Official NFSC Boxart ?

Post by Skyline_man »

Surfing the internet... i luckily came across some kind of Need For Speed Carbon boxart, at first, i thought it was another fan-made boxart, but after searching and looking at some different sites, i found the same boxart in most of the sites that had the boxart shown.

<center><img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/X360 Carbon.jpg"> <img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/XBOX Carbon.jpg"> <img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/PS2 Carbon.jpg"></center>
<center><img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/Carbon DS.jpg"> <img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/GBA Carbon.jpg"> <img src="http://www.nfsunlimited.net/news/PSP carbon.jpg"></center>

Unfortunately i couldnt find any bigger sizes for those boxarts, but for sure there will be when they are officially announced.

Stay tuned...

Damn!
Cause the Box art for PSP, Game Boy and so on shows the Skyline (Or at least I think so) I realy fear that the Skyline will be a PSP exclusive car! :evil:

I could puke if I think about it!
I loved the 2000 Civic SI Coupe most. Bad enough that it won't be in anyway.
But they couldn't "remove" the Skyline for the PC! :twisted:

Are you sure it's a Skyline and not a Lancer EVO IX? I honestly don't know how you can tell from a screenshot that small.

Look at the PSP Link.
Cause of the round taillight I think it's a Skyiline. Just Hope I'm wrong...

Yeah, but look at the roof spikes. I've only seen those on the Lancer Evo.

Those look pretty real to me. Smoothie did say the box art will have two cars on it (the main version of Carbon) but I honestly don't think they look that great.

First of all, they don't concentrate on the cars hard enough. They need to zoom in more on the Lancer and Challenger because there is a lot of space wasted to the environment. Same with the collector's edition...they need to focus more on the car.

OR, they could have done something in the style of NFS MW...a car powersliding/drifting, viewed from the side...but altered, so the right side you can see the edge of the cliff...and your opponent is seen in the reflection of your car (the way the cops were seen in the reflection of the BMW on the MW box art).

As for the handheld box art...it's just plain horrible. It looks like they just took a random picture from in the game and stuck it on the front. I think it would have been better if they would have put only one car viewed from the front...over a scene from the city...sort of like, the car is dominating the city (which would go well with the title, "Own the city")

EDIT: By the way, where's the PC box art?

EDIT 2: I'm pretty sure the gold car pictured on the handheld console box arts is the Lancer EVO because you can see the "spikes" on the edge of its roof...

Hell yea! :shock:
I'm so... (don't say it :D )
The car on hte PSP Cover couldn't be a Skyline!
It got 4 doors!
And that is no round taillight... It's the damn red circle around the EA logo. :lol:
So I agree with 2furio that it might be an EVO cause of the "spikes" on the roof.

Oh yea Hope again taht the Skyiline would be included in the PC version! 8)

Now that i look closely i think Gardner is right, also the fact that only an EVO has spikes on the roof and its a 4-door.......
i just hope like a million others that skyline isn't a PSP/DS/GBA exclusive..........:-(

This wasn't confirmed if the box art was gonna come out like this... So they might think of something else. ;)
