Advantages: fun to play
Disadvantages: none
Need for Speed Carbon for the PSP is a game in the Need for Speed series and is based on the console versions of the game it was made by Electronics Arms and released in 2006.
The game is set in the fictionally city Coast City and has a different story to the version on the consoles and includes a few new cars the Audi TT and the Chevrolet Cobalt SS for you to play with.
As in all the games there is plenty of different game types for you to choose from with the main one being the story mode where you have to win races to advance through the ranks and become the most wanted racer.
There is plenty of cars to choose from and each one can be customised a bit to your liking.
The music is pretty good with decent soundtracks on it, the audio in the cut scenes and game play is good.
Controls/Graphics
The controls are simple to learn and easy to use, these should cause you no problems, as with all the Need for Speed games the graphics are pretty good with the landscape being fairly detailed but the game runs fairly smoothly though.
Difficulty
The game is pretty slow to play and advance but it is not hard to complete as even on the harder levels the computer players are not really that quick and do not take much practice for you to beat.
Value for Money
With plenty of cars to choose from and different race types you can keep on playing this game and each time it will be slightly different, the game is pretty addictive at times and you can easily play it again once you have completed it.
My rating 6 out of 10
Summary: fun game to play easy to get into
