by **Kid Cro** » 16 Oct 2006, 21:13

Regarding to your way of thinking then XP should run anything that 98 can!! And it doesn't!

Flameking · Post by **Flameking** » 16 Oct 2006, 21:37

that is true kid cro. some of my old games that were made for 98 and ME cant run on XP at all

Kid Cro · Post by **Kid Cro** » 16 Oct 2006, 21:50

Well I know coz I had same problem! On example EA's Superbike 2001 won't start on XP!

darknight788 · Post by **darknight788** » 16 Oct 2006, 22:10

PU works on XP SP2
BACK ON TOPIC---- i think it was prince who said that EA doesnt legally have to release a demo and he is right. if EA were samrt they would see how siked we are on this forum and say pfft we dont need a demo they are going to buy the game anyways, thats my 2 cents

No, XP has a compatabilty mode, that helped win9x games run on XP. Where as VISTA is derived from XP, as such as long as MS hasn't broken or 'corrected' to much anything that run on XP should run on VISTA fine.

Some new timbits:

My deepest apologies as I did not mean to start the fire. I was hoodwinked, bamboozled, led astray, misinformed, and tricked.

Due to a mix up (on who's fault I will not say), the shots will not be posted on IGN until tomorrow and the official site on Wednesay.

Again, I'm sorry to get hopes up.
